Where ancient wisdom meets cosmic rhythm
Where the Seeker becomes the Silence

One day, Lord Shiva sat deep in meditation. A disciple approached and waited nearby. He asked, "Lord Shiva, what is yoga?" Shiva neither opened his eyes nor replied.

Another disciple came and waited. He too asked, "Lord Shiva, what is yoga?" Again, Shiva neither opened his eyes nor replied. Eventually, both disciples left.

Then, four disciples came. Over time, the number around him changed: sometimes disciples gathered (adding), sometimes they departed (subtracting), sometimes their numbers grew (multiplying), sometimes they split apart (dividing). This continued for years, decades, centuries.

Many disciples were reborn and returned to Shiva. They saw him unchanged: in the same place, same posture, same meditation. Shocked, they left again.

While returning along a different path, they rested overnight under a tree. By coincidence, they all slept beneath the same species of tree. Falling into deep sleep simultaneously, they heard a voice in their subconscious – the tree itself seemed to speak, conveying Shiva's message:

"You all asked the same question: 'What is yoga?' What is happening now is yoga. What is Infront of us is yoga. What is not Infront of us also yoga.

Upon waking, they rushed back to Lord Shiva. They greeted him and spoke as one: "What is yoga? We came to see/know yoga! What you told us last night..."

Shiva finally opened his eyes. "Ah, you came to see yoga? Yet you are not seeing it now. What you witness here is alreadyyoga. But the yoga you heard and experienced last night, and the yoga you experience now, are different. When I open my eyes, I feel shunyata (emptiness) – it is Shunya Yoga. Simultaneously, what you heard and experienced was *purnata* (fullness) Purnata Yoga, which guided you back."

"One's shunyata can be another's purnata . One's *purnata* can be another's shunya. Yoga has no day or night, no years or decades. It happens in every breath: the inhale, the hold, the exhale. Go within and experience. Then you will find yoga in everything."

"Whether adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing – the forms differ, but the essence is the same. So it is with life: illusions are countless, but the truth is one. Witnessing the truth, That is yoga.

" Happy Int'l fake yoga day "
