Study - Step 10 to Happiness.

30/11/2012

Study - well, if that doesn't sound ominous, odious, and dreary... Not so, not so - in reality, I'm talking about 'study' as when we find a 'yoga' with something. For instance, when we find an activity or pursuit that really engages and delights us, it's no burden at all to get into it and study up and learn more about it. We seek out those others that are 'good' at it or can help us; we might read up, ask around or work on improving skills. All of this, I suggest, is study.

Study, like watch a flower bloom. Study, like read about a passion. Study, as in observe yourself and your behaviors to learn more about your own subconscious and how that might alter your perceptions. Dive deep, go into something wholeheartedly, devote time and attention. There are so many ways to study.

In the 8 limbs of yoga, we are told that Svadhyaya - study - is one of the imperatives. While there are many ways to translate or interpret the meaning of 'study' in this word, it's most often considered that studying sacred texts will help us study ourselves, as all is allegorical, metaphorical and simply about the true nature of consciousness. By broadening our perspective, we can begin to see the unity.

“It is useful to study different traditions in order to be free of attachment to any one way of expressing what is beyond expression.”
― Ravi Ravindra, The Wisdom of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras: A New Translation and Guide by Ravi Ravindra

Svādhyāya is one of the three key elements in the Kriya (practice, technique) of Yogah (yoga) as defined in the Yoga Sutras. In fact, it opens the second chapter and then later Patanjali mentions Svādhyāya a second time as one of the five Niyamas (observances), along with Sauca (purity), Santosha (contentment), Tapas (zeal, austerity), and Ishvari-Pranadhana (surrender).

I love Sutra 2.1 - I use it on my bio page, because to me, it defines the practice - not of asana, but of yoga. And, while I'm not recovering, it's a basically the Serenity Prayer -

tapah svadhyaya ishvara-pranidhana kriya-yogah (PYS 2:1)

let me have 'Tapah' (the creative force to make change), the Ishavari-Pranadhana (the ability to surrender to that which is greater) and the Svadhyaya (the wisdom to know the difference, what is called for)... this is the Kriya (practice) of Yoga.

I'm not suggesting you have to dive into the Sutras, read the Gita, go back to the Bible, or any sacred text. You could study yourself with Thoreau, with Schopenhauer, with Neitzche, with Shakespeare, with David Sedaris. Really, you can study through reading, or through experience.

I've spent a lot of time reading sacred texts, from all cultures. I'm emboldened by the original purity of the intention and message and how universal they are; I am dismayed by how much culture and time and imposition was added to the those texts and now they have been perverted through poor usage and other agendas. I thought the following quote was right on track...

“Spiritual literature can be a great aid to an aspirant, or it can be a terrible hindrance. If it is used to inspire practice, motivate compassion, and nourish devotion, it serves a very valuable purpose.

If scriptural study is used for mere intellectual understanding, for pride of accomplishment, or as a substitute for actual practice, then one is taking in too much mental food, which is sure to result in intellectual indigestion.”
― Prem Prakash, The Yoga of Spiritual Devotion A Modern Translation of the Narada Bhakti Sutras

This is why I prefer and suggest the study be experiential... that the classroom be the Self, that the Teacher or object of our study is the yoga or the mindfulness or the seva or whatever brings you into relationship with self and Self. Perhaps if you re-appropriated the word "study" out of the academic world, out of tests and proficiencies and all-nighters and simple regurgitation of facts, we could thrive in learning.

I like language, so let me end on that note - study, the etymology. If you trace most language groups back, they got to a common ancestor that is called P.I.E., or Proto-Indo European. This is the 'base language' for hundreds of language groups, which include Sanskrit and Latin and Greek. So, that's why we see cognates in Sanskrit to English. Sukha - Sucrose. Pada - Pedestrian, Podiatrist. Mukha - Mug as in Mugshot...

So, "study" comes down from a PIE root *(s)teu- which means "to push, stick, knock, beat". As it arrived into the Latin, it took on the connotation of "being diligent, moving forward, applying attention". By the 1300s, CE, it had the specific meaning of "application of the mind to the acquisition of knowledge".

But just keep it simple - push for it, stick to it, knock the disinformation and your preconceptions out of the way, beat aside falseness and even the temptation to take easy answers over truthful ones. Be diligent, move forward, apply attention. Apply your mind and efforts towards the acquisition of knowledge, and then thrive through that wisdom.

