Religious observation of breathing

To understand life the yogis concentrate on the breath.  The observation of the breath is the only way to god, apparently.  When we go about our daily chores, we forget that we are always breathing. Only when we meditate the breath becomes  prominent.  The exchange of the universe and the self happens mainly by this means. A constant exchange. When the breathing stops, its all over.  No wonder Hindu yogis pay so much attention to it.

The unique nature of Hinduism

I am liking some aspects of Hinduism very much.  Travel and meditation is integrated  in to the Hindu faith.  Everyone knows travel educates and meditation revealed truths to prophets.  Travel and meditation  are so useful that the keepers of the Hindu faith asked everyone to do the same. This sharing of what is holy to the masses is what makes India such a spiritual place. Moreover, to make some places like Kedarnath holy not because it has some historic value but because God resides there currently is wonderful.  For the Hindus God is attained by paying attention to themselves like doing yoga and listening to their breath.  And yes even their gods live  on earth in the Himalayas.
