YOGA ROCKING EXERCISE

The Spinal Roll or Rocking Exercise

This is an excellent exercise to overcome the drowsiness and stiffness that one feels on waking in the morning. As you do this exercise, you will feel an invigorating sensation from your vertebrae getting a good massage. It will limber up your spine and keep it in a flexible and youthful condition. It is invaluable for those who are using yoga to dodge old age. It will also help you to sleep soundly. Thus, it is a good prescription for insomnia.

You may feel a little clumsy and awkward the first day when you do this exercise. Some people feel like losing their balance and falling down. In a few days you will feel accustomed to the rocking action and will start enjoying it. At that time you can combine rocking with deep breathing. Inhale while rocking backwards and exhale while returning forward.



Technique


Sit down at the end of the exercise pad to make sure that your back will not hit the hard floor. Draw up your knees, and bend your head down. Put your hands under your knees. You can join your hands or not depending on what is easy on you.
Keeping your spine rounded, gently swing back and forth, imitating the swinging motion of a rocking chair. Don’t straighten your spine as you will roll backward or you will find yourself lying flat on your back, unable to swing forward again. Don't roll back too far on your neck. Don’t try doing the rocking exercise too slowly either. Imagine you are a rocking chair in motion. Feel for the massaging action on your spine. Enjoy the fun.
Hint:

Straighten your knees just as you swing backward and then immediately bend them again as you swing forward. Don’t pause after you have swung back but simply continue the to-and-fro movement. Otherwise you may get ‘stuck.’

Time:

Do this exercise four or six times, then lie down to relax until your breath returns to normal again. Take a few deep breaths while still lying on the floor.

Benefits


Makes the spine more flexible and youthful.
Massages all the vertebrae in the neck and spine.
If done in the morning it helps to overcome the drowsiness and stiffness that people often feel on waking up.
It's also very beneficial just before sleep.
The massaging action on the spine tends to relax the whole nervous system and establishes a better connection between the central nervous system and the rest of the body

