Listen "56. Satya: Truth"
Episode Synopsis
This week I'm here to tell you:
You CAN handle the truth!
In fact, not only can you handle it, you ARE it.
But sometimes we can't see it. We do not see by the Light of Truth within, so we can't see the Light of Truth around us. Things like inner conflict, lack of sleep, poor diet, increased stress, and lack of movement cloud our perception. We start to see the world as ugly, lacking, and dark. We are more easily fooled by the illusion of separateness and scarcity. Attachments and aversions creep in and create suffering.
We get a lot of dross covering up our golden joy.
In this week's podcast, I discuss the second YAMA of SATYA, or Truth. In its most basic form, SATYA takes the form of controlling speech so as not to lie. But beyond that, when you establish your life in Truth, it "burns away the dross"(B.K.S Iyengar, Light on Yoga) and reveals a life of abundance.
