Thought for the Week : ON PRACTICE

And this is true. You may have a wide sea of theoretical knowledge but where there is not practice, the goal of Yoga is lost. If you've chosen to follow the path of a Yogi in modern day life, do that extra bit. Wake up before the sun rises. Take a shower, have a cleansing ginger-lemon-honey tea. Spend half hour in meditation and open your eyes to the rising sun. Even half hour of practice a day is a good start, but it is the discipline that will get you the benefits.

Thought for the Week : ON DEFINITION OF SELF

When you extend your definition of "Self" beyond the limits of your life, then you expand your life to other's lives. Their problems become your problems, their victories become your victories and their limitations become your limitations. The world changes and your universe expands. Doorways and opportunities open up that you may have never imagined. Try it this week. Extend your definition of yourself to that person you dislike, or to the beggar on the street, or to someone you consider bad. Or extend your definition of self to a friend who just bagged that great job that you wanted, or to someone who just bought  a great new house. 

When this defintion expands, you start to extend your energy body to others, realise that the bounderies of our life do not end with us. The "I" self, the Ego, which is normally shrunk, will expand to the whole universe. Doors will open up to your life that you never considered possible.

Realising your Perfect Self

A Beautiful thought By Osho, and I had to store it here.

This is the most fundamental thing in Tantra, that it says that you are already perfect. No other vision says that. They say you have to achieve it; they say you have to go, you have to struggle, and you have to do many things and the path is arduous; and it is very very rarely that somebody reaches because the goal is very very distant; and for millions of lives one has to try, and then one reaches; perfection has to be achieved. Tantra says this is the reason why you are not achieving. Perfection has not to be achieved. It has to be simply realized that it is there.
