.... Unsettled thinking does make one forget the Presence of God.

Look at the cruelty man inflicts on his fellow man. Do you think an oppressor is considering the Presence of god, or meditating, during his off hours?

So, where does this concept of evil meditation and bad Yoga come from? It originates from people who would rather keep the world divided. world peace could take their power away. Some of them pretend to be holy men, and some pretend to be peace-loving politicians.

Rudolph Hess spoke of world peace in a speech he gave on July 8, 1934. Some people, who heard or read it, believed his words. Unfortunately, the world paid the price, for believing his words, during World War II.

To push the envelope further, some religious fundamentalists will say that Yoga is the advanced scouting party for global proliferation of Hinduism, on a massive scale.
