Two years ago I had an epiphany regarding the nature of consciousness.
It changed my life and the lives of the people around me.
But this “news” wasn’t meant for me. After all, Patanjali didn’t write the Yoga Sutras for himself! He was CLEARLY already enlightened!
I’ve spent 24/7 for two years trying to enlighten others. I came enticingly close a few times – which just fed my enormous ego.
Today my teacher told me I can’t.
Apparently something priceless can’t be given away.
BUT if you’ve read my post about being a 60 year old addict (and Irish) you know this new news isn’t going to stop me from trying!!
She told me lovingly; frankly, it was quite touching. She acknowledged that my heart’s in the right place, but pointed out what’s so clear to her and others: my head and heart aren’t working together. Too much of one or the other is actually self destructive.
[And here I thought I was in perfect balance!]
If you haven’t seen this cartoon clip about “keeping your nose and belly button facing in the same direction” it’s well worth a few minutes:

My newest marketing effort is called “Back to Basics” (we’ll see how long I can go without talking about consciousness! Ooops!)
Ultimately, Raja Yoga is about becoming one with the universe, but the first step is “ahimsa”: the opposite of violence: love – and it begins with you.
