    अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय योग दिवस सारी सीमाओं को लांघते हुए योग के सार्वभौमिक रूप के दर्शन करता है। योग हमारे ऋषियों की हजारों वर्षों तक की अथक तपस्या का परिणाम हैं। ‘समत्वम् योग उच्यते' अर्थात सुख-दुःख; सम और विषम दोनों परिस्थितियों में समान रहने का सूत्र देता है। योग जब जीवन में उतरता है तो जीव तर जाता है। जब हम योग से जुड़ते हैं तो न केवल हम अपने शरीर, आत्मा और भावनाओं से जुड़ते हैं बल्कि हम विराट ब्रह्माण्ड और विराट सत्ता से जुड़ जाते हैं और फिर न केवल हम अपनी समस्याओं को निपटा सकते हैं बल्कि हम पर्यावरण और जलवायु परिवर्तन से भी निपट सकते हैं इसलिये करें योग रहें निरोग।

    Hindus & The Sanatan Dharma (Pujya Sadhviji)

    Play Episode Listen Later May 31, 2022 2:44


    One of the most amazing facts about Hinduism is that traditional Hindus don't call themselves Hindus and they don't call their religion Hinduism! The word Hindu is not found in any of the Hindu scriptures. The word Hindu was actually used by those who had come from outside India to refer to the people living in the Indus Valley, on the banks of the Sindhu River. So the word Hindu referred to the place that we lived, rather than to the religion that we practiced. To Hindus, our religion is called Sanatan Dharma. In this teaching, Sadhviji shares that it is Sanatan Dharma, not Hinduism, that forms the foundation of our traditions. Watch and listen as Sadhviji beautifully explains!
