Motto:
yogash chitta vritti nirodhah.
Control your mind and so, find yourself. - Yoga Sutra - Patanjali



Seems to be easy, yet many (almost all) fail.
We like elaborate things, we like to see us as center of Universe, we like to ... Always we, or I.
What this old man tell us is that it is at our grasp to do it.





Those days, I noticed an Arab calling us zombies.
Sure he never visited Transylvania, my homeland.



Should we be “patriotic” in this endeavor ? Or should we try to find our love ? Or, perhaps, the wealth and prosperity ?
None of this is forbidden.
Only thing that we must pursuit is this ... small assignment. To control our mind.

Sad part is that we could not achieve it.

Ok, ok. And then what ? What if we, by great effort and “tapasya” and “swadhyana” and “ishvara pranidhana” ?
All they say is that we could became humans ?

Well, but are we not already ?

We just need some food, some fun, and lot of emotions to pull up adrenaline in us. So we feel we live.
Don’t you feel great when we defeat some “empire” and regain our lands ?
Those teachings are useful just to pass over the obstacles in our path.

We could use “pranayama” to improve our health, when we are seek. Or we could do some “dhyana” when we must study something.
Nothing more. In rest we need our daily “soma”, because Universe start and end with us. We are the true Deva’s.

Perhaps, when we get old and ill, wich is not the case now, we will think again, but no hurry.

Then, we could notice this old Patanjali, that claim Humans could achieve “vibhuti”. And a question arise, eventually, in our minds.
Why did we not have those ? Oh dear God, what we could do with them.

So, quiet but unforgiving, time pass.
We don’t mind of it and, all of a sudden, we understand we aimed wrong (eventually).

Pff, it is too late now. So we go further, as we are used to.
We grip further to our passions and addictions and we ignore the rest.
This is what became our world, our life.
So it has to be.

Now, my friends, I used so much “special” terms, convinced that you (and you alone) will understand them. That for, this article is dedicated only to you, and to those of you that ... could and would perceive it.
See, you could teach a blind man about colors, but it is much harder to do that, comparing to one that could see.

With all my love.