And, if you do all of that on a skateboard, or on the XBox, or by collecting Star Wars figures, then dive in, go deep, learn more. Study, be a student, learn to love learning and you will learn love and happiness.

Be well, give thanks and praise - last day here in Dallas assisting my fabulous teacher and mentor and friend, Seane.

Looking forward to getting back to the ATX and a fun weekend. Next installment coming up is, Step 11 - Aspire to Inspire!

When the Ego Erupts, Perhaps Eagle-Armed Eradication is in Order!

5/9/2012

0 Comments

Well, it's bound to happen to anyone - but today I got really triggered. Seems like something that I did, by the specs and to the guidelines, and in time according to the "thanks, looks great!" email we got as confirmation, well, it actually never happened.

A big issue is that I've communicated with the other party a few times in the meantime, and they never bothered to say anything about it, even though I THANKED THEM for doing the work. Today would've been the outcome, the proof in the pudding, and guess what - no pudding, no oven, no mixing bowl - nothing... and, the answer I got was "oops, really busy, sorry we didn't run it - didn't I tell you?"

No, you didn't. And, so, I do my yoga, I teach the practice, I read the books and learn the lessons and right now I'm still so pissed that anything I say to that person will hurt, will cause anger and distance. I'll violate my own Prime Directive, the first Yama - "Don't Be Mean!". That's not ok, so time for skillz, mad skillz as Napoleon says.

Therefore, in the spirit of the practice and the teachings, let me offer you, from the Kundalini tradition, the Kriya known as Ego Eradicator - what to do when "I" and "ME" is all you can say, and it's all sooo personal!

First, you'll need to be able to do "Breath of Fire" - too tedious for me to teach in the little window with just open-mic sound, so check this link for a really good description of "Agniprana", a.k.a. breath of fire! She does a good job of teaching, of getting the physiology set, and gives some nice background.

For Ego Eradicator, begin by sitting on the heels , or with your legs nicely and comfortably crossed... sukhasana is fine.

You'll want to sit up nice and tall, apply a minimal engagement of the pelvic floor and the lower abdominal wall (mula- and uddyanabandha) to support the lumbar spine and keep the ribs floating above the belly.

Lift the arms up to 60 degrees, like you are making a big Y-shape. Then draw the shoulder blades down over the back of the ribs, so the shoulders are away from the ears; another way to think of this is to make your armpits more narrow to the front. This will keep your arms supported by your skeletal body, not so much muscular energy involved and a more comfortable and grounded experience.

Curl the fingertips onto the pads of the palms right at the base of the fingers, with the thumbs stretched outward, like hitch-hikers. The thumbs aim at each other above the head. These are the "Eagle Arms!!"

Begin the breath of fire - establish a rhythm, and for your first attempt, just go for 45 seconds to a minute. You can build up to 3 minutes over time. Breath of fire counts as one breath, but if you loose it, just breathe normally and then resume.

To end, inhale deeply, and then hold the breath. Lift up from the pelvic floor and concentrate on the spot one feet above the head as you slowly bring your thumbs to touch overhead. Open the fingers out, exhale and allow the arms to go gently down by your sides.

Some additional things to consider as you are working the kriya:

Do not bend the elbows - keep your arms straight and powerful.
Stretch up from the shoulders - root the shoulderblades down and reach outward.
Do not arch the spine - keep yourself grounded and tall in the seat.
Check the angle of the arms; it is a common mistake to have the arms lower than 60 degrees.

This is a great one, and if you can find a quiet spot and one to three minutes of your time, you can change your attitude immensely, almost immediately. When you've got a big case of the ego, the hurt feelings, the 'what about me' - get your Eagle Arms going and Breathe that Fire - Eradicate the Emergent Ego and get back on track!

Here's a quick video below of me giving you a demo - check it, try it, let me know what you think!

Give thanks and praise!

A Spiritual Practice That Seeks to Eliminate Separation - "Don't Be Mean".

4/9/2012

1 Comment

apostrophe-hell awaits these judgy fudgers!

To be fair, let me start by saying that I've been feeling pretty emotional this week, and I've got a dog in this hunt, so I'm probably more 'charged' than I should be.

