Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast Episode #6 – Yoga is a Washing Machine – Yoga in Nepal with Prakash Acharya

Welcome to Episode #6 of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast! This week, I welcome Prakash Acharya onto the show. He is the founder of Nepal Yoga Home, the school where I completed my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training in Kathmandu Nepal.

Prakash Acharya’s wisdom is effusive. You can feel his wealth of wisdom in his words, his energy, and by the strength of his aura. It comes across in this episode doesn’t it? He has this incredible way of using metaphors to clarify complex subjects. In our conversation today, Prakash talks about yoga as a washing machine for cleansing our bodies, and what it’s like to be a dirty car, or how we’re taught how to drive a car but not how to drive our lives…

Get ready for a rumbling! Your brain is about to soak up some deep, yogic knowledge all while laughing along with Prakash and his fun metaphors.

Tell me more about Prakash…

Prakash Acharya is the founder of Nepal Yoga Home, a renowned Yoga Teacher Training facility in Kathmandu Nepal. With a Masters degree in Yogic Science and  Human Consciousness from Gurukul Kangri University in Haridwar, India, he is currently researching the subject of meditation for his PhD. He is a Grand Master in Reiki Healing and has diplomas is Yoga and Naturopathy, Acupressure and is the Ambassador of Yoga Alliance International for Nepal. Due to his deep and profound knowledge and insight in the field of yoga, Prakash Acharya has been highly acclaimed and appreciated by both his students and by the international circle of yoga.

What to expect in Episode #6 of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast: Yoga in Nepal

Students from over 150+ countries have attended yoga teacher training courses at Nepal Yoga Home and have studied under Prakash Acharya. We kick off the conversation by talking about what it is important to teach yoga students about the true essence of yoga. When students come to Nepal Yoga Home, they learn the true way of yoga. As Prakash says, “They will learn the holistic approach of yoga, and how we can be the master of our own mind, thoughts, and emotions— because we are all suffering from our own emotions and our own thoughts.”

Aren’t we all?

We are all suffering from the vast amount of thoughts running through our minds every minute of the day. Most of these thoughts are useless, and are in fact harmful to our wellbeing. Prakash and I deep dive into how to minimize your thoughts to make your mind clear, and how to tap into your already existent powers of focus! Just like a flickering candle in the wind, your mind is not steady as thoughts blow and flow all around you.

We even go past the body/mind connection… It all starts with the body and mind connection, then you connect your mind to your feelings and emotions, then connect your feelings to your consciousness, then your consciousness to your soul, then your soul to the supreme soul or to God. We don’t just talk about it in theory— Prakash tells us the how, how to form these connections.

I hope you found this conversation to be enlightening, stimulating, and interesting, as Prakash shared his insight and wisdom on the path of yoga, the essence of yoga, the way the mind works and the how element for how to control the mind. He has been integral to my path of yoga, and has directly contributed to me being the yoga teacher I am today.

Favorite Quote from Prakash Acharya

“Most of us are suffering from our own mind. Mind has dual nature. It can give you liberation, also it can take you in big boundaries. It’s like a key. The same key you use to open the door, the same key you use to close the door.”

So you want to listen to a yoga podcast? Here we are!

Thank you for tuning in to the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast, and for being here, dear reader— and listener! Did you just stumble onto this yoga podcast? Were you looking for something else but just found yourself here? If that is the case, I am honored and humbled that you chose to spend your precious time with me! 

I am interviewing yoga teachers from around the world, and seeking to shine a light on the true path of yoga. It can be easy to be swept up into the aesthetics of the yoga asana practice. There are truly incredible bodies out there capable of the most flexible and graceful things! Flexibility isn’t what yoga is about though. It’s not about being able to touch your toes or put your feet behind your head. In listening to this episode, or to any of the Wild Yoga Podcast episodes, it is my sincere hope that you understand more what yoga is and what yoga is all about.

So far, what do you think? What do you feel? What is moving through you?

Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast Episode #6 – Yoga is a Washing Machine – Yoga in Nepal with Prakash Acharya

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:00:05

Welcome, welcome. Welcome to the Wild Yoga Tribe podcast. I’m your host Lily Allen Duenas. Together we’ll talk about the world of yoga and we’ll talk to people from around the world. Join us for authentic conversations about the global yoga ecosystem. And we’ll cover yoga philosophies and methodologies along the way. Inhale, exhale. We’re about to dive in.

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:00:37

Welcome, welcome, welcome, to the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast here on episode six. I welcome my yoga teacher from Nepal Yoga Home in Kathmandu; Prakash Acharya is the founder of Nepal Yoga Home and is a renowned yoga teacher with a Master’s degree in Yogic Science and Human Consciousness, and his current PhD that he’s working on on meditation. He’s also a grand master and Reiki healer and has diplomas in Yoga and Naturopathy, Acupressure and is also the Yoga Alliance International Ambassador for Nepal. He has a deep and profound knowledge and insight into the field of yoga and I am so lucky to have been one of his students in Kathmandu, for my 200-hour yoga teacher training course. It was such an honor to be with them and it’s an honor to have him here on the show today, thank you for being with me today Prakash. 

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:01:35

Hi, Lily, it’s my pleasure to make you part of the Nepal Yoga Home family. We are content to make the whole globe as a family. And Nepal is only a small practice to make that. 

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:01:46

It’s beautiful. I know you do have yoga students come from all around the world to be with you though, right? Almost every country I feel like has to come to your doors.

 

Nepal Yoga Home

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:01:56

Yes, there are more than 150 people from different countries here. Many people from many different corners of the world come here. And different healing like Singing Bowl and Reiki healing courses. And people come from all over the world.

 

What is one of the most important things you have to teach your students that come to you?

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:02:18

What is one of the most important things you have to teach your students that come to you?

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:02:25

Okay. Especially, what I see is that people need to understand the essence of yoga, because nowadays yoga is going apart from the essence; apart from the origin, you know. That’s why I like to give the real information of the yoga which is, what is yoga and what is not yoga, it needs to be clear. And if the yoga is not fit for them, they can go into the gym , they can do other exercises and they can go in for the other ethics. If they are really seeking the truth… If they are really seeking bliss-peace, they can go into yoga.

What is at the essence of yoga?

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:03:08

How is yoga different from the gym or from something that you know, you said we are going far away from the essence, so what is at the essence? Let’s define that. 

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:03:21

Okay, very good question. The essence of yoga is to find yourself, to find the truth, to find the bliss, to find your real existence, which is the Jnana. And which are free from all the principles; from all the boundaries. Part of yoga is meditation, but we are missing that part. And just for the name of yoga, we are doing different exercises. 

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:03:45

Meditation is why we do Asana, right?

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:03:49

Yes. 

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:03:50

So… come and when you come to you, and Kathmandu from all over the world, do you think that they are really surprised? Like what yoga really is? Do you feel that most of them kind of have that shock of “Wow, that’s yoga”? Do you think they feel that way? 

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:04:08

Yes, when I welcome them and I’ll make them theory about the world, meaning and history and all the process of the yoga, they are really surprised because on their mind, they have different mind setting about the yoga, and when they come to hear and learn the different way of yoga, and they will find the holistic influence of yoga, how it can be mastered our own mind, on our own emotions. Because we are all suffering from our own emotions, our own thoughts, so they’ll be more happy after coming here. 

 

A vogi is the opposite of a yogi

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:04:45

Well, Prakash, there’s so much that you’ve taught me that I still think about day to day . They pop in these thoughts; you’ve so many wise words. I love that when you taught me that a yogi is someone who thinks, only when they want to think, you know that they choose. They choose when they want to think or when they don’t. But a vogi, the opposite of a yogi, is someone who thinks all the time with chaos in the mind with no control. I thought that was such a powerful, powerful lesson. Do you want to talk about it a little bit more for our listeners? 

