The Immensity of Yourself

In Yoga on April 22, 2010 at 11:35 am

Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

This morning I went to the 9:30am yoga class that I have never attended since I’m always at work. It’s so nice to start the day with yoga but I was entirely too lazy to get up for the 6am classes in order to get to work on time. So here I was at morning yoga, apparently very eager and entirely too early…

I like to kill time at the studio by reading the many books that the teachers read from at the end of class. Meditation would probably be a wiser, more yogic use of my time, but I am not all that wise. So today I grabbed a book I hadn’t seen before–A Guide for the Advanced Soul. It’s a collection of inspiring sayings from some pretty inspiring people. This one jumped out at me today:

“How much longer will you go on letting your energy sleep? How much longer are you going to stay oblivious of the immensity of yourself? Don’t lose time in  conflict; lose no time in doubt–time can never be recovered and if you miss an opportunity it may take many lives before another comes your way again.”

- Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, A Cup of Tea

  1. I keep returning to this post, because that quote lifts me like no other. Thank you for sharing, seriously.

    Thank the sweet dog for the intarwebs; human connection rocks :)
