As we head into the year 2020 I want to prepare the way by identifying with what is true and clear. What helps us have perfect vision: the light that is within us. Without this light our vision is clouded by wrong identification. This means we begin to identify more with the external than the internal, more with our ego than with our spirit. We start to suffer because we attach our happiness to material things, and because we allow things that we don’t like to agitate us.
There’s a beautiful mantra that we use in yoga which is Sat Nam. Sat Nam basically means I am, or I am that. I am that which is eternal. When you use this mantra you could just say "I am" and remember who you are. Or you could say "Sat Nam," and remember that you are identifying yourself with the beauty beyond your ego.
In this week's podcast, we breathe and center on the mantra Sat Nam, and Iidentify four ways to remember to identify yourself with what is beautiful and eternal this holiday season.
