Thursday, Sep 01, 2016 A Message from Marydale – September 2016

Greetings!

How beautifully our bougainvillea has withstood the heat of summer as it stands majestically framing Param Yoga’s back door, beckoning you to enter into a world of sacred peace, Presence and joy. Day after day, the studio stands as a refuge for those who are desirous of deepening their yogic path through a persistent and consistent practice drenched in love.

September arrives as the precursor to the final quarter of 2016, once again offering us the opportunity for completion in all areas of our lives in preparation to move forward with fresh resolve when October births. Taking advantage of this window of completion with mindfulness and the sincere desire to “put your house in order” (your physical house and your Spiritual house), you will be making room in your life for positive growth and needed change.

We often speak about the importance of non-attachment to everything in your world, but upon closer introspection you may discover that your world is loaded with “stuff” that needs to be purged…but that you are attached to for one reason or another. Stand back, be honest with yourself and, throughout the month of September, allow yourself to let go of overload in your world, whether it shows up in your surroundings, your body, mind, emotions, relationships, finances – wherever. Free yourself up from the inside out and make room for love, Light and great joy to flow into you and through you.

In Service,

“We catch hold of the past and get stuck. We cannot proceed. Along the journey of life, memory is the greatest bondage: what we should remember, we forget, and what we should forget, we always remember. Can we not live intelligently and move forward?” – Paramahamsa Prajnanananda
