VENUSfrequency YOGA edition 22 NOV 2024 | sutra 4.18 | consciousness

22.11.2024 „As the moon shines not by its own light but reflects the radiance of the sun, so too does the mind reflect the eternal light of Consciousness. The light is one; its reflections are many.“ A universal WISDOM echoing the teachings of texts like the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad (4.3.6) and Katha Upanishad (2.2.15), where the interplay between the inner self (Atman) and the ultimate source of all existence (Brahman) is likened to light and its reflections. It emphasizes that all appearances of individuality or variation arise from a singular, unchanging source. We are diving into Yoga Sutra 4.18—a sutra that invites us to reflect deeply on the nature of Consciousness, the essence of aliveness that flows through all of existence, and the role of our awareness in perceiving it. It’s about understanding the distinction between the unchanging witness that we truly are and the ever-changing world of experiences we navigate every day. Have you ever wondered why some days you wake up energized and alive, while other days, everything feels heavy and out of balance? What if I told you that beneath those shifting feelings, there’s a steady, constant source of aliveness that never wavers? That’s what today’s sutra reveals—this beautiful idea that Consciousness, the eternal witness, pervades all that is, while remaining untouched by the ups and downs of life. This Episode, will dive into deeper into the meaning of sutra 4.18, connecting it to the wisdom of the Upanishads, with timeless metaphors that speak straight to the heart. And then look at how this philosophy can play out in real life, getting up close and personal in reflections and stories that make this ancient teaching feel alive and relatable, connecting to cutting edge theroies in physics and neurosience if we still got that time, so settle in. This hour is all ybout you and your journey into the deeper dimensions of what it means to be alive. Let’s begin by opening the door to Yoga Sutra 4.18 and what it can teach us about the eternal witness within each of us.
