Yoga of Action requires us to act consciously so as to grow spiritually.
- No action is not an option, as there can be no growth.
- Acting in a way that causes dis-ease, or dis-harmony causes regression.
- Acting with equanimity or balanced "ease-iness" (as I sometimes call it) sows the seeds for steady spiritual growth.
From the Bhagavad Gita (chapter 3), Krishna describes the actions that are appropriate for such growth; for example, acting without personal gain will free you your mind from the results of the action. Hence a dedication for your actions in a Yoga Class.
Class Tips: -
- Offer your actions up for the benefit of another.
- Practice without an idea of success vs failure, enjoyment vs suffering, or good vs bad, etc. Instead practice each pose and take each breath with a steady, yet open "ease-iness."
- Check in at the end of the class, and during your day, and see what the outcome is.
Namaste.
