History

Nakamura Tempu created his Japanese Yoga from a variation of Raja Yoga and Karma Yoga, with an emphasis on the latter, which he learned from his Indian teacher Kaliapa (also spelled Cariapa and Kariappa), who took him to Gorkhe, in eastern Nepal.

Goal and means

The goal of this way of mind and body unification is the free use of our mind and bodies and realize our true nature as human beings. We must be able to use our most fundamental tools (the mind and body) naturally, effectively and in coordination of each other to artistically express ourselves in life. Three elements that are key in this process are:

1. Training to reveal the nature of positivity.
2. Reformation of the subconscious.
3. Regulating and maintaining a balanced condition in the nervous system.

Principles and methods

The teachings recognize four basic principles to unify mind and body (shin shin t?itsu no yondai gensoku):

1. Use the mind in a positive way (fud?shin resulting in "ki no dashikata" i.e. the projection of life energy).
   1. Examine the self.
   2. Analyze suggestions received from your environment.
   3. Examine your attitude towards others.
   4. Discover the present and let the worrying about the future or the past fall away.
   5. Experience the universal mind.
2. Use the mind with full concentration.
   1. Concentrate on matters you are familiar with.
   2. Concentrate on matters you wish to accomplish in a hurry.
   3. Concentrate on matters you believe are uninteresting.
   4. Concentrate on matters you believe are of no value.
3. Use the body naturally.
4. Train the body gradually, systematically and continuously.

According to the founder, humans need six qualities to express themselves in living.