Emotional, weird, but yes - perhaps the blue moon, pulling it all up. I've cried time after time while watching SYTYCD (not a guilty confession, true emotional catharsis)... but, I also cried a bunch in classes at Wanderlust, and few times since then; like watching the really old German Shepherd from down the block, literally stumbling home on his walk, because both his back hips have given out. - insert heart-break and a vision of me carrying old dogs who's legs don't work anymore around... I'm just in that mood where anything tips me.

Add into that a few random and mostly mean-spirited discussions and postings on the Yamas and Niyamas that have come up recently (really, yogis, have opinions, but get off the 'everything is shit and you're a phony' asana-box). I have lots of opinions, so do others, sometimes makes it quite interesting and sometimes it just adds confusion to a simple message.

Thus, someone blogged this week about how little they like the fact that some of the Yamas and Niyamas are formed as negatives, e.g. ahimsa is 'non-harming', and they'd like to restate them in the positive. Well, Sanskrit is a robust and varied language, and if Patanjali wanted them to be phrased as positives, he could've and would've.

I think we do ancient texts disservices in both ways - we often take them too literally; remember, these were aphorisms written in a largely agrarian and serfish society, of another culture anywhere from half a millennia to 3 or 4 millenia before the common era.

Kinda like being really fundamentalist in interpretation of the Old Testament Leviticus - much more about how to survive as a tribal-desert-nomad or herder in the Levant, prior to the common era, but not much to take day to day advice from at this point. The deepest moral lessons remain - be kind, be loving - the day to day proscriptions must cease!

The other error we make is the opposite, but just as egregious... we'd like to update the sentiments to modern sensibilities. Somewhere around the 70s, the 'feel-good generation' evolving into the 'me generation', we became enamored with positivity, even false, forced or faked. We ended up with '15th place ribbons', because no one is a loser. We got to say 'differently-abled' versus disabled, because that is so negative! Next thing you know, dead people are 'collateral damage', fired folks are 'downsized' and no one is a loser, even when they've lost.

When did we get so afraid of reality? Really folks, the message is DON'T, as in DO NOT, as in a statement of how not to act. That's viable, and frankly, how we learn. No one says "prefer to touch the cool burner on the stove, Starflower" as her hand approaches the scorcher - you say "Don't" and then say why not. Can't we leave that language as is and understand we are being warned, not cajoled?

Further, where does Patanjali say not to eat meat?? Quote the sutra, I bid ye... I'm not arguing for or against any diet; I'm speaking against folks being so judgmental, verbally and mentally violent and harmful to others about a personal dietary choice.

I was with some yogis, at a sushi restaurant, when another person at the table said "well, I guess I'm the only real yogi, since I'll be having the veggie roll..." I really appreciated the polite, yet ready answer from a fellow at the table, which was "It says in the sutras clearly not to be violent, but nowhere to not eat meat. First charge, 'don't be harmful' - that applies to people, dinner guests and waitresses - now, what we're you going to order?"

Or, we can go with what one of my favorite teachers goes with - and he studied directly with Desikachar, so I take that provenance... "Ahimsa - how about 'don't be mean'" and we leave it at that. Judgmental is mean, dictatorial is mean, spending time believing folks are more or less enlightened then you or others is mean to you, and to others. Be nice to you, stop being so judgy!!

There, I've let it go - I'm not sure for the better as I'm sure I've sounded judgy and violated my own admonishment! Always being a student, while taking the seat of the teacher - interesting to play this game with one's self.

Just trying to offer the opportunity to see things as they are, and for us all to start treating each other a little more nicely... Stop looking for blame, it's too easy to find.

Stop looking for separation, it exists... look for opportunities to be nice, to NOT not be mean - take the time, listen, share, thank and praise. When in doubt, start any conversation with one of the following four (or all of them!):

Thank you, I love you, I'm sorry, Please forgive me...

Give thanks and praise!

Today I Met Warrior Four...

23/8/2012

0 Comments

Having an excellent time here at Wanderlust, BC - Whistler is beautiful, and rainy, and Canadian, and just sweet!

I'm here with my buddy, Damion; it is his birthday today, and mine tomorrow (and we did meet someone whose is on Sunday, so if we can find a Saturday - it's rush-week). We've been celebrating, and goofing on it.

