sah tu dirgha kala nairantaira satkara asevitah dridha bhumih
It is only when the correct practice if followed for a long time ( dirgha ) , without break or interruption ( nairantaira ) , and with the quality and positive attitude and eagerness( devoted - asevitah , grounded , bhumihi ) that it can be succeed.
I always thought that i can never do my own practice as my mind is always wondering and i do not have the patient to do it all alone by myself. But , things start to change recently when i try to live with yoga and apply the sutra into my life. My self practice has brought my joy and i am doing my own practice at my own space everyday. From 1 round of sun salutation to 3 rounds and follows by other asanas.
I tried not to miss my yoga practice everyday. My focus are better now , and i am totally devoted with positive and happy attitude with my practice, without interruption and doing it for a long time :)
1.15 Drista anushravika vishaya vitrishnasya vashikara sanjna vairagyam
( My favorite sutra )
We can only enjoy an experience when we are not attached to it and free from desire. For everything that we do in life , if we are free from desire and without any attachment , we will enjoy the experience more.
Apart from applying it to my yoga practice, this sutra has something to say to my personal life as i am living this sutra eveyday now .
I was once afraid of losing my love one and always desire to have him by my side so much. The feeling of afraid loosing him has made me unhappy and carrying lots of burden on my shoulder and emotionally unstable.Instead of enjoying the moments that we have now , i was worried about the future when one day i will need to let him go and loosing him for good.Till a day that i understand in order to be happy , i will need to let go my desire of having him and enjoy the moment that we are having now. I feel so much relieve after the desire is gone as there is no more attachment on to it . I am enjoying the experience now with a free mind and not even worried of loosing him one day if we have to. Only god's know what is better for us. Even if i know i might loose him one day , that does not hurt me so much now. Loving someone is not about having him for good. It is all about what we have been through together with good memories in this life time.
If it's meant to be, it's meant to be.
From today, let go your desire and enjoy the experience you are having.Life is so much happier when u keep it simple :)
