I am doing the 21 Day Abundance Meditation Challenge from Deepak Chopra (thank you Kamal for pointing that out). The word "challenge" sounded strange at first, but having 10 minutes to focus on abundance in the silence of the morning is proving more abundantly good than I could have ever guessed, regardless of naming strategies to optimize SEOs.
And speaking of abundance, how blessed are we when we receive an invitation -for free- to read the Second Part of Krishnamacharya's Yoga Makaranda? (thank you Grimmly!). I am counting the moments until my to-do list eases up so I can start reading. And by the way, if you wanted to start with part one, here is a link for that too.
And speaking of challenge/projects this yogini is running a 15 Day Gratitude Project. Great idea! Nothing like gratitude to help abundance flow.

Video Of The Week: The Swami That Lives In the Cave At Chamundi Hill in Mysore:
Fear Nothing: (2:52) Fear nothing fear nothing worry. Don't think of all the bad things in the world, or you would go mad, go meditate. Because of your goodness there will be good vibrations all around that will impact people surrounding you.
What is God? Nobody can answer... To know more about him you need to know bout yourself it can't be explained because your experience will be different, my experience is different.
Death: Nothing to fear. We should be afraid of being born...

She's dancing, I like that metaphor.
ReplyDeleteYes, it changes the perception, it points in the right direction :-)
ReplyDeleteSpirituality is most insidious form of self-delusion and it’s got you Claudia.
ReplyDeleteReading your blog, it seems to me that you trying to find meaning and happiness, trying to live life in accord with higher laws, trying to live in harmony with the earth and your fellow man, trying to be sweet and green. It’s all about living life of love and peace, isn't it? Yoga, pranayama, meditation, cleaning of chakras, eating well, loving kindness, living in the moment, spiritual books etc… it seems so sweet and pleasant and good, something highly desirable.
… and comforting.
And this is exactly what illusion or matrix does. This is how illusion holds the whole thing together. Keeping you snoring in deep, pleasant and comfortable sleep.
What do you really want? Ask yourself. Truth? Liberation?
I already know the answer because in the final analysis the hope of every person is simply peace of mind. You want peace of mind.
And this is the reason I am writing this comment. I am here to tell you that there is no such thing as peace of mind. In real spirituality the peace of mind is the enemy. It's the worst thing in the world. It’s timidity. It’s slavery. It is a fetal thing that's still keeping you plugged into the matrix.
Virtually all of spirituality is about being happy and ignorant in this dream state, in this shit-river. Yes, it stinks but it is warm and cosy, and that's what people want.
Your spirituality (the intellectual and emotional ignorance) is fully visible, and I can tell you that all the compassion, meditation and pranayama in the world won't drag you up out of that river. No knowledge or depth of understanding translates into a single step of upward progress.The spirituality approach like love and compassion never has and never will move anyone a single step in the direction of awakening. The point isn't to study and understand and cherish the spirituality, the point is to drop spirituality.
Well... On the end, it doesn't matter what I think. I'm just telling you what I see, and what you'll see if you open your eyes and look.
