[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These arguments are exactly why we no longer belong to a mainstream religious organization (We attend a Unity church).  Seriously?  You are arguing about which version of "God" is acceptable?  First, if your God's ego is so fragile that he insists on worship, that's a problem.  Second, all the words we use to describe"God" are just words.  The loving, creative Source of all that is, is a little beyond language don't you think?

Many fingers point to the same moon.  All paths towards spirituality are equally valid.  Yoga practice is highly personal.  No one owns yoga except the person on the mat.

Serious comprehension issues here.

OPs first post is self explanatory.  Acknowledge/ accept yoga for what it is, including its origins, the tattva behind asanas and the spiritual aspect of it. Don't varnish it with theories just to make it likable/acceptable to you. And don't call yourself a "yogi" without understanding what being a yogi means. Hindus have never objected to the practice and use of their culture , systems and traditions as long as you don't misrepresent it or use it for personal greed/ exploitation. Our prayers start with "lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu"  which says a lot.  [/quote]
