The Yoga of Distance Running - 1:2



Just as, in this body, the Self
passes through childhood, youth,
and old age, so after death
it passes to another body.
                                         (Bhagavad Gita (2:13)



~
Our steps are reborn in the continuation of our stride. In the endlessness of the
Self the stride is a thread between lifetimes. Every run is a finite span
within the infinite - our bodies, simply a vehicle for Self expressed
through time. Distance is the mirror of our
journey - a story told through
every stage.
With the run finished our stride remains, unseen, yet complete. We will run
another day and again the Self will seek its full expression in the
steps we take.

Peace,
Eric
