there is a power to which all temporal powers are beholden. there is a fabric of reality that exercises its power, tangibly intangibly continuously, the power of nature, the power of time, the power of light, the power of water.
isvara pranidhana, the last of the niyamas of patanjali’s yoga sutras is surrendering to that, surrendering into this infinite power in its manyness which is beyond our limited perception. the beginning of the beginning.
so my practice and the one I offer becomes about cultivating a deeper more intimate relationship with the power of the cosmos, a greater porosity with it so we can know it, drink from its wellspring, bathe in it.
the path in its infinite unlimited modalities becomes a pathless path of receptivity.
walk alongside my friends. we may stumble together, laugh and cry, it may look clumsy but it will be real embodied humble essential.
