Inspirerende Yoga Quotes
Yoga Quotes
Yoga er dypest sett å transendere sinnets begrensninger. Så lenge vi styres av sinnet, styres vi av fortiden. Sinnet er ikke annet enn akkumulering av levd liv som vi er dømt til å gjenta på nytt og på nytt', inntil vi er i stand til å mestre det. Fra et Yogisk perspektiv handler menneskets 'separasjon' kun om sinnets bindinger. Transcenderes sinnet fullstendig, transcenderes også tid, rom og dualisme (meg og deg, her og der, lys og mørke). I tradisjonell og akademisk sammenheng, betyr klassisk yoga, Patanjali Yoga. I Patanjali's Sutra beskrives konkret hva yogaens høyeste praksis Samadhi innebærer. Etter min mening, beskrives også den opplyste bevissthetens kvaliteter.

Therefore there is a possibility for that which is timeless and eternal to come into being. This whole process is meditation.
