"...When I arrived back home from India this year I felt myself yearning for
what lacked in my childhood. Strange, I know. I had no idea it was
there so deep within my subconscious, because when I was young I knew
how to put on the face that all was fine, and essentially I thought is
was, never minding the deep sadness that laid beneath the surface. A
survival mechanism that held me together in times of need but in the end
can weigh heavily if never fully accessing the gravity of what needed
to be eventually felt. The defense mechanisms had their purpose and the
challenge is to put them away when growth is necessary. This yoga stuff
really works. It's not always about bliss and peace of mind, its also
about keeping watch over what arises within because what we are really
doing is undoing."
wise words.