I'm not unhappy to report that even though we tried it at every opportunity today, from Starbucks to lunch to beers to LuLuLemon, no one gave him anything or any discounts today!! And nothing will prevent me from asking all of the same places tomorrow! It's just been fun and frivolous, and I should admit, we've actually received lovely well wishes, just no free drinks!

Started the day with an incredible experience - I feel like calling it a class would diminish it. Janet Stone, from San Fran - she really has that authentic connection and is dedicated to being a conduit to the teachings and to joy. She opened us up with a lovely storytelling through the Pantheon of the Gods and Goddesses to tell the story of Durga Ma. She was so eloquent and real, and the story was flowing, and in the course of telling it, the revelations each presented.

I don't want to mangle it, but what I took from it still resonates with me, half a day later. Durga had every weapon in the book, all of the boons and skills to defeat the demon that had been devastating creation. All else and all others had failed, so she shows up, eight-armed and armed in all eight, and proceeds to use each one. And just as each weapon is finally about to vanquish the demon, he rallies and destroys that weapon.

Finally, she has exhausted all of the weapons and skills and boons. It appears to be done. But, in that most unlikely of truths that those on the mat discern, the end is always the beginning. Durga finally defeats the demon by using the sole of her foot - the most vulnerable and least protected part of the body. Her greatest vulnerability is the key to the battle.

The lesson for me is that pushing through, fighting it, looking to check it off the list or proclaim 'nailed it!' is never the end... in fact, just when we think we've persevered enough and fought it out, that approach, or tactic or method no longer works. When we exhaust all of those options, and are finally faced with surrender - exposing our vulnerability - that is when we can overcome!

I really mangled that, I hope you get the gist!!

As for the title of this blogpost? Well, I can't recall who Janet quoted, but she shared that one of her teachers always called Balasana or Child's pose "Warrior Four"... it takes the most accomplished, most secure, most vulnerable and the most readily surrendered Warrior to know when to quit, and just back out of the battle. Love it, as I'm the first one to head into Bala when the breath gets ragged!

Anyway, I feel like I'm rambling, but suffice it to say that the day was great, Janet Stone is a phenomenal teacher and I was a willing student. Happy birthday to Mandy E and Sanjay S - those are my birthday buddies celebrating their days tomorrow with me!

Give thanks and praise - and while I have your attention, would you consider offering a donation to let me be your advocate? My Global Seva Challenge is in effect and I need your help to do the work!

Are You Prepared For the Prick?

21/8/2012

0 Comments

The other day, I was video-posting, and I got on the riff of vinyasa, sequencing, the mala and it's relationship to the Catholic Rosary.

To consolidate it, if you didn't catch it... the mala is a devotional tool. It is similar to the Rosary, as there are 108 beads, arranged in a strand, and are an opportunity to create devotional space for the meditator, the chanter, the prayer.

The Rosary is named after the latin word, Rosarium, which means 'rose garden' or 'garland of roses'. Thus, in the way that a garden is carefully, artfully and symettrically laid out and pleasing to the senses, with many little stops along the way for reflection, so is the rosary, so is the mala.

When doing the chants, or the mantras, or the prayers, each bead is one individual moment. They are connected on the strand, and the whole makes more than the individual - yet each individual bead, each moment, each reflection, is still greater than the whole.

That's the beauty of what we call 'jaap' - or 'repetition of devotion', moving through the same actions, over and over, to create devotional space.

If we think of it as a garden, and the mala or rosary the path, then maybe the message is that each bead is a rose, and our most devotional action is to give that rose our full attention. To, as we coin the phrase - to stop and smell the roses.

Sounds glorious, doesn't it? But, the garden is full of hazards and hidden nuisances... You don't get a strong plant without fertile dirt... and dirt full of crawling and creeping creatures. You can't enjoy the dappled sunlight without the shade, and most every blossom on the rose bush has a thorn.

Are you prepared for the prick? As you deeply inhale, dive down into the bloom, sip in the fragrance as you stop and smell that rose - what's to come of it when your lip finds the thorn? Will you still be able to see the beauty and the necessity of both the bloom and the barb?

Don't stop smelling roses, keep on the devotional stroll and take the time to notice. Walk barefoot and let your toes wiggle in the cool and damp earth. Go boldly in the sun and the shade; notice the blooms and the boons.

