Hatha...or a cosmology of horror

What is given to man for a gift must also have an origin from which it came. The essence of things is discrete. There everything of it is already fulfilled. What, then, should one consider other than one's own gratitude for the good that comes from it?

Life is lived forward. It is understood already in time. One can take only one direction of view alone. No one has ever been able to do more than to commit himself. There will be something true, as it happened. That's how it happened with us.

We want to be upright people. We have not looked at everything. We have not clarified everything that has been. That is how our things have become what they are today. But that is also how they have turned out well. Something of it has a sufficient continuance with us.

Intro

Address

Reality is design. One reality could not be left out.

The author and artist Mathias Schneider would like to welcome you to the website with his own collection of texts on the field of yoga. This writing has been created over the course of many years. He created it to evaluate his own experiences in dealing with his passion for yoga and its related disciplines. In addition to the texts, you can see here some pictures that have been produced by him in Schneider's workshop. He hopes you will enjoy lingering here for a while and tasting these things for what they are.

Affirmation

Keep an order

Special paths have often also been wrong paths.

Follow the own spirit with your being. Your thought be with him. What you have thought, bring you in connection with him. It represents the essence of your life, who you are and what you want to be. Therefore, remain who you are. Be what you have been. This has already been enough for something good in you. Maintain this connection or re-establish it as it should be.

Then we created an introspective that meant something to us. We have used it to make sure that we know how to implement what we have become aware of in our lives in this existence.

Those examples in this collection of writings have something of their own that we liked. There we would like to remember what we have done because this work has been sufficient for something right. The observance of an order in this has led us to use our own arguments where they have fitted well.

Everything affects our being because of its belonging to our person. Therefore we have assumed an interlocking of what will be our own. We have looked for a center in us and assumed that it has rightly existed at every stage of its appearance.

Documentation

An unencumbered void

What has led to a progress of the things with us, we have preserved to a large extent. Something of substance has arisen there for us, which we know to pay attention to. We consider them to be benign by their nature.

We liked to set up a stringency of our thoughts, where we were able to do that well. Something has become clear to us. Some congruence of our being to other realities of our existence has struck us. There we stopped and looked what we have already understood of it. We made sure that things would not slip away from us.

Our behavior should lead to a balance of us. With their help we receive what we have to own. A corresponding stand we keep, how it fitted to it. With it the whole should be possible for us more easily.

Thought

Unit

No one has ever transformed something impossible in such a way that it has lasted for a long time.

An art form which has found its nucleus in the particular and unique may be safely neglected. It has no trivial theme for itself. A culture that has revolted has lost itself in trivialities. The orders assert themselves sooner or later and determine the events with us. Something like this can be seen, but one has also been able to prove it historically.

There we have recognized the events. The things known to us are opposed to each other and yet should be united with each other. For this they are to be brought into balance. We have done what we could to get the valences needed for it. We have arranged them proportionally to each other.

Immediately we became aware of something that meant everything to us. The things have always stood in a relation to the absolute and have been true. Then they should also be good. We have realized that. Thereupon has served us to an understanding of what we have looked and weighted.

Speech design

Freilassing

People bequeath their habits to each other.

First, we take the posture by recognizing its ideal. To do this, we uphold it as it is for us. Then we detach ourselves from this form and are as we have already known ourselves. In the aftermath, we have come to know something. This has been in addition to our habits.

If this thing has also confronted us with the state of us by showing it to us, then we have become aware by it only something of us what has been true. There our perception was sufficient to understand this statement.

We have accepted and acknowledged them. As a result, something has come true for us. With what is ours, we deal with it. With what is ours, we build ourselves up again and thus try to do well in this life.

It doesn't matter what big stones have lain on our path and are blocking it. Who has arrived on the inner path, also knows the inner obstacles.

There it should be his equipment that he handles these things well and works in a meaningful way for his happiness. Inhibitions have been with us in abundance. Sometimes they have warned of danger. Fears are infinite among us human beings. Once we recognize our own of them, we can finally distinguish them from other people's fears and find a demarcation of what makes us.

Everyone has something to own. At best, this is to make us human. What no one has needed has sometimes already shown us what our contribution to the whole should consist of. Because everyone alone has looked only for himself and because everyone alone has looked for his confirmation, everything behaves in such a way with us. With good reason we leave it as it is and get along.

For the time being, we should no longer doubt. The nature of the world and the nature of a person go hand in hand. Let's just connect our power to us. Let us reflect their opponents. Every human being is valuable enough to be allowed to do such a thing.