AN AMAZING GOD

An Amazing God!
How incredible it will be when we meet God face to face and understand who He is! In the meantime, to a large degree, it is a mystery. He has revealed enough of His nature to man, to know that we will never understand all of Him. The more a believer learns about Him, the more he realizes how little he knows. God has been personally active in the world since its creation and yet He is also set apart from it, superior in nature. Thus, we have the mystery of God’s immanence and transcendence.
God’s Immanence and Transcendence
God’s immanence and transcendence relate to His relationship with the created world. They do not refer to His specific actions, but to His relationship with the world. According to the World Book Dictionary, the definition of immanence is, the pervading presence of God in His creation, and the definition of the transcendence of God is to be above and independent of the physical universe. The two attributes are opposite but complimentary, and need to be kept in the proper balance to understand God. He is both superior to, and absent from, His creation and yet very present and active within the universe.
The immanence of God is seen in His presence and activity within nature, with humans, and in history. There are numerous references to God’s immanence in Scripture. His activity within nature is seen in Psalm 65:9-13:
You care for the land and water it; you enrich it abundantly. The streams of God are filled with water to provide the people with grain, for so you have ordained it. You drench its furrows and level its ridges; you soften it with showers and bless its crops. You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance. The grasslands of the desert overflow; the hills are clothed with gladness. The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain; they shout for joy and sing. (NIV)
God’s presence with man is noted in Job 33:4: The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life (NIV). And His activity in history is recorded in Isaiah 63:11: Then his people recalled the days of old, the days of Moses and his people-- where is he who brought them through the sea, with the shepherd of his flock? Where is he who set his Holy Spirit among them, (NIV). These are but a few of the examples of God’s immanence in the world.
Two of the attributes that exemplify God’s immanence are His omnipotence and omnipresence. He has an all-pervading presence and power within the world.
There are also some important implications of God’s immanence. He can, for instance, work indirectly to accomplish His purposes. The practice of medicine exemplifies this in instances in which a doctor or a medication is God’s channel for His activity of healing. God is also free to use individuals who are outside of His chosen people. In the Old Testament, He chose a pagan king, Cyrus, to free the Israelites from bondage. Another implication of God’s immanence is that we should appreciate all of creation since God created it. We can also learn something about God from His creation. Lastly, and most importantly, unbelievers can make a point of contact with God through His creation, primarily, the believers who have His indwelling Spirit.
The other important implication of His immanence, especially seen in His omnipotence and omnipresence, is that God is infinite. He is not limited to a certain spot within nature, He is beyond nature. There is nowhere that He cannot be found. He is infinite in relation to time, for He is timeless. God does not develop or grow. His understanding and wisdom are immeasurable. His power is unlimited and He is completely free of external influences. God is unlimited and unlimitable, unlike anything we experience. Thus, we see God’s transcendence even within His immanence.
In the following passages, both God’s immanence and transcendence are found:
For this is what the high and lofty One says-- he who lives forever, whose name is holy: "I live in a high and holy place, but also with him who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite. (Isaiah 57:15, NIV)
"The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. `For in him we live and move and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, `We are his offspring.' (Acts 17:24, 28, NIV)
God is not only personal, and dwells within man, He is also exalted above all creation. He is active and present in our world, and yet superior, absent and removed from it.
God’s Transcendence
Although some define God as a supreme being, unlimited in scope, He is not a being as humans are. We are finite beings, God is not. He says in Isaiah 55:8-9,
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. (NIV)
But, He is self-consciousness and has a will. He not only is capable of feeling and choosing but of having a reciprocal relationship with other persons. He has names, which demonstrates that he is not an abstract, unknowable being, or a nameless force.
It is impossible to define God. He is in all things, but not equated with all that is. He can never be fully grasped with our finite minds and experiences. Isaiah speaks of this when he writes, Who has understood the mind of the LORD, or instructed him as his counselor? To whom, then, will you compare God? What image will you compare him to? (Isaiah 40:13, 18 NIV). God is a spirit; He is not composed of matter and does not possess a physical nature. Therefore, He is considered transcendent to man.
God is, nonetheless, alive. He is characterized by life and is the vital force, the very basis of life. John writes, For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself. (John 5:26, NIV). He does not derive his life from any external source. He can continue to exist independently of everything else, and, as a matter of fact, there was never a time when He did not exist. He is eternal, even named the Eternal God in Genesis 21:33. He is the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End of all time. In His eternal nature there has never been any quantitative or qualitative change in Him. God said in Malachi 3:6, I the LORD do not change (NIV).
He is infinite in relationship to time and He is infinite in terms of space. He is omnipresent, there is nowhere where He is not found. That concept is impossible for man, who is localized to particular places at particular times, to understand. The psalmist reflects on this trait in Psalm 139:
Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me," even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. (Psalm 139:7-12, NIV)
God is unlimited in time and power. He is able to do all things. God reveals this aspect about Himself in His question to Abraham, Is anything too hard for the LORD? I will return to you at the appointed time next year and Sarah will have a son" (Gen 18:14, NIV). The comparison between man’s and God’s plans is clearly seen: Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails (Prov 19:21, NIV). Jesus teaches about God’s Almighty power by comparing God’s power to man’s power in Matthew 19:26, Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible" (NIV) and in Luke 1:37 it is emphatically stated, For nothing is impossible with God (NIV).
