who knows ?

What do we really know for sure? That we are going to die sometime and we were born sometime ago. We know we need to eat, sleep, drink and go to the toilet. I'm sure there are more things and those wise souls of you reading this can make a longer list if you like.

Once we have decided what we know for sure. We then could experiment with what we are not too sure about.

If you are a practising Yogi can you be very honest with yourself and ask if you have really achieved anything worthwhile from the practising you have done? Make another list if you like!

We have a brain and we have a nervous system we do know that for sure, for sure.

How is our brain function at the moment, is it a happy brain, an unhappy brain, a needy brain? The brain is us, I think that can be stated as more or less a fact too. How do we treat our brain and nervous system?

I think we need to get to a point of realisation in seeing that 'we' are responsible for our own lives. If you need a teacher that's great, but have you asked what you may be learning from this teacher. If you need a plumber you would not call an electrician would you? So if you think you 'need' a yoga teacher, you really 'should' ask yourself why it is you 'think' you need a yoga teacher, be very clear indeed.

If you don't know what it is exactly what you need you may be going to a plumber when you really need an electrician.

If you know what you need then you can ask 'the yoga teacher' in question if they can provide it.

Now there's a thought!