Welcome, Welcome, Bienvenue

Letter

Dear Sir or Madam,

here in this book, which is now in the format of a freely designed wiki, Mathias Schneider, *1975, from Offenburg in the Ortenau, a district in southwest Germany, which is close to the French metropolis of Strasbourg, would like to tell you something of the way in which he has so far dealt with the rather extensive field of knowledge of yoga. Those, usually applied by him approaches he would like to document for their reading and thus show you how he has perceived these things. Partly he has thereby the thought system, which was determining for him in his youth time, when he stood at the beginning with this thing, also nowadays still recognized. Something of it has been still good to use.

However, Schneider will unfortunately not show or explain any physical exercises to you here. That should be also not at all his task with the production of this work report. He has not been trained by someone suitable, who has conveyed something special of it, which will be already worth that one speaks of it more than has been necessary. Others have already done such a thing sufficiently. The author has certainly not been able to do it better than these.

The little wiki here has become a very personal one in parts. Therefore, it will hardly have the same value for every reader. However, if you feel comfortable reading and lingering on the page with the wiki, you should calmly deal with its contents a little bit. Who would like to occupy himself for this with the way of an expression of the thought processes of the author, it should be permitted to him to do something like that. Perhaps he will know to contrast his own thoughts with that what has been written down here. Such a comparison is supposed to be good in order to weigh something expressed with words in detail with oneself. A certain examination of the work and the word of another person will probably release something very useful and fruitful for the own understanding of such things, as they have already appeared and been addressed here on this page to the yoga.

Mathias Schneider has worked out these things and then prepared them linguistically in detail in order to clarify that inner picturing of the imaginary world with himself. That courage to do such a thing he has simply acquired in the course of time. He believed in the right of man, which allows him to obtain a participation of himself with his own goods. To form them and to make something possible for himself by it is supposed to result from an impulse of man, which has given him many an opportunity to recognize what is true and right, as it should have validity before us. With imagination he has gone to work there and has received the results of his language creation. Thus, something almost independent in materials has arisen with him. His thing has gained in importance by the fact that he has made it true.

The wiki 'Hatha' is still being edited by the author. What was the author thinking about when he wrote it? - He thought that every person has to find and give the answers to the questions of his life himself. We will hardly be able to influence which questions these are. But it should lead us soon back on the right way, that we deal with the valid questions of the present and have learned something for our life from the corresponding lessons. Our own lot should once be sufficiently understandable to us, in order to possess a basis for the necessary decision-making.

If these questions come from us and the answers to them have neither been scientifically founded nor religiously secured, as well as have by no means corresponded to the locally usual custom, one can confidently speak of a statement from the area of esotericism. Schneider considers his written discussion of yoga as such an esoteric text.

Just for something not yet properly understood, one has urgently needed own approaches, which have done justice to the person with his ordinary talent and simple equipment of the mind. Such approaches should have relevance for the advancement of a man in his actual life situation. This fact is equally valid for the author. The possibility to consider an improvement of the occurrences of one's existence and to consider how to find and commit such a way has been one of the main reasons for the creation of the writing here. From the beginning it should be clear to the readership that Mathias Schneider was concerned with an acceptance of the given, as it has arisen with him. Such a behavior has conditioned his existence. But it has also made possible for him an acceptance of what has come into his mind. It was his own idea, thanks to which he understood who he is, what he has and what he does. He has formed his thoughts about it and has preserved them among other things with this writing.

Thus, the author has found an opportunity to write texts about yoga on his own example. It must be something simple that he has presented, because a reception of it should succeed spontaneously to the respective readership. Schneider is clear about that. Out of his own strength he has created such things for himself here, as he finds them realizable. Quite rightly, some of it will seem unfamiliar to you. Some of it will seem quite unconventional at first glance. Continuously his life and his existence have also led to such approaches and ways of looking at things, which are unusual and peculiar.

These are supposed to be basically viable paths for him, which is a result of his effort. However, he has had to leave them temporarily in order to get along well with his life again. There he has tried to exist with his things for quite some time, as he has briefly touched upon here, but not all of it has been carried through in everyday life. Some things just occur alternately and renew themselves only after having let them rest for a while.

Here on this wiki, which has been formed by him over many years as a basic framework of his world of thoughts and ideas, it shall now be about the self-experience of the author, as he has surveyed it. The key to his creative work shall indeed be an aesthetic of his own, contained in his things. He orients himself thereby to the younger years of his life, but also his youth time found to their attention with him.

