Enjoying the Yoga Sutras
I have decided to begin studying the Yoga Sutras, not just reading them, but searching for the meaning. I have some MP3s that I got at Arsha Vidya Gurukulum (which is one of the ashrams of my guru, Shri Swami Dayananda Saraswati). He reminds me of the truth of myself: a conscious being which is limited by my body-mind-sense complex. Recently I rededicated myself to my studies so that I am scheduling time for myself to do this. I tend to be undisciplined, so I need a schedule! I am working my way thru a million books and listening to my guru. I plan to start a Yoga Sutras study group at Yoga East so that like minded people may gather together in common interest of truth being revealed. I am enjoying the snow today. I love the silence in the snow, the crunch of it under my step, listening to my windchimes in it and watching the dogs revel in it! except Daisy Mae, the beagle, who desperately wants her sweater on! Flaggy, our border collie corgi mix, rolls in it, runs, cools his belly in it. We are also watching my dad's dog, Josh and he's a jack russell- they are a little "interesting" as one of my friends would say, another version of "bless your heart"- so at first, he barked at it, then decided he liked it and ran around in circles until he wore himself out! The start of a new class begins tonight- I look forward to meeting some new students and possibly seeing some regulars. Hopefully there won't be too much traffic with all the snow since people turn suddenly brilliant when there's water of any state on the roads!