Smell the roses, even if that means getting dirty and a prick here and there - and, give thanks and praise!

Resonance - How Long Does the Unstruck Chord Sound?

18/7/2012

0 Comments

Bear with me, this is going to get esoteric, hit physics and then run through acoustics, but I hope you will resonate with it...

Resonance... "we are with or come back to the sounding" - That sounding, that quality, in the yogic texts is known as the 'naad', or the 'shabd'.

"Naad" translates as 'the cosmic sound' or 'vibrations of the cosmos'. The sound of the Cosmos can resonate within if one tunes into this energy, or as in acoustics... the unstruck string can resonate to the direct vibration or harmonic of another string in action.

"Shabd" is a little more esoteric even, although at its most superficial, it means 'sound'. Shabd employs the Naad (totally balanced universal sound) to remove the constrictions and distortions of the ego. In lay terms, the vibration is 'underneath' and at the source of the sound.

The root structure of the word gives a deeper definition; the Shabd transforms the practitioner by removing the barriers erected by the needs of the ego. Shabd comes from Sha- and –bd. Sha- means the expression of the ego, the attachments we identify with. -Bd means to cut out/off or to eradicate. The root meaning of Sha-bd is 'that which cuts the ego'. It is not just any sound; it is not just a sound of wisdom or a song of truth. It is a sound that cuts away the ego, which obstructs the truth from you.

Now, back to resonance... first, the simple physics then back to the acoustics. Resonance occurs when a system is able to store and easily transfer energy between two or more different storage modes - such as kinetic energy (if you're going yogic terminology, think of this as the Vayus - energy in motion) and potential energy (think of this as Shakti - all potential energy).

One familiar example is a playground swing, which acts as a pendulum. Pushing a person in a swing in time with the natural interval of the swing (its resonant frequency) will make the swing go higher and higher (maximum amplitude), while attempts to push the swing at a faster or slower tempo will result in smaller arcs.

This is because the energy the swing absorbs is maximized when the pushes are 'in phase' (resonate) with the swing's oscillations, while some of the swing's energy is actually extracted by the opposing force of the pushes when they are not (Inertia, or in yogic terms, one definition of Karma - unbidden work to be done).

Bear with me, we're getting somewhere. We've got a deep, underlying force we represent as sound or vibration brought into sound.... from the Big Bang, perhaps the ongoing Long Buzz. In our practice, we can use this deeper vibration to come into alignment - as in resonate - or to find higher vibrations and frequencies - harmonics. When we feel the resonance, when our unstruck strings simply choose to sing along because of the strength of the tone, then we are in union - one form of yoga.

Acoustic resonance is an important consideration for instrument builders. So should be the same consideration for those who practice asana. Most acoustic instruments use resonators, such as the strings and body of a violin (which mimics in shape and form the nude body of a woman - all stringed instruments started as mimics of the lover's body), the length of tube in a flute (or the length of the Sushumna, our central nadi and internal flow), or the shape of a drum membrane (the resilient and dynamic diaphragm).

Resonance occurs when a system is able to store and easily transfer energy between two or more different storage modes such as kinetic energy (vayus - movement of energy like wind) and potential energy (shakti - all potential energy) which can overcome the inertia (karma - work to be done).

Resonance occurs widely in nature, and is exploited in many man-made devices. It is the mechanism by which virtually all sinusoidal waves (bio-rhythms, lunar and solar cycles, menses and ovulation - all cycles that we measure) and vibrations are generated. Many sounds we hear, such as when hard objects of metal, glass, or wood are struck, are caused by brief resonant vibrations in the object.

The internal noise that normally overwhelms the mind (citta vritti) can be silenced and one can enjoy and hear the "anhad Naad" (unheard sound); this is sound of the cosmos within the mind. It is not to be confused with external vibrations - Naad is vibration within the mind.

And, unstruck, I say again - the sound doesn't start or diminish. It emanates and exists. Our fourth chakra, at the heart-center, uniting the upper triangle with the lower triangle, is known as Anahata - or 'the unstruck sound'. Use your heart, stop listening and start hearing.

Tune in, drop down, go deep, stay well. Give thanks and praise!

anubhutavisaya-asampramosah-smrtih (PYS I.11)

27/2/2012

0 Comments

With all respect to Mr. Desikachar and his student, my teacher, Chase Bossart - contemplation on smrtayah (memory).