There are also some hints to be found here about those things that go along with meditation and the practice of devotion. What he has described of it has already exercised a certain influence on his way of life and has thus already given him some support.

Especially that state of contemplation has been profitable for him as a Christian. Schneider likes to compare the term with the Indian word samadhi. Both situations have been about an internalization of perception in connection with the experience of a deep peace. To proceed from this and to maintain peace in the real situation of everyday life is said to be able to lend a certain beauty to our existence.

With this, he now concludes this introductory letter and hopes you enjoy reading this collection of texts on yoga & co. So remains

With kind regards

the author Mathias Schneider

The instrument maker

Formally speaking, it was our attitude that we expressed. Then we found something that corresponded to it. We made that true. That is how those examples came into being that stood for us.

Some quirks have those works which I have created. These unintentional additions mark the value of what my works mean. They do not breathe additional life into the created, but they have been of relevance for the whole what I have released.

As an artist, I have tried to realize myself. However, in the meantime, I have become an instrument maker. My workpieces have testified to this. They have been all drafts, what I have created. For the creation of a proper painting I still lack the necessary knowledge.

Those plants and machines, with which I have been equally intensively involved throughout my life, have made it necessary for me to commit myself to determining how they are to be generated. This is what I am preparing for.

The fact that the associated realization is still young for me has pleased me well. For years already I hold on to the present and make out what is mine. What I have found for myself through this, I would like to acknowledge. It was the most recent thoughts that I put into practice in the work. This has pacified me, but it has also led me back to my forces. They occurred to me spontaneously and vitalized me. I have welcomed that.

Idea

A conception of time

When dealing with time, the timing, you recognize the quality of a player.

In the German language, we call everything that has lasted something, time. This has to own most different characteristics and references. I got to know a special reference to the area of the time with the game of chess. There one speaks of tempi.

Each move represents such a tempo. Before you have taken away your opponent's first pieces, you create advantages for yourself by winning tempi. To do this, you bring the unity of your pieces into line with each other in such a way that they have assisted each other over a short distance. In the skirmish you get advantages because you have improved your position.

It is important for a chess player to have thought about a positional picture at the right time. Every such positional picture creates space for a consideration of what is given at the moment. The chess player puts his thoughts in order. He grasps the situation. In case of doubt, he improves the interaction of his pieces. Thanks to this strategy, the chess player has certain moves in mind, which he will favor as soon as his opponent has made the corresponding counter-move. Then his game appears fluid. The moves he makes result in a coherence. You can see the idea behind it.

It is true that the theoretical number of moves in a game is unlimited. However, an advantage results which leads to victory, or drawn positions arise, the results draw and stalemate then come into effect sooner or later and end the game prematurely.

The permanent pursuit of an advantage presupposes that one has evaluated a situation and improves it in the following moves. Tactical mistakes on the other side put the chess player directly in a better position. Strategic mistakes on the other side also have a negative effect, but as a rule they are not immediately decisive for the game. Sometimes one accepts a strategic disadvantage for a tactical advantage.

Thus, in chess, a distinction is made between whether a move has improved the situation on the board in the long term or in the short term. In this area of consideration, it is necessary to take into account what significance a friction will have for the development of the game. The capture of the pieces wears down the opponent and sets new conditions in force. A superior power ceases to be one as soon as it has been weakened. This can happen locally and does not always have to affect the entire number of figures. The interaction of the pieces is decisive for the advantage and disadvantage in an exchange and for the beating of the pieces.

With each move, the state of both parties on the field changes. Forces are shattered, forces contract.

The number of moves is the measure of the length of a game of chess.

Impulse

A phenomenon and its abstraction

Everything that has already appeared in the world has a certain form of its own. It can be evaluated. Such a form the things have always produced partially. These have been events when they have done such a thing.

Classification of events has led man to attribute to things certain phenomena for which there are individual terms.

A few of these will now be named.

The weight as the internal size of the materials

The speed as a peculiarity of all processes

The moment as the epitome of energy

Heat as an expression of the closeness between the moving substances

For such terms there are now also orders of magnitude derived from them. Also they are to be named.

The weighting - This hides the conservation laws with their equations.

The tempo - This hides your own frequencies with their intervals.

The force - This is where the transmissions with their progressions are hidden.

The temperature - It is the result of friction and the resulting friction of the types of energy.

Thought

A unit and its balance

The sum of the whole is zero (0). True to this thought a preservation of what we have considered as the whole results from itself. Nobody has yet brought into the world what has already been predisposed there.

That is where all things have appeared. They exist as what they are.

