So many nuggets in there. One of the nuggets, I relate to, is, "Sadhana creates a meditative mind which can absorb all the stimuli in the environment, compute it, and then act wisely instead of just reacting."
I experience Yogi Bhajan's quote to be true for me. Even when I am doing my personal sadhana-doing Japji and my kriya for 40 days, I experience a flow to my day and a calm around groups of people. It really helps me not internalize other people's stuff which I am apt to do without Japjii and regular Kundalini Yoga and Meditation practice. Japjii is my personal prayer. It has taken me about two years to really embrace it and I now get it. It is my soul's prayer!
"We are willing to go to university for 6 years, specialize for 2 years, and write our PhD thesis for 2 years about how the wind blows, how cockroaches live, or how monkeys play. But we never spend time on who we are and how we want to be." 2/10/98
