Yoga has taken the world by storm. From the wives of Duck Dynasty to women in the Church, Yoga has become the major means to find inner peace. Unfortunately, this form of exercise is steeped in Buddhism, Hinduism, and other eastern religions. The very act of participating in it will invite the fallen angelic beings behind these religions into your life via the poses and meditations you do. From Ananta's pose (which was beast that transported the Hindu god Vishnu) to Crescent pose (alluding to Allah and Islamic war symbolism) to Lotus, all the poses pay homage to Hindu gods, Buddhist Beliefs, and other eastern religions. The basic mediating pose (featured in the picture above) is what Buddhist Monks and Hindu Brahams do when they try to mediate and connect to their gods.
What is more alarming than Yoga's ties to Eastern Religions, is that it is now becoming a force to destroys marriages. In the Church there are many wives who after practicing Yoga are now becoming contentious and even leaving their husbands. This so called exercising that is meant to bring you inner peace, is actually destroying relationships and creating chaos in the family. As Christians we should not be seeking inner peace with pagan practices! We should be seeking the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ! To practice something from an eastern religion is to betray our Lord and Savior! We invite the demons and devils with Hinduism into our homes and into our lives by doing Yoga.
It is time as Christians, that we not be lukewarm and allow ourselves to be practicing pagan poses. There is power in everything you do. That power either comes from the Kingdom of Heaven or the Kingdom of Darkness. You either invite the Holy Spirit or demonic spirits. There is no harmless playing around with other religious practices. If you try something, you invite a plethora of pernicious phantoms into your person.
It is staggering how when I returned to the Bay Area, the airports no longer have chapels, but instead Yoga Meditation Rooms! I also have found in my local grocery store, that was owned by Christians, now carries Hindu essence (not regular generic incense). It is evident that the eastern religions are surging and taking down roots in America and the rest of the world.
Another exercise to beware of is Zumba. This exercise is from Africa, but the dancing and chanting comes from pagan tribal worship. Be on the alert and investigate what inspired and is behind your exercises, dancing, martial arts, and etc. Do not ignorantly rush into something that could have a major effect on your soul for Satan.
