SAT-CHIT-ANANDA


The Teacher's Training I was so busy with the last month came to an end on 22 Feb, and I am feeling nostalgic within a mixed sense of emptiness and excitement. It was an intensive training with long hours of studies, exams and early morning and evening practices. Many of us were really tired with information overload. Yet, this training has been revealing in many ways, especially in the way I see myself and the way I see the world. There were so much sharing and shedding of tears, affirmation of relationships, recognition of efforts and limitations, new found respect and love, and most importantly, a willingness to embrace infinite possibilities and just be.

Pulsation in our breaths reflects the knowing and sharing in our hearts. I was once again asked the question during the training - What Yoga is to me. And my answer has refined itself. "It is an inward Journey of self discovery where awareness is cultivated to create balance in all aspect of our lives".

A kula has been formed and in there 24 hearts shone so bright that we blazed the sky. I was moved and very inspired to have seen each and everyone transformed. From a little me, we became a bigger us. We let go of all that we clung to, and we opened to grace, supporting each other, and we open to the universe with smiles on our faces and strength in our hearts, co-creating with playfulness and curiosity. Even though we separated and went back to our lives, our hearts stay united, blessed and grateful.

"Community does not mean living face to face with others, rather it means never loosing the awareness that we are connected to each other. Its not about the presence of each other, it is about being fully open to the reality of relationship." ~ author unknown.

With this beautiful verse blanketed over us, our breath is steady and our vision clears.
