VENUSfrequency YOGA edition 10 MAY 2024 | Sutra 3.54 | our own true nature

WE ARE YOGA and may we continue to create the new built on the grounds of the YAMAS & NIYAMAs

This clarity of knowing each moment as it comes (mentioned in the previous sutra) creates the ability in the yogi to distinguish between similar objects, regardless of lineage, characteristics or position in space. SUTRA 3.54 

The similar objects mentioned in this sutra are the Self, or purusa, and the individual person, viewed here as prakriti. The exalted intelligence obtained within the previous sutra creates the possibility of truly understanding the difference between the soul that remains throughout different lifetimes, and the body/intelligence/personality that is currently being experienced.

We get stuck believing that our individual selves are all that is real and true. Patanjali offers us the possibility of knowing and becoming free of that trap.

The success described in this sutra comes within the knowledge of pure, changeless being and the transformations that take place through the outer layers of our individual existence. Transformations that Patanjali has described as lineage, or past lives, individual characteristics or our places within our current lives.

And yes we are creating the new, but with that but with that A PAST LIFE this carefullycurated playlist of worldcontemporary tunes has. I dug it out of the archives of 2019 when MAY 10 was also a Friday, so its kind of a DÉJÀ VU… a VENUSfrequency playlist of 5 years ago… oh does time fly and it is always still precious hang out time together, as we learned last week, time is an illusion What we perceive as precious is not time but the one point that is out of time: the Now.

Can you feel a timeless aspect of you?
Whatever the experience, it cannot be put into words accurately, but you may be able to feel it.
Can you stay with that and be curious about what happens when you focus fully on each moment and the changes that are taking place?
Can this practice offer you a useful vantage point for living your life?

Just as a reminder these Were the questions posed with last episodes sutra… and these are the musical contributors of todays carefully curated playlist of timelessnesses in the here and now….
