STRENGTH AND SUPPORT IN SATYA

THE 1ST LIMB OF YOGA; THE 2ND YAMA: SATYA

SATYA is defined as: TRUTHFULNESS, HONESTY, INTEGRITY in our thoughts and words and actions....

There is no coincidence or accident that SATYA is a strong support in this first SPOKE ON THE WHEEL, as we travel this journey of ours in life! Thousands of years ago, TRUTH, HONESTY, INTEGRITY were deemed so important in LIVING OUR YOGA, that SATYA 'made it' in the TOP TWO YAMAS....

And as we ponder the question: AM I LIVING MY YOGA? Yoga asks us: ARE YOU LIVING IN SATYA? IN TRUTHFULNESS? IN HONESTY? IN INTEGRITY with yourself and others?

Are the words I/we choose to think, speak, share HONEST? TRUE? or are they distorted to rationalize actions into righteousness?

Satya begins with me, withIN me.....am i being honest with myself? If not, how am I able to be honest with you? with others?

A helpful guide before speaking is to ask:
ARE MY WORDS KIND?
ARE THEY TRUE?
ARE THEY NECESSARY?...if so, then we can be more grounded in beginning a dialogue with ourselves and with others...

There is much for us to consider on this partnership with SATYA, IF WE CHOOSE TO LIVE OUR SATYA...let this day begin with a little more conscious awareness of the thoughts we CHOOSE to think, the words we choose to give life/voice to, then HOLD AN OPEN HEART to continue this journey as we LISTEN....

We're only JUST BEGINNING this exploration and understanding of SATYA~

Om Shanti, Peace on this JOURNEY INTO TRUTH....
