Be gentle with everything in your life.

This is what our yoga practice is trying to accomplish. Not white light descending from heaven and engulfing you, not energy released from the base of your spine going up through your crown chakra so you become a human lightening bolt, not a halo floating on top of your head. Simply heightened states of awareness, enlightenment, becoming more and more aware which gives more and more insight, which brings wisdom and gives choice. With that wisdom and choice, we become the masters of our destiny and at peace in our life.

Exactly like everything around us, we are made of the same elements of this earth and are totally dependent on this earth for our sustenance.

Every experience we have is necessary and perfect. In other words, everything is Perfect.

Yoga doesn't ask you to be more than you are. But it does ask you to be all that you are.

Simply because everything is perfect does not imply there is nothing to be done. Actually, it is pretty much the opposite. There is everything to be done.

As a matter of fact, wherever I get to is a direct result of where I'm at now which makes where I'm at now equally important.