Because there is no limit to God’s power, His plans always come to pass. The Bible says, Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him (Psalm 115:3, NIV).
His power is directly related to His sovereignty. God’s will is never frustrated! What He chooses, He accomplishes. The Psalmist refers to this in Psalm 33:11, But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations (NIV). Although God can accomplish anything that He desires, He cannot and will not act against His nature. He is morally pure and will not do anything that corrupts His holiness.
God is untouched and unstained by the evil in the world. He is absolutely pure and good. Job says of God, So listen to me, you men of understanding. Far be it from God to do evil, from the Almighty to do wrong (Job 34:10, NIV). Holiness also means separation in regard to persons or things. God in His holiness is removed from the world:
God reigns over the nations; God is seated on his holy throne. (Ps 47:8, NIV)
Great is the LORD, and most worthy of praise, in the city of our God, his holy mountain. (Ps 48:1, NIV)
For this is what the high and lofty One says-- he who lives forever, whose name is holy: "I live in a high and holy place, (Isaiah 57:15, NIV)
His holiness can be conveyed to people, places, and things that are associated with Him. The Holy Place in the Temple was holy because of God’s presence. Moses stood in God’s holiness in Exodus 3 during his burning bush experience.
When God’s holiness of applied to his relationships with others, He is righteous. The law of God is righteous because His actions are in accord with the law which he himself has established. The Bible shows the relationship between God’s perfection, and His justice:
He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he. (Deuteronomy 32:4, NIV)
For the LORD is righteous, he loves justice; upright men will see his face. (Ps 11:7, NIV)
God’s justice is his official righteousness. Psalm 50:4 says, He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that he may judge his people (NIV). According to His nature, He is fair in the administration of his law. He does not show favoritism or partiality, Then Peter began to speak: "I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism (Acts 10:34, NIV). God judges each person according to what he has done (Romans 2:6). Anyone who has done wrong will be repaid for his wrong (Colossians 3:25), but for those who confess their sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive them of their sins and purify them from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). For it is God who judges: He brings one down, he exalts another (Ps 75:7, NIV).
A believer can be sure that God will be righteous in His judgment because of His integrity. He is the genuine God because He represents things as they really are. He proves true because of His faithfulness. God keeps all his promises. His faithfulness is a function of his unlimited power and capability. He was faithful in the Old Testament to His promises, Not one of all the LORD's good promises to the house of Israel failed; every one was fulfilled (Joshua 21:45, NIV) and continued to be faithful in the New Testament because, he will remain faithful, for he cannot disown himself (2 Timothy 2:13, NIV). Paul wrote in 1 Thessalonians 5:24, The one who calls you is faithful and he will do it. God can do anything and will stay faithful because of the unlimited power that He has.
The last two transcendent characteristics are God love and grace. In the OT, God is love is focused on His chosen people of Israel. His love is seen as He initiates a relationship with humans. It is shown in His willingness to allow man to have the freedom of choice. The full scope and meaning of God’s love is revealed in the New Testament. His love reaches out to all people, not only to the Israelites. His unselfish love was shown when He sent His one and only Son to die on the cross to redeem the lost. John writes, This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him (I Jn 4:9, NIV). It was His agape love that compelled His act of self-sacrifice.
God’s love for man initiates His grace towards man. He does not deal with people on the basis of their own merit or worthiness or what they deserve, but deals with them according to their deepest need. His grace is exemplified in Romans 5:6, 8:
You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (NIV)
God deals with people on the basis of His goodness and generosity. He supplies us with His undeserved favors, requiring nothing from us in return. And, He is persistent, yet patient, in His love. His desire is for everyone to come to know Him and to experience His love (2 Peter 3:9).
There are some implications for man in understanding God’s transcendence. The most obvious one is that He is a superior being that will never be totally understood. Without a doubt, there will always be a difference between God and man. Because of His superiority, man needs to remember that any revelation of God comes from Him. He is the one who condescends to meet man in a way that man understands. Even our salvation is not our achievement, but God’s initiative. Any shortcomings in our understanding of God’s nature are because of our finite minds and understanding.
Knowing God Through His Attributes
Coming in contact with the transcendent God should produce the same reaction as Isaiah had when He entered God’s throne room and saw God’s majesty, "Woe to me!" I cried. "I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty" (Isaiah 6:5, NIV.) A glimpse of God’s glory produces a reverent fear, a silence, an awe of His presence, and an attitude of worship.
The manner in which we come to a transcendent God is through prayer and worship. God is personal and does reveal Himself to people, but to communicate with a transcendent God, the supernatural is needed. Often it cannot be explained as to how our prayers make a difference, but it is evident that somehow prayer makes a difference. The deeper a person’s prayer life, the more intimate the relationship with God.
His holiness is our standard for our moral character and our motivation for obedience to God. His commands are right, for He is right and therefore obedience to God’s Word will have a positive effect upon the believer. And, He expects us to pursue holiness. Our conduct was of concern in the Old Testament, Speak to the entire assembly of Israel and say to them: “Be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy” (Leviticus 19:2, NIV) and it was equally important in the New Testament, Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect (Matthew 5:48, NIV). This should motivate the believer to be obedient to God’s will.
For a finite being to know a transcendent God is impossible. But, God in His perfect balance has made Himself active and present in our lives so that we can develop a relationship with Him. Though we never completely know and understand Him, we can spend a lifetime growing closer to Him

