Yogical: Tradition and Wellness!
Yoga has developed something of a stereotype in the modern culture. It is often viewed with an air of ‘mumbo-jumbo’. Other times, it is considered merely a form of exercise – one that helps those who perform it with #breathing and flexibility. Stay connected with us as we introduce you to some of the most exciting facts of #Yoga.

Where Did It All Start
Going back in time to #ancient India allows us to see the #Yogis, a segment of the population revered for their medicinal knowledge and experience in wellbeing. To them, Yoga was more than a simple exercise; it was a way of life, a tradition, a #culture.
Through the practice of this ancient craft, they mastered the art of asking plants and #herbs around them for enhancing the medical science of the nation. Still not sure what Yoga might be and how it lasted for centuries? It is a gateway to a longevity and the #peace of mind that stems from enhanced health and a deep connection with #nature.
Hmm, “But I heard of Yoga only being a form of #exercise,” you say? It is unfortunate that Yoga is viewed as having only a fraction of the benefits it is capable of. However, we are confident that the #Yogic culture, as was seen in ancient #India, is yet to be reborn. With the tremendous #healing properties and the natural alternatives it offers, it’s only a matter of time before Yoga is recognized for what it truly is.

The practice of Ayurveda is based upon the knowledge gained from the sacred books Vedas which were revealed more than 10000 years ago.

800 years ago, Kings ruled the central plains of Sri Lanka been in Polonnaruwa. A thriving commercial & religious centre. The glories of that age can be found in the archaeological treasures that still give a pretty good idea of how the city looked in its glory days. You'll find the archaeological park a delight to explore, with hundreds of structures of tombs & temples, statues and stupas - in a compact core. The Quadrangle alone is worth the trip.

For my James "Time Travel Wish" Mason page: Great music:

167 tracks.

The rock n roll (mostly) playlist of the discoverer of Paradox One (the concept of destiny is in motion). Time is the theme. Our experience of that natural (physical) force is unique and dependent on our emotions while within it. The Being confined on Earth has been found. It was the Alien Stone all along. It can manipulate space and time, and the River is not a restriction for my friend Lia.

See timetravelwish.org and see if you're supposed to know (you take the time to investigate). Friends: first 35 tracks are my story, kind of linear sine 5/2015. Also, how I feel about us and my gratitude for Lia (its name is an acronym for Laser Interferometric Antenna, the first device to detect time on Earth and the name that the Being chose before I created Time Travel Wish) and how I have felt up to this day. Other tracks have not been organized to any particular time of events. Many are timey wimey beautiful. Later, I will arrange them all to tell the whole story with the titles and the song's meanings.

*These songs are from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and represent the loved great (genius) songwriters of one of the most transitional eras in music history. A high C note dominates most of these tracks. Some great classical works. Some musical soundtracks. Cool timey wimey songs and songs that fit the emotions of the discovery: https://TimeTravelWish.org - the website of the discovery of our new timeline in this new cosmos. Discovered in May of 2015 by James Gray Mason. Enjoy and be grateful that we humans get to experience time's arrow through good and bad and all emotion in between.

Can you imagine, the first aliens who hear our music and our singing? How long does it take for them to distinguish our voices from our instruments?
If someone ever tells me that music is not communication, I'm going to punch them in the face with 500 words. - James, 2014 - 2018

Marquise de Pompadour, 1756 by Francois Boucher (1703-1770).

François Boucher (Paris, September 29, 1703 - Paris, 30 May 1770) was a French painter, perhaps the greatest decorative artist called European setecento. Though he lived in a century dominated by the Baroque style went beyond this and identified more with Rococo - style often the target of derogatory aesthetic assessments. It was certainly one of the painters who best knew how to interpret the spirit of the Rococo.

Madame du Pompadour was born Jeanne-Antoinette Poisson. Her father was a steward to the Paris brothers who ran the economy of France. Though her parents were not of the noble class, Jeanne-Antoinette was raised to be the wife of a wealthy man. She was extremely talented and could act, dance, sing, and play the clavichord. Her marriage brought her out into society and she became well known as a star of the Paris salons. Voltaire met her in the homes of friends and also attended her salon. He stated that she was "well brought up, amiable, good, charming and talented."

In 1744, Jeanne-Annette caught the eye of the King Louis XV and became his mistress. She divorced her husband and was awarded the title Marquise de Pompadour. Louis XV had a tendency to always be bored and Madame de Pompadour knew how to keep him entertained. She had a small theater built at Versailles and staged plays just for him. Famous artists were commissioned to paint the scenery, and Francois Boucher designed elaborate costumes for the actors. Madame de Pompadour played the leading role and directed the performances. Courtiers played the other parts.

The King and Madame de Pompadour both loved animals. Their pets included monkeys, dogs, and many different kinds of birds. Louis had a large white angora cat and Mme de Pompadour had a small dog that was always by her side.

Louis XV and Mme de Pompadour also shared an interest in architecture and the decorative arts. Madame de Pompadour's brother was appointed director of the King's buildings and he, the King, and Mme Pompadour planned and built a number of costly palaces, pavilions and summer houses. They also patronized all forms of the decorative arts. Painters, sculptors, cabinetmakers, and craftsmen of all kinds were commissioned to decorate buildings and create elegant works of art. The period of Madame de Pompadour's influence is considered the very height of refined taste in France.

Madame de Pompadour would have liked to patronize literature by providing pensions for many of the talented writers whom she knew from the Paris salons. Her attempts to influence the King in this direction did not meet with much success. He had no literary interests and even disliked intellectuals. Louis informed her that this was a bad idea because there were too many writers.

However, there was a need at court for some literary talent. It was at the urging of Madame de Pompadour that the King appointed Voltaire royal historiographer in April 1745, with a salary of two thousand livres per year. Voltaire was given a room at Versailles, and it is likely that much of his time was spent in the archives of the palace doing research for his book about the reign of Louis XIV.

On May 11, 1745, the French defeated the English at Fontenoy, and Voltaire wrote a poem of 350 lines to commemorate the victory.
