Karma
is very complicated and difficult to define. Its essence is an energy
that connects all living things. Basically, the energy that you put out
verbally, mentally, or through actions, comes back to you in one way or
another. Karma is the result of a person’s actions and the actions
themselves. It is a Universal principle of cause and effect. It is
about taking responsibility for one’s own actions. I like to think of
it as my tie to other living beings. The push that makes me want to help
others without asking for anything in return.
When
I practice yoga, I feel more in touch with these feelings. Taking the
time to be present and focus on the breath gives me the space to think
beyond my own world.
With
this space, it is much easier to put ourselves out there and take on
situations that otherwise might overwhelm us. For myself, I am quite shy
and often opt out of newer situations, especially with people I don’t
know. But this week, I participated in a very public event with many
spectators - I was part of the yoga Flash Mob! I hope that through
sharing my love of yoga, others will come to discover its healing and
inspirational qualities. (Video to follow!)
How have you reached out to others this week?
