There are lots of differences between medicinal Kaya Kalpa and yogic Kaya Kalpa. For those who ate medicinal Kaya Kalpa they can postpone their death and can indulge into Worldly affairs without perception. But through yogic Kaya Kalpa.. we can eliminate the ego, control the mind and makes your body a blessed one.
Yogic Kaya Kalpa is all about controlling your mind through yoga, i.e., controlling mind is the ultimate goal. The one who can control the prana can control the mind and the one who can control the mind can control breath. Because if we control either mind or breath, the other one will be controlled, this is yogic Kaya Kalpa.
Thirumoolar has said the same clearly in his Thiru manthiram.
"ஏற்றி யிறக்கி யிருகாலும் பூரிக்குங்
yaetri yirakki yirukaalum poorikkung
காற்றைப் பிடிக்குங் கணக்கறி வாரில்லை
kaatraip pidikkung kanakkari vaarillai
காற்றைப் பிடிக்குங் கணக்கறி வாளர்க்குக்
kaatraip pidikkung kanakkari vaalarkku
கூற்றை யுதைக்குங் குறியதுவாமே
kootrai yuthaikkung kuriyathuvaamae"
- திருமந்திரம் (Thirumanthiram)
All of them cannot attain this Yogic Kalpa and then what is the way of attaining it? Thirumoolar has said that also.
"வளியினை வாங்கி வயத்தில் அடக்கில்
valiyinai vaangi vayaththil adakkil
பளிங்கொத்துக் காயம் பழுக்கனும் பிஞ்சாம்
palingoththuk kaayam pazhukkanum pinjaam
தெளியக் குருவின் திருவருள் பெற்றால்
theliyak kuruvin thiruvarul petraal
வளியினும் வேட்டு அளியனும் ஆமே
valiyinum vaettu aliyanum aamae"
- திருமந்திரம் (Thirumanthiram)
It means that one can attain it only through a guru says Thiru Moolar. Then how can we find the guru through whom we can attain it? This is the general question that arises in everyone's mind. We will see all those details in our next article.