 

The dual nature of the mind

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:05:21

Definitely. Most of us are suffering from our own mind. Mine has dual nature. It can give you a liberation, also taking the big boundaries. It’s like a key you use to open the door and gently you use to close the door. If your mind [unintelligible 00:05:46], and you go more and more about a liberation’s. You can feel more freedom within. You are going to lose coping from your own mind. Mind is giving your big service in your life. On the other hand, when your mind will hold up your hand, and it makes your big soften to you. If you see, the normal people they are almost 50,000 thoughts in a day and one of them, 95% thoughts are useless. You see, how unnecessary thoughts will do in a day. All these thoughts is dragging our energy. If you really want to preserve this energy first of all, we have to minimize our thoughts. And if we minimize our thoughts, then our mind will become more clear and clean. There is this flow of the wind. The candle can read very well without flickering. There’s many choices of our ego, anger, fear, attachment, angries, and much more that is picking our minds, worrying our minds. When you instill your minds, watch who are going around you; when you instill your minds… [unintelligible 00:07:20] free for minds, then you go on the next level. So the important thing is we have to connect body to mind, then we have to connect our mind to feelings or emotions, then feelings to our consciousness, consciousness to soul, towards the Supreme Soul, with God. In the very beginning we have learned art on how we connect our body and minds. There is a very big art to connect. If you don’t know how to connect the body and mind, we don’t do yoga, just we are doing some exercises. Your job is not to intervene from your body in mind. So I think it is a very important tool to connect your body and mind; being conscious, being aware, and doing the learning process that I talked about in my classes; that I’m talking about in my classes. So in this output I would like to say, yoga is the wind to connect the low soul to the supreme soul. To connect to the low soul, first of all we have to connect our body to mind, then mind should connect to our feelings, feelings will connect to our consciousness, consciousness to connect to the soul, soul to connect to the Supreme Soul. Then, we forget- [inaudible 00:08:49]

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:08:51

All of that connection. It sounds like a step by step by step up of a ladder does it follow that A put to B to C does it follow that path? or is it more messy, would you describe it?

 

Always start from the beginning

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:09:05

Actually, always learn from the beginning. The beginning is how we get to our body and mind. Every teacher, every school says that; “oh we have to indicate”, but they don’t answer how. The answer to “how” is very important, many teachers say that it is the ability to get the body in mind, but they don’t use the tools. They know why, but they don’t know how. It’s very important to know how we should connect with oneself, how we can connect body and mind. So that is a very important part of yoga practice. 

 

How would you describe the “How” of yoga?

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:09:44

So naturally, if that’s the most important part, I’m sure my listeners would want to know how, and what is the answer. I know of course that’s better taught in person, in a class and there’s so many elements to it but how would you describe the “How”?

 

There’s no way to connect the body and mind except awareness

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:10:00

There’s no way to connect the body and mind except awareness. We can connect our body and mind in any moment, if we are very aware, if we are very conscious. Sample you are taking an interview with me, if you’re very conscious of doing this activity and your body and mind becomes one. So if you’re fully not aware, if you’re not conscious, your mind is flipping somewhere else and traveling somewhere else and making a suffering within you. That is why when you are cleaning and if your mind is [unintelligible 00:10:30] you feel so aware to make it plain, then your body and mind is technically. In Yogi practice, what it teaches, connects a lot. Being aware of the breath. Why do we become very aware of the breath? Then we are free from the past and future, because that is a reflection of the present moment. The very pause, we practice the awareness in the breath and second things we did the practice of the movement. Nowadays there are many walking medicines. And when you are aware of the walking through movement, you become integrated with your body. Because the body in mind is starting to get. Like it’s [unintelligible 00:11:12] with Chakra. If you are very aware of the zero point of our energy centers, our body and mind start to integrate and like this way we could be aware of the instantiation of the body. We could be aware of the surroundings, we could be aware of the unit, we could be aware of the “what is happening in our life?”. Neither past nor future. Just hearing now “what is happening?” If you’re very aware, they alot, then your body and mind start to connect.

