My Yoga Practice


My yoga practice: 

there's a great deal of love for my yoga practice, it's not what everyone needs, but it's exactly what suits me best for these times and I'm completely devoted to its path. Most importantly, this doesn't involve any sense of searching for a final answer, it's not about arriving at any certain truth that will reveal the secrets of reality, perhaps providing me with enlightenment. I simply love yoga, how it affects my body and mind, calming me to the point of such easy acceptance of the world. 

there's no need for me to argue with reality.

things are exactly as they are.

and even now they're in the midst of changing. 

what yoga does provide is a deep change of physiology, a neurological restructure, polishing us from individual cells to vibrational brain waves, and we are then reassembled as something entirely new. It seems far fetched but modern science now largely bears this out. My personal thoughts are beyond the need to argue in the defense of yoga. I simply love my yoga practice, that it brings me immense joy through every aspect that it offers, from its psychological/philosophical foundations all the way to the asanas that I hold and the peacefulness of meditation. Yoga enlarges my world to the the point where absolutely nothing is excluded, everything belongs, at least for the moment of their appearance - and just as easily I surrender to a changing world, no longer grasping at things that weren't meant to stay for very long. 

or at least not so tightly. 

there's just less need to argue with reality.
