Christian Yoga?
12 REASONS WHY YOGA IS NOT GOOD FOR CHRISTIANS
Would you agree that there are spiritual forces we cannot see? You may be surprised to learn that yoga, which many think is “just exercise,” is actually a spiritual practice. Christians may think twice before starting a yoga practice — please.
1. Yoga is Dedicated to a different lord (“Lord Shiva the Destroyer” in Hinduism, known as “the first yogi”)
2. Yoga leads people away from Christ. Yoga means “to yoke” – and it's a different yoke than the one Jesus refers to “For My yoke is easy and My burden is light” (Matt. 11:30).
3. Yoga poses are “offerings to the 330 million Hindu gods” (Dr. George Alexander). Acts 15:29 says to “abstain from THINGS offered to idols.”
4. Yoga has a spiritual nature that is psychic and metaphysical. This is one reason why experts, such as Professor Subhas Tiwari of the Hindu University of America says, “Yoga is Hinduism.”
5. Yoga is “the missionary arm of New Age spirituality.” Many Christians have been drawn into New Age spirituality and metaphysics through the “doors” of Yoga and Tai Chi. Both are mystical philosophical and religious systems cleverly disguised as “just exercise.”
6. So-called “Christian yoga” was founded by Hindu leader A.K. Mozumdar — “Christian yoga” IS yoga. We cannot combine religion (Hinduism) with a relationship (knowing Jesus Christ as Lord).
