The Secret Beauty of Constant Practice

As we look forward and envision this year, we understand that ultimately, we don’t seek to fulfill some new desires or hopes, but to cultivate a thirst for freedom, balance, love, and beauty…

Yoga tells us that future suffering can and should be avoided.
How? By the wisdom of detachment, remaining as the Witness, the Heart, not just through some new year wishes—wishes will not really change destiny.

This is a time of commitment to Reality and the intention to be truly present.
Nourish a pure longing to engage in life as it is, not as you hope or wish it to be. In each moment, the only available choice is: Do you want Reality, Truth, Beauty, Love, God, or something else?

Commit to meditation and see it not just as a practice but as a way of honoring and loving yourself, nourishing the beauty of your soul.

We can’t really put aside Self-Awareness and Self-Love, just as we can’t ignore breathing or eating or sleeping. It is self-sabotage.

Choose to practice, to quench this thirst for Self-Awareness—no one else can do it for you. What matters most is not the length of your meditations, but their regularity.

The constancy of the spiritual journey isn’t about always being “good” and equanimous without faltering. It is mostly about stumbling, over and over, but witnessing it, coming back to the Heart, again and again.

Life is a play made up of daily events and unexpected occurrences—grace or challenges. To live in constancy is to embrace both. In this way, we awaken to the mystery of being here, now and enter the quiet immensity of our own presence.

The time is ripe for spanda, the Sacred Tremor of the Heart, to surprise and liberate us.