 

The body and mind connection

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:11:43

Yeah, the body and mind does connect when you just completely have that focus. I think what people forget, they think, “Oh, that’s so hard, that sounds impossible”, but they focus like that. Maybe every day when they’re watching a really interesting movie. They’re completely focused on exactly what’s going on on the screen. It’s just taking that away from an activity like a passive entertainment, and focusing on eating an orange, walking, standing in Tadasana feels just one yoga pose. I think when they remember, “oh, I don’t need to learn how to focus, I just need to tap into it” I think that’s key too. 

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:12:27

It is a great art of life. For simply to drive a motorcycle, we learn to drive our car, we learn you know, and we don’t know how to live our life, how to drive our life. So Yoga is learning how to drive our life. If we have a real practice of the awareness, in a few days, you did the practice and after that it becomes very spontaneous. Like in the beginning, and when the baby goes, they need to practice walking, even if they can not stand up because they don’t know [unintelligible 00:13:02] It is so simple for you to walk. But you can ask the many why nobody’s telling you to stand. You’re trying to balance between the two legs, how challenging it is to balance between two legs. When they get it, then it becomes so easy. That way awareness in the beginning is equally challenging, but when you are used to it, when you have good practice, then it becomes so easy because it becomes spontaneous, it becomes natural.

 

That they talk to you about “oh, I felt so connected and now I feel less, what do I do?” Do you notice that?

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:13:33

I think spontaneous and natural is something that happens almost without you realizing it at first and then it happens more regularly. But I also think there’s times like the ebb and the flow of an ocean, when we’re still on the path, we have to remember there’s times where we won’t be as connected. And we have to forgive ourselves and have compassion for that as well, and continue to thrive because I think there are so many moments where we just lose. We lose something, it’s like we lose our faith that we can actually do this because we slide back. Do you find that that happens a lot in your students, Prakash? That they talk to you about “Oh, I felt so connected and now I feel less, what do I do?” Do you notice that?

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:14:22

 Uh-hmm (affirmative). Actually in every human being, there are three gunas.. According to the yoga that is Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. Sattva is a very positive energy, and Tamas is the negative energy, and Rajas is in between. When we have a lot of tamas guna, and we cannot connect with ourselves. When we have a lot of impurities, we have anger, fear, pride,, anger, anxiety, distress, jealousy, anger, and much more. And when you slowly clear it, then it will be easier to connect. For Example, if you have to go somewhere else, if you have to travel somewhere else, first of all what you have to do, you have to prepare. You have to prepare well; you have to have a good mentality. Right away, you have to be well-prepared if your goal is freedom or not. Because people want to earn money and they are seeking in the yoga. If you’re really seeking the peace you’ll find in yoga, there is no way, literally the best place to find. Sample if you are seeking fame, popularity, money or something else, yoga is not the place. But yoga gives you the way, yoga gives you a heart and you have no enemy and no friends. You are equal for all living beings. And here’s to where. 

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:16:06

Yeah, I love that, Prakash. As you said, when we go on a trip, we have to prepare for the trip. We have to buy the tickets, do the research, plan our transportation, and pack a suitcase. There’s so much that goes into that and people would not argue with you, of course. But when we say you have to prepare yourself for every single day. You know, to be a good person, to be more in control of your thoughts, and to be more at peace and mindful. They forget that there’s some preparation needed, you know. There you need to set a cincopa, you need to do meditation, pranayama, Om chanting, like whatever part of this yoga tradition that calls to you and helps you the most. That’s an act of preparation every day. 

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:16:53

Yes, because if you don’t clean your car for a few days, what happens? A lot of dust. That is why the human body and our feelings, our mind, if you don’t clean everyday it will be a lot of dust. So we have to clean it. If you don’t clean it, then [unintelligible 00:17:10] Yoga is a good washing machine. 

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:17:17

That’s so true. And it’s not just the washing of our muscles, bones, ligaments, or fascia. It’s not just the actual body cleansing and purification, it’s also the prana and the chakras and like helping ever get more in alignment. 

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:17:33

Your mind, your intellect, your samskara. You know, everything.

 

How did you get yourself on the path of yoga?

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:17:39

Would like to tell Prakash, our listeners a little bit about how you got yourself on the path of yoga?

