Soft Vinyasa: Grounded in Joy. 8.16.12

We used the grounding feeling tone of the legs to help establish a home in the heart, and through breath, movement, mantra, and poetry, found more room for what we see.

Hafiz Tripping Over Joy
What is the difference
Between your experience of Existence
And that of a saint?

The saint knows

That the spiritual path
Is a sublime chess game with God
And that the Beloved
Has just made a Fantastic Move

That the saint is now continually

Tripping over Joy
And bursting out in Laughter
And saying, "I Surrender!"

Whereas, my dear,

I am afraid you still think
You have a thousand serious moves.

Namaste
