I am a Bible believing Christian. With that said, one CAN do yoga ... the physical part and still be Christian.
Yoga is just exercise. You don't have to do any visualizations or "OOHHHMMMing" in order to do the exercises. The physical part of yoga is nothing more than controlled stretching and such. Yoga and Tai Chi are excellent for those of us with arthritis, blood pressure issues, physical injuries, etc.
Yoga is only demonic when you start doing the stupid visualizations, moanings, "opening chakras" etc etc.
When I do any form of exercise, instead of listening to music I either: listen to the Bible being read, listen to a sermon, or pray to our Father in Heaven.
Quoting: OnTheFence Been reading on Glp for many many years. Don't post or say much. But I have to say this... this is in my top 5 most retarded ,uneducated threads I've seen. Yoga demonic. Lmao.
You Christians are so brain washed it's scary!!
Quoting: 82 There is nothing called "yoga" without involving philosophy or spiritual beliefs. Yoga is not as simple as physical exercises that are good for your physical health.
Anyone who participates in yoga has convinced themselves the philosophy of yoga is helpful and the correct practice.
What is the philosophy or the spiritual belief system that is behind yoga?
Yoga is based on the belief that man and “god” are one. This “god” is the Hindu infinite impersonal Brahman who is not the true God of the King James Bible.
Yoga originated in the belief system of pantheism (Greek pan=all, theos=god) which says that everything is an impersonal “god”. Pantheism believes that the universe or the nature is a synonym of god. Pantheism is paganism; belief in a false concept of God.
The person who practices yoga consciously or unconsciously believes that he can change things in his spiritual and physical health by discovering his inner self. They believe that all the answers are within. This is self-worship and a false philosophy.
They practice self-control.
They have not received Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
The goal of the biblical sanctification is total surrender to God making us dependent on God for all aspects of our lives.
The pantheistic self-discipline (including yoga) seeks to live independent of God's control in our life. It is a self-controlled life.
