365 Days of Fun and Chillaxation – Blog 245 – Just Be Yourself
Boxing day and it’s time to chillax.
I keep the book ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ beside my bed to dip into from time to time (I liked the book more than the movie). And for Christmas someone gave me my second copy. So, as if I’m expecting my shiney new copy to read diffently I’ve been flipping through the crisp pages. I came across a great message today that I wanted to share with you:
“God dwells within you, as you.”
As you.
If there is only one holy truth of this Yoga, that line encapsulates it. God dwells within you as you yourself, exactly the way you are. God isn’t interested in watching you enact some performance of personality in order to comply with some crackpot notion you have about how a spiritual person looks or behaves. We all seem to get this idea that, in order to be sacred, we have to make some massive, dramatic change of character, that we have to renounce our individuality. This is a classic example of what they call in the East ‘wrong-thinking’. … just stay as you are, within your natural character.”
Groovy. I appreciated, and must have needed, the reminder. So I would like to extend the reminder to you – you be you, ok? Ok.