Some of it seems to be simple. Yet something that is constant because of its peculiarity has always been the way it is.

There we observe nature and consider its appearance. We assume a certain consistency to it. We assert this consistency by acknowledging it unreservedly. This has included that we have regarded it as a continuous order of magnitude.

The essence of a world that appears consistent in a continuous way is based on the transcendence of its main features. We presuppose the knowledge of this peculiarity of nature.

The main features in their appearance as entities of this world have not taken part in the happening, but have made such a happening possible by their appearance. Thereby the appearing nature is one which has stamped itself in itself.

This should mean that the transcendences of the entities underlying all given peculiarities of nature are absolute. This has been in contrast to the entity itself. Only the transcendence is to be understood absolutely. It has stood for an absence of the higher.

True to the natural appearance of a matter, an absence in the clear case of an effect of it means a drive in the way of a vacuum. With this we have found a motor of the whole, which precedes everything.

Thus, we explain the willpower of a human being as one by means of which he has submitted to what has happened. It is by no means freely determinable and should also not be assumed so because that would be foolish. What on the other hand has been freely determinable is the own resistance against something that has emanated. We use this as throttle respectively as brake with us. With it we prevent the excessive sauntering and skidding which our form of the movement sometimes contains.

Documentation

Integrity

The first thing to do is to understand man in his unity. After that, one makes a picture of his personality.

Man, recognize your conditionality. Imagine what is truly given for you. Do not deceive yourself about the guidelines of your existence. Acknowledge the frame of what makes you.

The image we have of this world reflects us and our interests. The image we have of our fellow human beings expresses how we are doing with our lives and what we have found good about them.

Those judgments that we have already made result from our dealings with things. They have a significant effect on our being and are therefore important for our destiny.

Those who have thought that being human has been a grace should also be strict with themselves, because otherwise everything about us gets out of control and goes bad.

Impulse

The meaning behind

Mastery of materials is a prerequisite for the proper development of creative power as a person.

Everything has its mode of appearance. A person's word adds to and complements the best. This is how a person gets his weight with other people.

Some people seek to get confirmation. That should be right. But what has already happened could not be repeated. Therefore, no one needs to confirm to another what he has already known about himself anyway. It is rather a confirmation of what we have known about him and how we present him to other people in our speech. This has an effect. This shows who of the people has been truthful.

Truthfulness has now been addressed with this. It represents a passable motive for us. The ulterior motive of it is supposed to be trust in life and the world as it is. This is all given. With honesty we appear and are ready to create something. Piece by piece our works complement each other and result in something whole for the present. With it we have reflected on our own good.

A collection of what means something to us, we have brought to ways and thus learned to focus on the essential. For this we are given something, so we bring this. With prudence, calmness and patience we accomplish our own tasks. Our speed is by no means apparent to us, because it is an internalized order of magnitude with us. It does not matter how we appear to others. We are neutral about it and yet we have done something true. Our independence and their independence has been in a way the same for us.

Whatever we did, we stood by it and got something in the process.

Documentation

Worldview and consciousness

As human beings we are involved in processes. State by state, we work through something that has existed and that has made something of us.

The complete whole represents the basis of our observations to the existence of a man. For this it shall be valid that the sum of its content is constant. What has not been constant has represented alone only a part of it. This can be proved. What has been in exchange with other realities has not included them. The decrease or the increase of a thing should therefore be an indication that something has been incomplete. That implies a presence of other areas.

If we look at the existence of a human being, we notice the loss of the good about it. For this reason we recognize that also here an exchange takes place. It is the good that is exploited in us. We are really exploiting it.

It was true for the truth that one could not increase it. One will only be able to consolidate a knowledge about it. That should be the task of believing people. Without having a certain framework for it, which has said, what is given, no such knowledge can be attained.

Thought

The thing with the properties

Whatever we have for ourselves, we set it up. To do this, we assemble the objects and put them in position. But what we have not been able to do is to give the things properties that we have had.

A rearrangement of the objects takes place in a simple way. Thereby we become aware of what moves the things. But everything has a certain impulse, which it realizes by itself.

We can be satisfied with that. At times we liked it. However, sometimes the items have appeared differently than we intended for them. A control of this already exists. It has affected our action. But the truth rests in the things and balances everything.

Probably this has been the reason why everything seems so different from what we once intended it to be.

There we have manufactured and established, planted and stretched, only to find afterwards that our power is unique. It is consistently limited to the moment and is lost again directly afterwards.

Whatever we did on our own, it burned up immediately afterwards. Every action of us is stabilized by a reaction. Everything is in balance or the principle of it intervenes in the happening and restores it.

