Tapas has become one of the most important disciplines in my life. Tapas means to apply all your discipline to your practice, or as I like to think about it- no pain, no gain. And to me, tapas, or discipline towards a goal, applies to much more than just my asana practice. It applies to everything around me that I am trying to change and improve. My quest for becoming a better person (or finding emptiness, per my lineage) and everything that falls under than huge umbrella. I work on changing for the better, I forgive myself for my mistakes, and finally, I give thanks for this realization.
This week, thank all those people around you that give you these realizations. This includes the person that pissed you off on the train (for they made you realize that your anger is useless), that person that made you feel bad about yourself because they were prettier/smarter/richer than you (for you are responsible for feeling that way towards them, its not their fault), your parents (for they love you), thank EVERYONE, for everyone teaches you something every single day.
This week, I am at Viva Vinyasa on Monday night at 7:30
Wednesday at Quick Fitness, 7 am
Sunday 10:00 am at Quick Fitness
My class is cancelled on Thursday at Viva and on Friday at Quick Fitness.
Happy thanksgiving!
