These atoms whirling through the world⁠ Are nothing but madmen!⁠ Can’t you see them dancing⁠ Lost, dazzled in Him?⁠ One day in your wineshop I drank a little wine⁠ And threw off the robe of this body:⁠ I knew, drunk on Love, this world is harmony:⁠ Creation, destruction, I’m dancing for them both.⁠ ⁠ Jalaluddin Rumi, as rended by Andrew Harvey,⁠ from Love’s Fire, Recreations of Rumire⁠ ⁠ Thank you @zanyyogi for sharing this beauty with me <3 ⁠ ⁠ Image from the reflections of @danielnjohnson⁠ ⁠ #rumi #poetry # inspiration #tantra #teachyoga #yogaretreat #yogaretreat2020 #samavesayoga #yogateachertraining #yogatraining #yogabali #yogainspiration #baliyogaretreat⁠ #teachertraining
“To look through another’s eyes, for even a moment.” Thoreau⁠ ⁠ What is life like for you? I wonder about a world where we are all genuinely curious about each other. I wonder how you experience your body, your breath, your eyes. I wonder what sensations flash through your nervous system when you wake in the morning. I wonder how you like to be touched and about the words that might soothe you to sleep. I wonder what it’s like to long from your heart and how you experience taste or smell. I wonder what stories you hold onto and how you loved your mother. I wonder where you store your feelings when they weigh too heavy on your mind. I wonder, what is life like for you? <3 ⁠ ⁠ #yogateacher #presence #authenticrelating #curiosity #teachyoga #yogaretreat #yogaretreat2020 #samavesayoga #yogateachertraining #yogatraining #yogabali #yogainspiration #baliyogaretreat⁠ #teachertraining
"My mind is a bad neighborhood, i don't like to go there alone". Tara Brach quoting some other wise soul on her elegant, grace-full, illuminating and amusing podcast. Be kind to yourself today. Plant seeds of promise and possibility. Take time to pause in the soft ground of your being and rest there a while. Look out beyond the thicket of your mind and taste reality as it is, before you project your story onto it. Widen out into the soundscape, open the sense gates and call yourself back home <3 ⁠ ⁠ #freedom #peace #stillness #grace #meditation #teachyoga #yogateachertraining #teachertraining #yogabali #bali #samavesayoga #yogainspiration
When despair for the world grows in me⁠ and I wake in the night at the least sound⁠ in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,⁠ I go and lie down where the wood drake⁠ rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.⁠ I come into the peace of wild things⁠ who do not tax their lives with forethought⁠ of grief. I come into the presence of still water.⁠ And I feel above me the day-blind stars⁠ waiting with their light. For a time⁠ I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.⁠ ⁠ The Peace of Wild Things by Wendell Berry⁠ ⁠ #freedom #peace #stillness #grace #meditation #teachyoga #yogateachertraining #teachertraining #yogabali #bali #samavesayoga
O P E N T H E C H A N N E L⁠ ⁠ “There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open..."⁠ Martha Graham⁠ ⁠ #fuckyes #openchannel #teachyoga #yogateacher #presence #tantra #yogaretreat #yogaretreat2020 #samavesayoga #yogateachertraining #yogatraining #yogabali #yogainspiration #baliyogaretreat⁠ #teachertraining
