The way I've heard it explained is that it's basically the same as an open invitation on a Ouija Board: don't specify what you're calling out to and all sorts of things can show up.Where do they get this crap?
God forbid someone should sit in silent meditation! It might draw in the spirit of God!
More likely it's the result of Christians seeing their true thoughts.

You know, when I was a kid my friend and I played with a Ouija board. An old man (old to us 12 year olds) from the library gave a creepy warning about "possession". That Ouija board went back in its box so fast!

It's the demons, I tells you! Deeeemons!
As is, apparently, stretching.
You know, this brings to mind such great Christian brothers as Thomas Merton, David Steindl-rast and others who have been shining examples of love. Likewise, the Desert Fathers also engaged in silent reflection.
This is the same guy that says that male (solo) masturbation is homosexual in nature because, well, you are having sex with a man.
The dude is a nut.
Why are you hating on Bacchus? Of the Greco-Roman deities He is one of the cooler ones!

I am saying that in response of it prayer in Muslims is best practice for your mind and body than any sort of exercise of practice like that.

love the way they have developed christian yoga, how easy !!From what I can see, they've re-named a few positions, they say a prayer or passage from the Bible before/after, and they don't try to achieve union.
So not much.
replace krishna in BG with jesus, then it becomes jesus geeta(JG).
nb: nothing against jesus christ intented.

I agree, both are great loving teachers!
true, if they are of same quality you cannot love one, denying the other.

Most things can be done. I do would agree it is best to accept both´s messages of love, as ultimately, they both expressed love for God and everyone

you mean its possible denying the other? then it would not be just the quality they loves ..

To be honest I am losing focus on what you are saying by now
I mean alot of people have true devotion and love for Christ, but they distrust Krishna because of not knowing him enough or thinking he shold be seen as "bad" because of being of another different religion.

i did not mean it in this situation, once realized they posses same quality it is impossible.To be honest I am losing focus on what you are saying by now

CONDITIONAL love, religion matters to them.

The lack of understanding, combined with arrogance and a belief thats not based on facts, leads to fear. Fear often times leads hatred and/or denouncing something as bad/evil.
Or, maybe this is a case of a person with a mental illness (remember the back-masking of rock-n-roll that was the devils music?).
Or simply wanting attention.
Maybe even a combination of all these .?

depends on the degree of the realization.

Demonic?! Yoga's not demonic! Have you seen the incredibly tight, stretchy pants that girls wear while doing yoga?! That's a gift from God, my friend.
