The practice of yoga is to nirōdhaḥ the chitta vritti, to stop the mental vortexes–or at least stop being so caught up in them. Through this constant practice, you separate yourself from, then gradually shed, and finally cease to be your ego.

No amount of longing or nostalgia can bring back the past and no amount of grief, regret, guilt, shame, or anger can change it, but, if you’re like most people, you spend a lot of time in the realm of the woulda-coulda-shouldas, ruminating on everything you’ve done and all that's been done to you.

Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras - Samadhi Pada - Cosmic Consciousness 1.10 When you sleep, you dream, but not the whole time. After a deep sleep, you have a notion of having rested in nothingness.

Listen for the infinite universal sound to hear insights from your inner voice. Within you are sacred verses, flowers offered to Oneness.

The only misconceptions that are important in yoga are mistaking the temporary for the eternal, the impure for the pure, pain for pleasure, and the ego for the Self.

Where can we find evidence of Oneness?

There are five kinds of mental vortexes...

To your ego, some of your mental vortexes are problematic, others are not. They’re unproblematic if you’re content. They’re problematic if you’re bothered.

From the perspective of the practice of yoga, whether they’re problematic depends on if they keep you bound to your ego identity...

You are a tiny particle of divine consciousness and it is through your individual consciousness that the loving awareness of the universe observes itself. But, there’s a paradox in this...

Be who you really are.

Stop being so caught up in cyclones your ego stirs up.

There’s no time like the present to discover what unites every form of separation, down to the tiniest atomic particle, in Oneness. This is the philosophy and practice of Yoga.
