Is Yoga Christian?

Yoga is NOT Christian, Yoga is NOT Biblical!

Yoga is one of the six classic systems of Hindu philosophy that practices certain disciplines to achieve freedom from the limitations of the flesh and lead to the fulfillment of knowledge. The goal of Yoga is not to achieve peace within, channeling, or the working of miracles, but the acquirement of knowledge. In fact, the Yoga doctrine insists that physical and mental training should be used only as a means to spiritual needs.

Yoga practice SUPPOSEDLY forms a ladder to perfect knowledge through eight steps:

self-control,
religious observance,
postures,
regulation of the breath,
restraint of the senses,
steadying of the mind,
meditation, and
profound contemplation.

According to Hindu beliefs, Brahman is the principle source of the universe. This divine intelligence exists in all beings. Thus all the Hindu gods and goddesses are manifestations of the one Brahman. Hinduism is based on the concept of reincarnation, in which all living beings, from plants to gods, live in a cycle of living and dying.

Life is determined by the law of karma. According to karma, the quality of rebirth is determined by the moral behavior displayed in the previous life. In this view, life on Earth is regarded as temporary and a challenge. The goal of existence is to reach liberation from the cycle of rebirth and death and enter into an indescribable state called moksha (liberation). The ones who reach this state no longer struggle with the cycle of life and death.

Is there such a thing as Christian Yoga? Yoga is a form of Eastern mysticism and is deceiving those who engage in it.

The February 1989 TBN Praise The Lord newsletter declared that Paul and Jan Crouch had interviewed Schuller and cleared him of the “false” charge that he promotes the New Age concepts “that God is everything [and] that Christ ‘consciousness’ is already inherently resident in each man [and woman]....” Yet Schuller’s Possibilities magazine, Summer 1986, promoted those very lies: “...nothing exists except God. There is no other reality.... The Christ spirit dwells in every human being whether the person knows it or not.” Unity, a totally New Age mind-science cult (“God is everything,” “Christ consciousness in everyone,” reincarnation, yoga, etc.) benefits from Schuller’s repeated appearances at its churches, headquarters, and functions. He commends and encourages Unity to keep up its good work and grow larger. This paragraph taken from The Berean Call newsletter July 1989, by Dave Hunt.

The Dalai Lama teaches that it is possible for all human beings to eventually become a Buddha, a being of the highest wisdom and compassion and power - - - through a method called Deity Yoga. Deity Yoga is a special conscious act of imagining that you are already "god-like" and are able to create our own reality - - - that you are Buddha.

Hitler also pursued the powers promised by “Deity Yoga.” The occult powers which the Dalai Lama offers as the key to
world peace, Hitler hoped to use for world domination! The bodies of scores of Tibetan Buddhist monks, whose “psychic energies” were being used by Hitler, were found in the ruins of Berlin.

The unbiblical practice of Christian Yoga is being sought after by many professing Christians. They just jump in head first without knowing any better. Even Hindu's recognize that Christian Yoga is still Hindu.

Pope John Paul II had personal diplomacy with Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims and the supporters of many other religions. He was not out of line with New Age events. John Paul II openly promoted the same belief: That united prayers for peace of every kind, from yoga to witchcraft rituals, are releasing powerful “spiritual energies” to heal our planet. The Roman Catholic Church, like the World Council of Churches, has been promoting global cooperation among ALL religions for many years.

Should TRUE Christians practice yoga? The 5/19/05 Christianity
Today online has an article in which the author testifies that yoga has never had any negative effect on her because she considers it merely to be stretching exercises and her focus is on the Lord, not on some Hindu deity. She stated that Paul says that a believer may have perfect liberty to eat meat sacrificed to idols, so WHY wouldn’t this Passage apply to yoga as well? Is yoga a helpful and healthy exercise, as believed by many "professing Christians?" It is actually possible for people to become demonized or driven to suicide or suicidal thoughts through yoga. The tragic thing is; increasing numbers of evangelical churches are sponsoring classes in yoga. If you want to be physically fit, you should do exercises specifically designed to do that. Discuss this with your doctor! BUT - - - IF you want to realize your inborn "godhood" (self-realization) and achieve union with Brahman (the universal soul) AN IDOL, then practice yoga, which is designed to do that. BUT - - - remember - - - there is NO such “realization.” But, Satan and his demons are capable of leading the naive into this delusional state.

People think they know better, and laugh when someone warns of the danger. They ignorantly state that yoga is just "exercise" and cannot harm anybody.

The Jesus of the Bible does NOT and NEVER will endorse ANY kind of yoga. Yoga, in any way, shape or form, has the ability to corrupt the mind and undo a Christian's faith. Its goal is the conversion of individuals to an occultic, pantheistic world view.

Christian Yoga, like all yoga, is part of the occult based Hindu religion. Re-labeling yoga for undiscerning westerners does NOT change the facts. Yoga is yoga!

Pantheism is the belief that Almighty God is NOT a personality, but that all laws and forces of the self-existing universe are god, that god is everywhere and everything is god. Do NOT mess around with the occult! Believe in the Creator God of the Universe!

1 John 5:10-12 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. [11] And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. (KJV)
