I am a very loving dedicated yogi.I have been studying yoga for 16 years and very intensively for six years. I have studied Bikram yoga with many different teachers in many different countries with many different students. I have had some kundalini lessons. I have studied some chi kung in china for 2 months. I recently returned from Yoga teacher training in india dharamsala with many beautiful students and teachers. Oh I one of my fellow students Karolina taught me some chakra cleansing techniques I am sharing and getting very positive feedback as to how it helps one improve meditation. The best thing I learned at teacher training was in someways all the breathing techniques and meditation practice.
OH and I should add this quote from an amazing mystic, as it is a major part of what is part, of how we can see what is wrong with life and what is right with it! meditate on this and learn real yoga.
He was not afraid to call himself a mystic but saw with amusement how the people who hoped he would be their guru,or spiritual guide,were shaken when they saw his 'element of irreducible rascality'.He knew what they wanted-an idealised incarnation of radiant tranquality,love and compassion-but he was to honest to confess to anything but 'a quaking and palpitating mess of anxiety which lust and loathes,needs love and attention,and lives in terror of death putting an end to it's misery' when he looked at himself.This insight led to see that to try to control the 'quaking mess',to deny it and despise it in favour of what a mystic was supposed to feel,was to miss reality altogether,for the very attempt to do so was simply one more desire of the quaking mess.The quaking mess itself was as much a part of the universe as the rain,or flies,or disease.To see it as divine did not abolish it but allowed one the peace of mind of acceptance and delivered one from schitzophrenic dichotomy of good against bad.