who is jesus??

Throughout history, the influence Jesus had on the lives of people has never been surpassed. No other great leader has inspired so many positive changes in the lives of his followers. People who encounter the risen Christ are totally transformed. Their outlook on life is altered forever. To uphold their faith, they do not hesitate to face hardship, persecution and even death. Many consecrate their lives to serving others, disregarding their own needs and desires.
First Century Christians
Following Jesus' crucifixion, his disciples were devastated. They had forsaken him in the Garden of Gethsemane to save their own skins. But after they met the resurrected Christ, they were radically changed. Suddenly, they were willing to give their lives to tell Jesus' story to the world. Many were tortured and killed because they proclaimed Jesus was alive.
Skeptics and enemies were also transformed. Jesus' younger brother, James, didn't think Jesus was anybody special. But after his resurrected brother appeared to him, James not only believed Jesus was Lord but became the leader of the Jerusalem church and died a martyr in 62 AD.
Saul of Tarsus was the chief persecutor of early Christians. He dragged people to prison. When they did not recant their faith, he was a party to their execution. But he had a dramatic encounter with the risen Christ on his way to Damascus and he was transformed from Saul, the enemy of Christianity, to Paul, the main propagator of its message. He left his position of prestige in Jewish society, to become a travelling missionary who experienced incredible suffering in order to share the love of Christ throughout the Roman empire.
Roman governor Plinius Secundus wrote in his Epistles X96 that Christians were people who loved the truth at any cost. Although he was ordered to torture and execute them for refusing to curse Jesus, he was continually amazed and impressed with their firm commitments "not to do any wicked deeds, never to commit any fraud, theft, adultery, never to falsify their word, not to deny a trust when they should be called upon to deliver it up." For centuries, true Christians around the world have stood as shining examples of the standards of truth and love established by Jesus of Nazareth.
Historian Philip Schaff described the overwhelming influence which Jesus had on subsequent history and culture of the world. "This Jesus of Nazareth, without money and arms, conquered more millions than Alexander, Caesar, Mohammed, and Napoleon; without science...he shed more light on things human and divine than all philosophers and scholars combined; without the eloquence of schools, he spoke such words of life as were never spoken before or since, and produced effects which lie beyond the reach of orator or poet; without writing a single line, he set more pens in motion, and furnished themes for more sermons, orations, discussions, learned volumes, works of art, and songs of praise than the whole army of great men of ancient and modern times."
Modern Day Christianity
The power of Christ knows no boundary of time or space. In our own age, many skeptics have been convinced just as thoroughly their first-century counterparts. For example, Lew Wallace, a famous general and literary genius, was a known atheist. For two years, Wallace studied in the leading libraries of Europe and America, seeking information that would forever destroy Christianity. While writing the second chapter of a book outlining his arguments, he suddenly found himself on his knees crying out to Jesus, "My Lord and my God."
When confronted by solid indisputable evidence, he could no longer deny that Jesus Christ was the Son of God. Later, Lew Wallace wrote the book Ben Hur, one of the greatest English novels ever written concerning the time of Christ.
Similarly, the late C.S. Lewis, professor at Oxford University in England, was an agnostic who denied the deity of Christ for years. But he, too, in intellectual honesty, submitted to Jesus as his God and Savior after studying the overwhelming evidence for his deity. Over the years, he wrote many books to uphold the ideals of Christianity, including Mere Christianity and The Screwtape Letters.
Many other men and women in our century have dedicated their lives to spreading the Christian message, often braving torture and death. For example, one of Romania's most widely known Christian leader, Richard Wurmbrand, spent 14 years in prison and was repeatedly tortured for running the underground church under Communist rule. Even after international pressure secured his release from Romania, he continued to receive death threats from the Communist regime. But these attempts at intimidation did not silence him. He kept publicly spreading the good news of Christ.
Similarly, in Korea, Joon Gon Kim, a well-known Christian leader, witnessed his wife and father slaughtered before his eyes by Communist sympathizers from his own village. He himself was beaten senseless and left for dead. He survived the beating and asked God to give him love for the souls of his enemies. He eventually led 30 Communists to believe in Christ, including the person responsible for the death of his family members.
Not only does the love of Christ impel Christians to face persecution and death but also to work to make the world a better place. Mother Theresa was an outstanding example of a life poured in the service of Christ. Of her well-known ministry among the poor, she said: "Our work is only the expression of the love we have for God."
Like her, many others have given their lives to serve the destitute and the outcast, either in their homeland or abroad. William and Katherine Booth, founders of the Salvation Army, believed that ministering to the poor was like ministering to Christ himself. The movement they launched enlisted the tireless efforts of enthusiastic people who wanted to make a difference in the world around them.
All of these Christian men and women have found fulfilment and joy in following the teachings of Jesus. They were transformed when they met Christ and yielded their lives to him. Each of them has made a positive impact on the world.
You may also wish to encounter the living God and experience His transforming power. Christ's desire is to enter your heart and give you a new life in him.
