Environmental Toxins and the Need for Detoxification
In today's world, exposure to toxins is inevitable, making regular detoxification a helpful practice to minimise their effects on the body.
Avidya and Environmental Degradation
The degradation of the environment, both internally and externally, stems from "avidya," or ignorance. This ignorance leads to a misperception of the self as the performer of actions, clouding the true, actionless Self.
Ego, Environmental Issues, and the Deeper Teachings
An egoistic existence and experience of the world contribute to pollution, deforestation, animal cruelty, global warming, and other environmental concerns. These issues can lead individuals to explore the deeper teachings of Yoga, Advaita Vedanta, and the Upanishads, which emphasise environmental ethics and interconnectedness.
Awakening and Reinterpretation
A new era emerges, reinterpreting ancient philosophies and teachings to address current environmental, social, political, religious, scientific, and cosmic chaos with compassion and harmony.
The Power of Choice and Decision-Making
Every decision, big or small, has consequences. Learning from experiences and aligning choices with core values are crucial for well-being. Decisions impact not only individual lives but also the lives of others.
The Importance of Proper Detoxification
Detoxification, when done correctly, can support health and well-being. It is essential to choose a safe and effective method to avoid setbacks and achieve optimal results.
