To Be A Real Human Being
Be very conscious of your breath as you practice yoga online. The breath is how you control this bio-computer. You’ve taken the time, your life, to program it so far. The only way to gain control of it is through your breath. So be conscious of each breath. See if you can actually stay with the breath and not be distracted by your mind. Not let yourself daydream. Not think of something else that you’d rather be doing. Just be here now. Inhaling Wah, Exhaling Guru, long and deep. Watch yoga videos to see how best to do it.
Triangle pose is one of those positions where if you practice it, it tells you what is wrong with your body. If it’s hard for you, or if there’s pain in your side for example, then there is a problem with either your gallbladder or your liver. So the idea is to do this pose for a minute each day and just take an inventory of your body. See how your feel. Cause it should be natural and easy. It aligns the magnetic field. It puts all the meridians back in the proper frequency. A really simple exercise, but it requires that you just take a minute and do it.
When we do a set of exercises, it’s called a kriya. We do a set of exercises that flow together and that hopefully have a theme. The theme tonight is overall health of your body physically, the strength of your aura, your frequency and your magnetic field.
We are beings of light that inhabit this physical body, this human archetype, this journey of DNA that we’ve all made. The idea in yoga gives you the power to have the control, not only of this body, but of your mind. You have to make that distinction, as a yogi, between you and your mind. That means you have to go into meditation, deep silence within, and try to find your real essence, the light that illuminates this body. That’s really the purpose of this life.
The purpose of this class is to give you some clues through our yoga videos about how to get back to that point of origin, that point that we all started from, that bindu, that place where it took two bodies to make one.
So it’s your job as a human being, a being with an aura, a hue, to find the origin of that aura, of that light. Differentiate that light and the physical manifestations, the symptoms, of that light. So you have to have a discerning intellect. Doesn’t mean you have to be intellectual. It just means you have to be aware and not be taken in by the illusion that’s constantly put in front of you, not only this material world but of your own mind. You have to have that discerning part of you that sits back in this body cave and observes the truth with joy and wonder, because it is an infinite horizon that you live on. That infinite horizon is always beckoning. You have to be able to stand on the precipice of that horizon, that cliff overlooking all eternity. You have to have the presence of mind to just laugh and be joyful in that experience.
Hold the breath. Seal off the lower triangle. Put a pressure at the sphincter muscle, put a pressure at the diaphragm. Physically feel as through you’re pulling the energy upward or sealing off the lower centers. You’re eliminating the leaks of consciousness, the leaks of energy. Exhale. Relax your breath, long and deep. Stay centered within.
