Sweet Vinyasa: Reversing the Habitual Flow of Me Me Me: July 14, 2013

Sutra 2.2 says the practices of yoga are to loosen the grip. The grip is holding us back from seeing more clearly to joy that is. Yogis for a long time have been trying to help us see that. But as humans we are often stuck in our habitual patterns that keep us small.

The practices of a Bodhisattva ask us to not only loosen the grip on our selves, but do it so that we can benefit others which is harder to do than it seems because it requires we break our patterns of me me me.
