Link at 10 has the actual story. The yoga mat was swept out to sea along with the poor sod who tried to rescue her.
Her body was found 3-4km away. Local authorities warned tourists to stay back from rough waters during heavy rains.
Link repeats in video.
I will take your word for it...too many books, too little time...thx
It means yoked...
Just as Communion means yoked to Jesus.
It’s the same process.
Don’t judge that which you don’t understand.
Here’s a question for you. When Jesus washed the disciples feet, He said:
John 13
7 Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”
8 “No,” said Peter, “you shall never wash my feet.”
Jesus answered, “Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.”
Peter argued with Jesus and said Jesus was not to wash his feet. Peter did not understand.
Why did Jesus say that? Do you understand?
There is much more to the process of Communion with Jesus than most understand. Yoga is an important part of that process no matter what name you call it.
There was a great sage in India who lived in the mid 1800’s. His name was Swami Ramakrishna. He first became enlightened in the Hindu tradition. Then he abandoned that and studied and practiced Islam. Again he became enlightened.
He then gave up Islam and became a Christian, reading the Bible, being Baptized, and receiving Communion. He then became enlightened in the Christian tradition.
Enlightened or awakening is the process by which a person knows and experiences Jesus.
Jesus told the disciples in Matthew 13 that satan planted the weeds or tares on earth while the people were asleep. They are still asleep.
The process the human soul goes through to experience this awakening or enlightenment is the same for all souls, no matter their religion.
I’m a Christian and Jesus is my Savior as He was born in the flesh to rescue mankind. Just as the physical body is the same, no matter a person’s religion, the same is true for the soul.
Jesus referred to Himself as the Alpha and Omega. He existed before the creation of mankind on earth. He states this many times. Many believe that He manifested in the flesh many times, to different cultures. You cannot get to Our Father except through Jesus, but there are several paths leading to Him.
Blessings

I have found that, too.
You think Jesus would have practiced Hindu Yoga? 🧘 Kundalini Yoga? Tantric Yoga?
Her lack of body fat didn’t help her attempt to save herself.
Finally a genuine tragedy
Poor thing
There is more to cleansing the human soul than most Christians understand.
Just as Christian religious beliefs and practices evolved into many diverse denominations, with many diverse practices, so has Hinduism, Buddhism, and all other religions.
At the core is a universal truth that helps you understand the physical soul growth process better.
I was attending a lecture by Thich Nhat Hanh, a famous Buddhist monk many years ago. There was a Methodist minister also in attendance and at the end of a week long retreat, the minister stated, “After all these years at the pulpit teaching Christianity, I can honestly say that I never really understood it until now when I look at Christianity from a Buddhist perspective. “
The two religions are very much the same.
She became one with nature.
No they aren’t, sure general everyday generics, “be nice to people”, “don’t murder”, but not in the most important parts, the parts that most matter, the parts that God requires and insists on.
What a pantload — looking to a post-WW2 Methodist for any kind of wisdom. Their missionaries and administrative headquarters and then their seminaries were devastated by apostacy starting in the 1920s and reaching the pews in the 1970s. Even the breakaway GMC doesn’t get it, or they wouldn’t be allowing women pastors. Just no.
Sounds like you’re in love with a touchy feely memory you had, as you say, many years ago, under Eastern practices. Have you not evolved since then?
When you first started posting your self-elevating spiritualist pronouncements on FR, you did not sound Christian at all. After many tellings-off by Christians, you now profess His name. How can any of us trust your intentions, when you defend “all other religions” in your post? There is one religion in particular that exists only to destroy Christianity.
Many Christians were killed by rightous Christians like you trying to prove they were right.
This is the reason tribulation is needed to burn the weeds.
My guess is you think Halloween is Satanic as well.
False equivalence. I’m not trying to prove anything. Nor to kill anyone.
. . but stupidity goes clear through to the bone . . . . . and . . . . . it’s gone.
