我們所了解的現實生活，或所謂「我的生活」，往往是毫無意識地透過感官收集來的資料、從外在累積的資訊，或者是從家庭植入和社會支配的價值觀。多年來，我們如此生活著，漸漸地，我們變成一個自己都不認識的人！
透過生活，我們建立了一個自我形象——「我」。對於圍繞在「我」身邊的經驗和物質，我們焦慮地設法擁有，並稱之為「我的生活」。
依據其他人對自己的觀點，並且試著符合他人的期望，如此的生活是非常累人的。
若想不再依據其他人的觀點而活，並有意識地創造自己獨特的經驗，需要極大的勇氣、耐性和毅力。
這才是「靈性」真正的意涵。「靈性」將重寫我們生命的故事，聽起來的確很嚇人。
瑜伽行者崇拜太陽。太陽的光芒從自身而來，自給自足。這就是為什麼太陽在瑜珈傳統中．代表「絕對真實」。
鼓起勇氣，敢於注視心中的太陽。讓其赤焰燒盡不是你的一切，讓其光明引領你走出無明的黑暗，成為被你生活掩藏住的光。
The foundation of reality that we understand as ‘my life’ has been unconsciously built using data collected from the senses, information gathered from external sources, beliefs planted by family and dictates of the society. After years of living we've ended up becoming someone we ourselves have no clue about !
.
Through life we have managed to construct a self-concept - the “I”. We anxiously go about staking claim to experiences and objects that revolve around this 'I' calling it ‘my’ life.
.
Living a life that is purely based on other’s opinion of us and trying to live up to their ideas of reality is an exhausting task.
.
It takes tremendous grit, patience and endurance to move away from a life based on other's opinion and go through a conscious process of creating life out of our own unique experience.
.
This is the real meaning of spirituality – it rewrites our whole life story and this can be very scary.
.
As Yogis we worship the Sun. The Sun shines in its own light. It has its own fuel and shines in its own glory. It is self-effulgent and self-sufficient. This is why the Sun is a symbol of Absolute Truth in Yogic tradition.
.
Gather courage and dare to look at the inner Sun. Let its fire burn away all that you are not. Let its light lead you out of the darkness of ignorance. Be the Light that you have hidden away from all your life..
