Wednesday Aug 01, 2018

05/15/2018 Sit. Stay.
Tuesday May 15, 2018
Tuesday May 15, 2018
Gurudevi dives into the meaning of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra 2.46, sthira sukham asanam. Sthira (stillness), sukham (ease), asanam (the seated pose). Just sit and stay. Your body begins to settle, and your breath spontaneously slows down and lengthens. You’ll find the space, the pause between the movements of your breath, and you’ll fall in. Those pauses are an entry point into the deeper dimensions of your own being. Your mind settles and turns inward to explore the entire expanse of Consciousness within.

Gurudevi explains that life and yoga are not about being balanced but about being centered. You don’t become centered by doing it in a balanced way. You need to obsess on Consciousness, diving deep inside, to become established in your center. That single-minded approach brings nothing but benefit.

From this one thing you will gain all of these goals. How is it that one thing can do so much for you? How is it that one thing can do things that seem opposite to each other?
