MY YOGA PRACTICE




My daily yoga practice seems incomplete & challenging.
Day after day I practice and I never seem to reach my goal.
From time to time I reach different plateaus.
On each plateau my feeling grows stronger & stronger to see it through.
Practice brings my focus & attention deeper & deeper within myself.
Sometime I experience complete fullness yet feel empty & unsatisfied.  
I long for clear stillness as I push & direct my full attention to my body.
I work on skill to express my yoga with eloquence.
When I am cold I practice challenging poses to warm me up.
When I am hot I meditate and practice stillness to cool me down.
Clear stillness is my goal and aspiration.

THE WAY OF THE YOGI




Is your name or your body closer to the self?
Are possessions more worthy than the body?
What causes more pain profit or loss?
To be extremely fond of something will cost you a lot.
The more one has the more one can lose.
To know, one’s potential and limits is wise.
To follow the path carefully is the way of the yogi.
Understand these principles and live long.

THE PATH OF THE YOGI




The yogi follows the path of least resistance.
He transcends from being into nonbeing.
He conquers limits and boundaries.
With his softness and gentleness overcomes the hard and difficult.
Nonbeing has no limits, nor doors that can stop him.
Nonbeing with silent guidance sets him free.
Nonbeing is the transport that will allows him to travel through space & time.
Few are the ones who reach this level.
Yoga gives us all hope.
Daily practice is your best chance.

ENERGIES




Nature produces one (the mother, negative energy).
Out of one come two (the father, positive energy).
Two produces three (the son, the body).
Yoga practice maintains the body.
The body generates the mind.
Through yoga and meditation the mind becomes one with the spirit.
We are created by both negative & positive energies.
They produce all.
The yogi practices yoga to balance these two forces.
Not wanting to practice is not an option.
Our most sacred duty is to find our way.
Be responsible & discipline.
Do what is necessary not less may be more.
Learn to gain on time and don’t let time gain on you.

VIRTUE




Is higher moral goodness inherent, learned or divinely given?
Higher moral goodness has virtue.
Virtue pretenders expects to be rewarded.
Their virtue has no moral goodness.
Higher virtue comes about with great difficulty.
Yogis know there is no other way to earn it.
Pretend virtue is created and leads to disappointment.
Higher yoga practice is developed and leads to higher virtue.
Higher duty is closely related to yoga.
Be determent, practice daily and develop foresight.
Great yogis duel in the thick of their practice not the thin.
They focus on substance and not on results.

NATURAL QUALITIES




Empower your practice with natural qualities and unfold your inner potential.
To learn about this natural qualities is to be in balance with nature.
Within them all beings evolve gradually.
The poor practitioner and the restless could find stability in their simplicity.
Transcend from thinking to feeling.
Remain calm, focused and determent.
The sense of being is to feel the present.
The present its all expansive.
