I feel balanced and aware!

 

To review this months Niyama - Svadhyaya - self - study, to know ourselves. This invites us to release the false and limiting self-perception our ego has imposed on us and know the truth of our Divine self

We suffer because we forget who we are.  

 

I shared in class last week and I think its worth writing a story from Deborah Adele’s Yamas and Niyamas book - God created humans and then he called a group of elders together to report that he had made a terrible mistake…he had made humans and now they would constantly call on him, want to talk to him, want things from him and he would get no rest.  So someone suggested he hide on Mount Everest or the moon and then he said no humans are resourceful they will eventually find me there.  Then one elder whispered in his ear and God shouted, thats it - I’ll hide inside of each human, they will never find me there!

 

Svadhyaya is our pathway to the Divine inside each of us.  What better time of year than now to do the work to connect daily with ourselves to uncover the ego’s wrappings around us and to find the Divine hiding inside of us.  In this place there is peace, balance and awareness - here we will find the Joy of the Holiday season!