There all objects receive such properties, which resulted from the peculiarities, which make them.

Our assumption that something dormant is inherent in living things should not be misjudged. We hold out for a stabilization of the human being. We recognize in the withdrawal of our activity the reason for the order as we have found it.

A world without measure and goal

In the world, we humans live and yet have not been of its kind. We have rather bowed to its conditions, but have raised ourselves above them as soon as possible. Of all things, the nature of man has led to the fact that this world exists as one in which everything created corresponds to a human standardization. In this the human being has remained unique so far. No other being has done such a thing in such a comprehensive way. Thus we have transformed the paradise into a space, the existence of us into a compulsion to form. Everything for us is about how we looked better in front of other people. People talk about eternal youth and do everything to realize it. Meanwhile, the basis for it is rotten. Extinction of the species, devaluation of flora and fauna are the biggest obstacles to lead a happy existence as a human being.

Everything what is contained in the world will succeed to the human being sooner or later to take. It has not been the question whether it will come in such a way, but has been decisive thereby only, from when it will be so far. We are playing with smart devices and are basically already capable of the unusual. Thanks to a haptic regeneration, man has opened up the space for himself to make more of what is predisposed in him. There he does well to deal with materials which have already opened the access to the structure for him once. Their content, the information, is animated by the spirit and can be found in the material. There is life in it, a comedian would say.

Meanwhile, it has brought a time and with it something causal, the rust over things. In any form this sour grub has appeared. Who has devoted himself to it, has received all fullness of it, but has also sold and betrayed everything for it, what was once his own.

Thus, both powers have acted in opposition to each other. The one has made true what has been, the other has moved something and ensured its downfall. In contrast, the people have sought a solution to their problem, which they call life, with measure and aim. With their orientation to the reasonable they have given all splendor to their crown, but have done nothing to preserve a basis of it. There the gardens have rotted, a library has collapsed. What do you get out of it if it stays that way? What does something matter to us and why have we not worked for something appropriate to happen?

Idea

One force, four strands

Normal forces, i.e. pulling forces, can be focused by us. They imply an elasticity of us per se, since they can spring back as soon as they are released.

True to my inherent need for rest, I have assumed for my own power that it can be divided into four strands. In order to be able to represent these four parts of my force, I picture them in front of me with the help of strings or ropes. Since I assumed anyway that main forces correspond to a normal force, this was nothing wrong. Their peculiarity that they occurred pulling can be reproduced with it.

Furthermore, I make a connection between them by means of snap hooks. In this way, I can use a plastic example to illustrate one or the other principle of how forces are transmitted.

Documentation

A language and its idioms

All people speak one language. This has not made us different from each other.

Local customs have an impact on the language patterns in our country. I see the development of a language as a fractal process. Since it served the mediation, all expressions of it are conditioned to be fair to a mediation. They come into being because of the civilizational advantage they confer. To these advantages one must count also a diversity of the individual languages. A demarcation of individual subgroups can thus take place on the basis of the applied code.

Language is characterized by idioms. These are descriptive images. They can be transported and evoke something in our own imagination. A finding of idioms is equivalent to an unfolding of skills. Their optional nature is given. Only the one who has acquired them has them as his own. (Intrinsic capacity of a human being) It should be true that they can be conveyed furthermore. Thus it shall be given that skills are transferable per se.

It should not matter who has released a realization. Always the recognized has released something with us what has done justice to it. The people of the inventors and discoverers have done nothing else than to break down and to multiply the known to open new ways. Faithful to an analytical principle, one can bring every order of magnitude into a context valid for it. The tools for this are known from physics. Meanwhile, a dimensional analysis makes it verifiable whether one's own assumptions are plausible.

Sets of data are analyzed by clustering them. In this way, data of the same kind is recognized and thus can be extracted from the whole as a proportion of it. This process ensures that an infinite abundance becomes assessable with us.

To make our case right, we basically start from the worst case imaginable. We look for approaches and ways to clarify this case. Thereby we transform a material. This mental substance has alone only one state to own, which has been moreover not arbitrary. Therefore it is logical that we can set a state of it. We have done that when creating the work.

A mediation of states is supposed to be now the practiced what has come about through the languages of mankind. Everything has besides a certain valence to own. Thereby something can be relativized. We bring the given according to its weighting in relation to the larger whole of its order.

Cluster for cluster the things are contained to each other. If this formation of knowledge will be of finite kind, then it has found to its complete form sometime. Thereupon the truth of the given things results by itself.