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:17:47

Actually, I’m never thinking about the yoga masters. I think about how I can connect with myself. My goal was to find myself. My middle way is soulful medicine. Soulful medicine is an amazing way. I learned more than one and one technique of medicines. And finally I discovered a soulful medicine. And after the soulful medicine, it brought me a lot of changes in my life. I think this is the best way to practice and fit that kind of magnetism soulful yoga, in Nepal yoga Yoga Home. And in the very beginning I went into yoga to achieve some things. It was my joy. It was my pleasure. It was like a plane and I didn’t have to do yoga. So for me, Yoga is like a part of my friends. If you’re asking why I enjoy yoga, in the beginning. In the beginning, I have learned that I’ve been to many places with so many doctors, many [unintelligible 00:18:54], no doctors can cure me. And finally I’ve been to yoga class and it was very amazing and then I was really surprised at the benefits of yoga. And then after that, I thought why not to try more. And then I tried deeper into different postures. And then also in my life, there are a lot of mementos, energy, and challenges.  I lost my father, [unintelligible 00:19:23] when father died and you had to bury by yourself, by your own hand. It was a big challenge for me. With my father I have a big attachment. I become some kind of depressed person which really helps me to seek my true self. And then my concept of yoga changed. On a topic to get thoughts into this. And then I’ve been to many many Yogi’s. many sales. and many temples, and many monasteries, and many more places instill healing satisfaction. Then I went to university and then I did a master’s degree in Yogic science. It made me more positive because they taught more about the muscles, brains, and nodes, in the name of yoga. 

 

And still I continue my study and I’ve been to many, many journals now, many Yogi’s and many sales and read many many books and reading and sorting all these things is becoming more positive that the big processes give me big lessons. That’s why in yoga, which is the plasticity of yours, you are enlightened. If you are not persistent, you are not ready to seek your truth. And finally, the main reasons [unintelligible 00:20:50] and on the river of the Ganga River, only I discover soulful medicine. After getting that, I thought, I feel that “Oh, I got it.”

 

What makes yoga in Nepal different? 

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:21:05

Prakash, what makes yoga in Nepal different? Or what makes yoga in Nepal very special?

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:21:12

The first thing is, Nepal is more the land of yoga, because most of the concept of yoga is discovered [unintelligible 00:21:21] of Nepal. And this is the place of the Siva, where Siva is born. And with the invention of hot yoga, country yoga. And on the other hand in Nepal, good they are born. And we’ll go out and go to Nepal. And he gives very authentic techniques of deliberations, and many more sales and they did the practice in Nepal. So in the context of Nepal, yoga is our culture, right? You do, you serve it, this must be in your country. In Nepal, people pick yoga as part of their lifestyles, part of the culture. Nepal is a very authentic place to learn authentic yoga.

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:22:12

And something about Nepal Yoga Home, the way you’ve built it, it’s just so gorgeous. Yoga shala and facility, it faces the Himalayas, it is surrounded by the jungle. There’s so much clean and pure air, you know. Air and energy there, I think Nepal is a very special place to do yoga, not just because of the history, but because of the energy that’s still there today.

 

Prakash Acharya: 00:22:33

Actually, we are refining energy because we were founded by Nagarjuna, and Nagarjuna is the co-disciple of the Buddha. And Buddhism is the [unintelligible 00:22:44] So the energy of the Dharma is so fine and so amazing and so glorious. And so we are dealing with that energy. That’s why Yoga Home met more [unintelligible 00:22:58] for all yoga seekers, from all over the world. 

 

How can listeners get in touch with you?

 

Lily Allen-Duenas: 00:23:02

Yes, that’s so true. If somebody wants to come take a yoga teacher training with you or come, do a course. Do you want to talk a little bit about the courses that you do on offer and how they can get in touch with you? Like the web site name and on social media.

I wanted to ask, you mentioned you’re thinking about doing trekking and yoga retreats too, and you also offer you know meditation retreats and Reiki teacher training.

Also, we do the yoga ayurveda course. The very interesting thing is we do different healing courses like; soul healing course, Reiki healing course, and we do the certificates.

Be well dear one, be well.