As I indicated in my prior post, I had the opportunity to study the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali all weekend - the study was in the classic form of learning the Invocation as well as the first dozen Sutras through call and response and repitition. Then, we delved into the concepts and the philosophy.

The persistence of memory... I, like many I suppose, share that concern of 'reacting from memory' rather than 'acting from insight or clarity' of the present situation. We all 'time-travel'. For instance, when we fall into the trap of arguing, we are rarely emotionally involved in the actual issue at hand, but rather time-traveling to all of our prior conflicts, arguments, disappointments and unresolved anger with the 'other' or 'others'. It's a rare person who can actually stop that momentum and pose the question "What are we really talking about here?".

And, when we are uncertain, or in conflict, often the voices from the 'committtee in our head' are those from the past; again, the memory, which taints our experience of the present by casting it's pall over the action and flavoring the reaction.

So, is our goal to ablute the memory, to completely forget who we were before we became yogis?? No, not at all, and Sutra I.11 tells us we cannot erase or eradicate the memory. But we can 'overcome it' and tame it, or yoke that wild beast.

First, the Sutra: it's primarily definitional, it tells us what "smrtayah" is - one of the five 'vrrtis' or states of perception, as listed in I.6. It is our collection of life experiences, or memory. Of "smrtayah," or "smrtih" as it conjugates, Patanjali says: "anubhutavisaya-asampramosah-smrtih". Let's break it down:

anubhutavisaya: anu = following, or to follow; bhuta = a thing or a being; visaya = an object. We construct this to mean 'perceptions'. Let's say "following the existence of an object or thing" or perhaps more clearly "the record of our experience" (something that is evident to us, something we perceive).

asampramosah: a = not; sam = completely; pramosah = can be thieved, or stolen, or taken. Shall we say, "completely unthievable" or "untakeable". That means we cannot have our memories taken from us (short of head or associated trauma), but rather in the course of life our experiences are ours and we carry them as records.

smrtih: the word to be defined, and by such preceding statements, "The Completely Untheivable Record of our Experiences is What we Call Smrtih or Memory." Thus, Patanjali sets the stage and clearly says, we cannot give them away, they can't even be stolen; therefore, we must own and recognize our memory.

Memory is one of the 'false perceptions' when it comes to using our yoga to seek clarity - our rememberances, both of sweetness and sorrow, come into our perceptions on the record of memory, and by my example above, we might find ourselves having that fight, just one more time - "I mean, it's only been like five years now, how would I ever get over it..." We might have one statement from our family time-travel us back to our youth, or a time of diminished self-esteem, of shame or a time of isolation. I think this is called 'going home for the holidays' for some!

So, we can't get rid of memory, and if they are entirely unthievable, then they are ours for a reason. We don't want to forget the past, but rather to know what our true perceptions are. So, memory is great when it comes to what kinds of mushrooms to eat or not eat... memory is a trickster when it comes to remaining present to ourselves and our actions, and not coming from a place of projection and reaction!

Tough work, eh yogis?? Well, the good news is that with clarity comes the ability to know when the "smrtih" is talking and what it is saying. And, for yogis, the place we find clarity is through focus. The place we find focus is in our practice - asana, pranayama, meditation, etc. So, if you want to address the past so you don't keep bringing it into the present and stalling the glory of the future, hit your practice.

It wasn't because P Jois had limited English, though he did; it's not because he taught Asthanga Vinyasa, because he did - but the reason he would answer universally with 'Practice!' was that this is where focus presents, and focus creates clarity and clarity keeps us present, even against the attractive trap of the mind, memory, and time-travel.

Thus, if you've got something troubling you - practice. If you are repeating patterns and poor or unfulfilling relationships - practice. When you need to know what to do - practice.

"Practice and all is coming." What is all? All is clarity. The rest is you using that to make better and better choices and to stay present to yourself and with everyone else.

We have an elegant, complete, philosophical science that enables us not to become saints and liberate as the goal, but rather to live a more present, clear and purpose-filled life as the human creatures we are. Here, at this time, in this world, with these obstacles and tools. Will we achieve it? Perhaps, if we are willing to fail and then start over and learn and get clear - that's why they call it "Practice".

Give thanks and praise - everyone has memories, few are given tools to tame them!
