\u201cIt is a strange and wonderful fact to be here, walking around in a body, to have a whole world within you and a world at your fingertips outside you. <\/strong><\/p>\n

It is an immense privilege, and it is incredible that humans manage to forget the miracle of being here. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Rilke said, \u2018Being here is so much,\u2019 and it is uncanny how social reality can deaden and numb us so that the mystical wonder of our lives goes totally unnoticed. <\/strong><\/p>\n

We are here. We are wildly and dangerously free.\u201d\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

– John O’Donohue<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Last day at Niroga Institute and being very sentimental about it – even in a state of denial thinking – oh, I will be back – really felt the sense of my back being nudged out the door – hahaha –\u00a0 GO ON & MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF ALL THAT WE’VE GIVEN YOU (YOGIC TOOLS).\u00a0 NOW IT’S TIME FOR ACTION. That’s the sense I felt from the Executive Director.\u00a0 Sweet warm hugs of good bye from the program manager and training manager – Rosalind and Heidi but BK?\u00a0 No such sentimentality – It’s more – go on – go on – get out there and make a difference if you are really my student – a wise Karma Yogi that he is.<\/p>\n

They have a clear vision, a purpose, an intention to what they will be exclusively doing\u00a0 expressed in their mission statement.\u00a0 I too will be formulating it, so that my actions are in bettter alignment with my higher Self and each action to be infused with my humble intention.\u00a0 It’s all possible. In our juggling act among conflicting forces, we can still find that clarity, balance and peace.\u00a0 In addition to the studies of physiology, anatomy and kinesiology\u00a0– more dynamic movement based mindfulness practices, Niroga has taught me that while there are many who are hurting, suffering, is a choice.\u00a0 While there are sometimes no cures, healing is a birthright, available to all.<\/p>\n

In gratitude to the teachers and cohorts who I learned so much from.<\/p>\n

Quoted by Rosalind Lwin, Health Program Manager @Niroga Institute, this, a quote from a poet I have always loved – what a coincidence or is it?<\/p>\n

“Your identity is not equivalent to your biography.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

There is a place in you where you have never been wounded,<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Where there’s a seamlessness in you, and where there is a\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

confidence and tranquility.”\u00a0 – John O’Donehue<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Thank you for building my confidence and for teaching me the tools to find tranquility amidst the distractions and disturbances. There’s that “seamless” grace and strength in all of us if we take a glimpse inward.\u00a0 By honing our yoga skills through regular practice, we can better tap into that … source… source of joy, source of fearlessness, source of vitality.<\/p>\n

To share the above is what gives me … joy:)\u00a0 Will just have to go back to that “beginner’s mind”, each day, renewed.<\/p>\n
