The scientific yoga …free will free wont and neuron interaction.

Lord Krishna speaks about the glorious yoga system . Yoga means to link with God . To link with God, we need to know the uncoupling process , we can not be coupled with the  illusions of this world if we want to understand pure trancendental knowledge. It’s like embracing a person tightly and screaming, “Let me go.” The commercial yoga groups understand very little of yoga. It’s a monetary show as far as they understand,  good for money good for some fame , that’s not yoga .

Lord Krishna says this in His Bhagavad Gita.

“Everyone is forced to act helplessly according to the qualities he has acquired from the modes of material nature; therefore, no one can refrain from doing something, not even for a moment.”

Lord Krishna has defined a systematic process , from karma yoga to niskama karma yoga, then jnana yoga,  then jnana sunya bhakti , this is the  beginnings of  much more development of the yoga of devotion process which has began to be accompanied by stronger trancendental knowledge.  Trancendental knowledge also comes in various stages of  development , there is in reality, no limits to trancendental knowledge. Bhakti is accompanied by and takes help from  karma and jnana in the beginnings of the Bhakti process. In the  phase of jnana sunya Bhakti , the  stronger development  phase of trancendental knowledge, the devotees hear increasingly and directly the Srimad Bhagavatam , and by the blessings and grace of all the param para acaryas can study their litratures and meditate on the lila pastimes described by them in their books . This accompanied by a rich jnana sunya bhakti leads to  increasingly deeper meditation, so this is pure Bhakti and it is  leading to purely  enriched Astanga like  yoga , but unique because of being soaked with devotion and remembrances of Krishna lila gained  through the processes of hearing , chanting and remembrances . Srila Ragganatha das Goswami in his meditations and instructions on  Krishna consciousness lead us to the  glories and science of yoga .

The Professor of neuroscience Michael Egnor has made a point that brain neurons fire in different ways according to discipline and habit changes , those addicted to certain behaviours are almost forced to act due to psychological modes of nature . Modes of nature can change, and patterns of life and habits can change .That Krishna is clearly telling us , we have free will , we can strengthen our consciousness and exercise a free wont . Ie .we will not let bad things degrade our consciousnes,  but we will rather elevate our consciousness through better choices and feel the benefit.

Unfortunately, low class leaders and scientific materialism, as well as the Darwinian hypothesis, drive everyone to become like street dogs following their senses anywhere and lifting their legs on anyone. The Vedic way is one of elevated consciousness and progressive social and spiritual mobility for all . When the intelligentsia return so will real education,  the sophisticated animals will be forced back in their baskets .
