Krishna Consciousness in Hatha Yoga

We are doing all things Hatha Yoga, you know, and when it comes down to it, Hatha Yoga is a...

It's a stepped path to...

Samadhi or liberation or enlightenment whatever you want to call it and on this path it's pretty it's a pretty hmm I was going to say straightforward but also that's very cyclical you know and So that's very contradictory, I understand, because you can't be straightforward and cyclical at the same time because a straight line and a circle, or a spiral rather, are two totally different things in shapes.

However, bear with me here.

And so we do these steps of hatha yoga to attain a point of I don't want to say perfection, because nothing is perfect, and that's not the right word, I feel.

But a peace and a serenity within yourself in any and every situation.

phase of your life.

Not to say that emotions do not come and go, just as if, you know, waves on an ocean or storms on the sea.

You know, there will be stormy days and there will be beautiful, bright, shiny days with no wind and all good, you know.

But there's also, yeah, storms and hurricanes and all sorts of shit that can happen.

And that's not a punishment.

It's just a part of life.

It's part of the duality.

Once we exist, you come into these dualities, good and bad, hot and cold.

light and dark, heavy and light, all of the things, you know, you have to have contrast in order to recognize anything, you know.

You only register pain because you're not in pain at the moment, you know.

And if you were in pain at the moment, you would start to recognize not pain faster, you know, because it's what you're not experiencing immediately.

So, Yeah, life is pretty trippy when you break it all down into these everything is just what it is and to not take it personally.
