No Practice!
What happens to you if you do not practice?
Do you start getting into your head?
Do your energy levels appear to drop?
Do you become more emotional, reactive?
It seems to me that for some of us a practice is not a luxury, for some of us a practice is a necessity.
Those lucky souls that always appear to be okay are a strange phenomenon in my world. Do we always have to appear to be okay? Is there some agenda somewhere that says we always have to be happy?
I think there is - especially in the yoga world.
If you have found it necessary to lock yourself away from the world in an ashram then that is the decision you made at some point for your own well being.
I really don't like it when a 'benighted soul' that is always apparently happy, joyous and free, makes smug judgements about us 'poor miseries' that inhabit the material world.
It is my preference to 'think' that we are all 'free spirits' with individual choices and free will. We are empowering ourselves with our practices to go deeper into our own incarnation in order to seek out our own true will.
If you 'need' to belong to a group or a tribe or whatever you want to call it then do so. But watch out for the hidden agenda of 'holier than thou' looking down your noses at so called 'ordinary people' that aren't as unlucky as you to have 'seen the light' of the one true God!
Abrahadabra!
