“Yoga is an ancient discipline in which physical postures, breath practice, meditation, and philosophical study are tools for achieving liberation. In my interpretation, achieving liberation in yoga means learning how to be present with everything that arises, whether it is pain or pleasure, sadness or joy, failure or success. And to be present with whatever arises, I believe we must not only be aware of what is arising but we must also be able to see all things that arise as equal, with detachment.” BelieveMeanAblePainJoyI BelievePleasurePracticeStudyMeditationSadnessAchieveDisciplineEqualYogaToolsAll ThingsPhilosophicalBreathsAncientAriseLiberationInterpretationDetachmentPosture Book:Moving Toward Balance: 8 Weeks of Yoga with Rodney Yee Source: Moving Toward Balance: 8 Weeks of Yoga with Rodney Yee
“the very minute we think we 'have' God, God will surprise us. As we search in fire and earthquakes, God will be in the still small voice. As we listen in silent meditation, God will be shouting protests in the street. God is warning us that we had best not try to find our security in any well-defined concept or category of what is Godly - for the minute we believe we are into God, God is off again and calling us forth into some unknown place.” ThinkingTryingBelieveWellsStillsGodVoiceFireMeditationStreetsMinutesSecurityCallingConceptsSilentSurpriseGods WillDefinedProtestCategoriesWarningGodlyEarthquakesShoutingSmall VoiceSilent Meditation Author:Carter Heyward
