Sharing The Christmas – A Tradition Of The Heart
At Natha Yoga Center we have celebrated Christmas with all our dearest friends on 22nd December and I am happy to share here with you some impressions from the evening…! In a warm and heart full atmosphere we came together all the teams and friends of the yoga center and we chatted, laughed, meditated, eat, enjoyed the reunion and of course we received our personalized gifts and mottos for the evening.
It was wonderful to see how after another year the love we share for each other is growing more mature and how the beginners are growing, how friends stand by, how the Christmas spirit gathers around the Christmas tree bringing out the best and most beautiful in all of us. The chefs of Ambrosia (the vegetarian restaurant in Concordia) have prepared a delicious Christmas meal with Danish, Romanian and international recipes of the season…of course we had “sarmale” and of course we also had “ris a l’amande”!
The Yearly Awards
In such wonderful atmosphere and surrounded by many dears to my heart, there were the yearly Natha awards, an already traditional moment in our school when the achievements and the peak of results of the team members are underlined.
Sahaj and Arthur were making the humoristic moment of the evening with jokes adapted to the yogic life-style in Natha, a delicious moment of laughing on our own rigidity and mistakes. (some of their jokes come in the end of this post).
The pantomime part was another enchanting moment. We had two teams Men and Women of courageous volunteers from the public and they have delighted us with the spontaneous of acting out the drama and humor of some of the mischievous pantomime subjects.
In the end the intuitive Women’s team have won the pantomime contest (they were having the mysterious feminine intuition on their side) and the Men’s team greeted them with a proper chevaliers’ bow. It was wonderful to see the two teams specifically working with their tasks, displaying the magnificent game of polarity for the audience.
This lovely party ended around 5 am, leaving us enough time to prepare for the daily activities.
I am leaving you here with some of the jokes we enjoyed as part of the humorous moment that followed during the end of the evening.
Laughter and Fun
Q. What did the yogi tell the door-to-door salesperson who came to his home selling vacuum cleaners?
A. Too many attachments…
A young woman who was worried about her habit of biting her fingernails down to the quick was advised by a friend to take up yoga. She did, and soon her fingernails were growing normally. Her friend asked her if yoga had totally cured her nervousness. “No,” she replied, “but now I can reach my toe-nails so I bite them instead.”
Three Yogis are doing meditative in a remote cave. One day a sound is heard from outside the cave. After about six months, one of the yogis says, “Did you hear that goat?” Once again, there was silence. About a year later, one of the other Yogis says, “That wasn’t a goat; it was a mule.” Again, there was silence. About two years later the third yogi says, “If you two don’t stop arguing, I’m leaving.”
There were once four karma yogis: Everyone, Someone, Anyone and Noone. They had a very important task to do. Everyone was sure that Someone will do it. Anyone could have done it, but Noone did it in the end. Someone was angry because it’d have been Everyone’s job. Everyone thought that Anyone could have done it, but Noone realized that Noone will do it in the end. In the end, Everyone was angry at Someone because Noone did what Anyone could’ve done.
Levels of tiredness while practicing yoga:
1) Falling asleep after coming down form sirshasana, and not remembering if you did sirshasana or you are about to do it.
2) Falling asleep while doing pranayama.
3) Falling asleep in meditation, dreaming that you are meditating and falling asleep in the meditation.

Mitropolitul Serafim de Pireu: “Evreii sunt de vină pentru situaţia actuală din Grecia şi din lume”

Serafim de Pireu: “Adolf Hitler a fost un instrument al sionismului mondial finanţat de către evreul Rotschild”
Mitropolitul Serafim de Pireu
Mitropolitul Serafim al Pireului a declarat pe postul de televiziune “Mega TV” că există o conspiraţie pentru a subjuga Grecia. Acesta a susţinut că evreii sunt de vină pentru criza economică din Grecia şi de fapt, din întreaga lume.
Mai mult, există o conspiraţie a bancherilor evrei care au ca scop distrugerea Greciei şi a Bisericii ortodoxe. Tot conspiraţia sionistă încearcă să distrugă familia, promovand monoparentalismul şi căsătoriile între homosexuali.
Adolf Hitler a fost organul sionismului internaţional si a fost finanţat de Rotschild cu scopul unic de a-i convinge pe evrei să plece din Europa şi să coboare în Israel ca să înfiinţeze Noul Imperiu . El a adăugat că bancherii evrei ca: Rockefeller, Rothschild şi Soros au controlul sistemului bancar internaţional care controleaza globalizarea.
Aceste declaraţii au fost făcute în direct la televizor de Serafim, invitat la o dezbatere despre criza economică şi protestele din Grecia.
O bună parte din umanitate trăieşte dramatic epoca de maximă virulenţă a imperialismului evreiesc al cărui scop este instaurarea Republicii Universale sub conducerea plutocratici iudaice.
Cu un program istoric perfect etapizat, folosind o varietate largă de mijloace şi metode de la cele psihologice la cele economice, iudaismul a reuşit să stăpânească şi să folosească în vederea scopului propus trei state occidentale: Franţa, Anglia şi Statele Unite care s-au transformat în portdrapelul desfiinţării statelor naţionale şi al federalizării lor în vederea realizării voinţei conducerii supreme a iudaismului mondial concretizată în Republica Universală.
Structurile acesteia au fost construite cu abilitate după cel de-al doilea război mondial. Se numesc: O.N.U.; Consiliul de Securitate; Fondul Monetar Internaţional; Comunitatea Europeană; NATO; Banca Mondială.
Comentariu Ortodox liber:
Mitropolitul Serafim al Pireului nu este la prima sa interventie televizată de asemenea virulenţă împotriva jidovilor care conduc acum lumea şi o supun la tot felul de experimente în vederea instalării împărăţiei lui antihrist. Personal cred că nu o să “păţească” nimic din partea Sinodului Ortodox al Greciei care încă mai are o ţinută dreaptă în faţa duşmanilor ortodoxiei.
@ Mihai Stoian,
I wish you a wonderful Christmas and New Year.
I want to thank you with all my heart for your inspiration and the depth in which you have touched my life in the last year. I have had many ups and downs, beautiful revealing moments and desperately challenging ones :-). I am deeply grateful to be in a spiritual system that supports, nourishes and facilities the journey that i am beginning to realise is mostly based on me – my aspiration, states, attitude and choices!
With Love and the most heartfelt wishes,
Isobel
@ isobel

I am so happy to see the danish humour flourishing :))
Regarding the last part I have a confession to make about a meditation some years ago:
I was doing laya yoga meditation, late in the night and tired, and somehow I fell asleep ( I wonder how I could do that ?!)
Suddenly what woke me up was the sound of a clear voice right in my ears (even though was nobody else in the room)
“Sleeep, sleeep, sleeeep in this meditation.
When you will wake up, it will be the right time to go to bed.”
(Dormi, dormi in aceasta meditatie
Cand te vei trezi va fi chiar timpul sa mergi la culcare)
🙂
The impulse I got with this divine hilarious wordplay really woke me up and since then I rarely sleep in meditation 🙂
@ Heartist Should be romanian or international humor? 🙂
Happy you! I want this voice so much!! 🙂
some joks for you:
All students write at work assiduously about “What would I do if I were the employer?”.
One stands with hands on chest and meditate.
– Bill, you do not write?
– No, sir, I look forward for my secretary.
Why men with BMWs are successful to women?
Simple, they read between the lines … Be My Wife!
Two Indians went through the woods when, at some point in the distance they see the smoke rising from a fire.
