He reflects on the importance of finding one's inner teacher and the challenges of navigating traditional teachings. As he explores deeper connections within the practice, he discusses the disillusionment he faced and the quest for understanding the body and its communication. The dialogue emphasizes the significance of embodiment and the search for authenticity in yoga. In this conversation, Carlos explores the dichotomy between the left and right hemispheres of the brain, emphasizing the importance of reconnecting with the right brain's capacity for experiencing the world as a dynamic, living process. He delves into the significance of mythology as a vessel for intergenerational wisdom and the necessity of sensing and experiencing rather than merely intellectualizing. The discussion transitions into the journey of self-discovery, the creation of space for intuition, and the challenges of navigating the dark aspects of the soul.
