Quotes From the Book:
“Yoga is not a religion. It is a science, science of well-being, science of youthfulness, science of integrating body, mind and soul.” – Amit Ray, Yoga and Vipassana
“Yoga makes our body vibrantly alive so that we can feel the sensations of the body. Vipassana brings calmness and tranquility of mind. The integrated structure is necessary for aliveness, activeness and calmness reflected together in our life.” – Amit Ray, Yoga and Vipassana
“Mystical bliss, joy and rapture are part of both yoga and vipassana. When the mind is concentrated, purified, bright, unblemished, free from defects, pliant and steady, this positive joy arises.” – Amit Ray, , Yoga and Vipassana
“Yoga and Vipassana are the two most time tested ancient techniques for keeping the body, mind and spirit in harmony and in sync. There is no contradiction between yoga and vipassana. They are complementary to each other.” – Amit Ray, , Yoga and Vipassana
“Systematic yoga and vipassana opens the “Dasham Duar” the mystical tenth spiritual gateway located at the top of the skull.” – Amit Ray, , Yoga and Vipassana
“Combining these two ancient teachings (yoga and vipassana) in a seamless manner, which will bring maximum benefits to the meditators, is not at all a challenge. It is just removal of some mental blocks. Ideally speaking, this combination should be done based on scientific, clinical and neurobiological studies and the combined structure should be made brick by brick, layer by layer in a flawless manner as a homogeneous composition. ” – Amit Ray, , Yoga and Vipassana
