The World Community Service Centre founded by Yogiraj Vethathiri Maharishi has been teaching Integrated Yoga practices consisting of.

• Simplified Physical Exercise for maintaining good health by curing diseases and improving the immunity power against diseases.
• Simplified Meditation and Introspection Methods to keep the mind in peaceful state and to lead a virtuous way of life.
• Simplified Kayakalpa Exercise to conserve life energy to maintain youthfulness and ensure longevity of life.

Contents Of The Course:

A set of exercises has been designed as synthesis of different yogasana practices. This can be practiced by any person above the age of eight. The contents of simplified exercises are as follows:

• Hand exercises
• Leg exercises
• Neuro-muscular breathing exercises
• Eye exercises
• Kapalapathy
• Makarasana Part 1 & 2
• Massage
• Acu-pressure
• Relaxation

These Physical exercises ensure proper circulation of blood, heat and air in the body.

The Foot Reflexology in the leg exercise activates the nerves and correct Electrical imbalances. Breathing exercise ensures increase in the intake of oxygen which will help to purify the blood.

Eventhough most of these exercises are helpful to cure some diseases like arthritis, sinasitis, spondilatis etc., they are mainly useful for prevention of occurrence of diseases.

Astanga Yoga (Yoga in eight steps) evolved by Pathanjali Saint has been simplified to suit the needs of modern way of life. The principles and practices adopted in this simplified meditation are based on scientific principles.

It is a fact that human being is always in emotional mood due to hereditary imprints and environmental factors. By doing this meditation, the frequency of mind is reduced from Beta (14-40 cycles per second – emotional mood) to Alfa (8-13 cps – awareness stage). The practitioner is able to keep the mind at pituitary gland (Master gland for five senses) and do his/her activities (Thought, word and deed) with awareness of the consequences. This will enable any practitioner to keep the mind in a peaceful state and to develop willpower, avoid pains / diseases and also to solve problems.

This is another important practice in this system of yoga. With the willpower derived by meditation, the practitioner will be able to develop positive thinking, can be free from desires which can not be fulfilled, can neutralize anger and eradicate worries.

By doing this practice, one is able to understand the “Causes and Effect System” of Nature. He will adopt moderation in food, physical activities, sleep, sex, and thought force so that he/she will neither ignore nor over indulge in these five aspects. This will enable the individual to lead a virtuous way of life with three phases namely morality (not to cause harm physically or mentally), duty (due to society) and charity (helping others by physical labour, material and knowledge)

Science of Kayakalpa delineates the manner in which the human body can be immortalized. Kaya Kalpa Yoga has a three-fold objective:

• Withstanding the ageing process:
• Maintaining health and youthfulness and
• Postponing one’s death to suit one’s wishes.Tli

Kayakalpa comprises two important exercises:

• Recycling of vital energy and
• Toning of nervous system.

If these two exercises are learnt and practiced regularly immunity of individual will be raised to a remarkable instant.

The practice enables and equips one to maintain physical and mental health, further spiritual development and rejuvenate the physical body to withstand the ageing process. The practice will benefit everyone, regardless of sex, race, religion, caste, to enjoy a happy and energetic life.

Thus, these Integrated Yoga practices will enable the practitioner to develop concentration and maintain good health, happiness, peace and also to preserve the intensity of life energy (Bio-current) to lead a perfect life and do the activities which are usefull to self and the Society.
