“The privilege is a lifetime is to become who you truly are.”

This clip is a stunning and important piece on those who have had the initial awakening into presence and then find themselves in a slow deconstruction. Motivation and direction collapse. I started this phase just before Covid and 6 years later it’s still integrating and deepening. Deep disorientation. Lack of an ability to even teach yoga in the way I have. A disinterest in so many things. And a capacity to see through so much nonsense in a matter of fact sort of way.

Lovely to hear Mr Young.

You’ve awakened… but now you feel empty, unmotivated, or completely detached from your goals, your purpose, even your self.You're not alone—and you're defini...

“Every single idea that we have in our heads—there are no exceptions—is an abstraction. It’s an abstract thing in the sense that the idea itself has no fundamental reality to it.”

The path of radical honesty, when embraced as an embodied connection rather than a mere practice, invites a profound transformation in how we relate to ourselves and the world. It calls for an unwavering willingness to see things as they truly are, stripping away the layers of pretence and denial that often obscure our perceptions. This approach invites a deep sense of authenticity, allowing us to engage with life and others from a place of embodied connection. By being radically honest, we cultivate a space where vulnerability becomes a strength, encouraging open dialogues and nurturing relationships built on trust and respect. This path challenges us to confront uncomfortable truths, yet it also offers the liberating potential of living in alignment with our core values and truths. Radical honesty as an embodied connection is not just about speaking truthfully; it is about living truthfully within ourselves, and embracing the complexity of human experience with courage and empathy.

PERSONAL PATHWAYS - True Identity Tuesdays 7.30-8.45pm On-Line.
This weeks topic: The distinction between “self” and “Self” is central to many spiritual traditions, especially in yoga and Vedanta.

• self (lowercase ‘s’) refers to the egoic or mental identity—our personality, body, thoughts, emotions, and the image we construct about who we are.

• Self (uppercase ‘S’) refers to the true, unchanging consciousness, also called Atman in Vedanta, which is beyond thought, perception, and the mind’s constructs.

Scriptural Backing from Yoga Texts

1. Bhagavad Gita (6.5-6)

“One must elevate oneself by one’s own mind and not degrade oneself. The mind is the friend of the self, and the mind is also the enemy of the self.”

• Here, Krishna points to the dual nature of the mind—it can serve as a means to transcend the false self or keep one trapped in it.

2. Mandukya Upanishad (Verse 7 – Turiya State)

“That which is beyond the senses, beyond thought, beyond all imagination, which is neither inwardly nor outwardly aware, but which is pure consciousness, that is the Self, the Atman.”

• This text clarifies that the true Self (Atman) is beyond all mental constructs and dualities.

3. Yoga Sutras of Patanjali (1.2, 1.3)

“Yoga is the cessation of the modifications of the mind. Then, the Seer (Self) abides in its own nature.”

• The Self is realised only when the mental activity that creates the false self is stilled.
