Homework

Yoga homework/studying is my kind of homework/studying. I lovers it.

Yoga simply cannot reach it's goal with words and philosophy alone. To attain and achieve the main goal of yoga, practice must be present. Every. Single. Day.
If you can control the rising of the mind into ripples, you will experience yoga.
Being able to completely calm the mind and just be = yoga.
Chittam - the sum of the mind. There are 3 different levels of chittam. The basic mind is called ahamkara (the ego, the "I" feeling) From there we rise to huddhi (the intellect or discriminative) The final stage is called manas, the desiring part of the mind, which gets attracted to outside things through the senses.
The entire outside world is based on your thoughts and mental attitude. The entire world is your projection.
Only you can make your world and your life at peace. It is in the way we let our minds think. If we think positively and peaceful, we will live and be positive and peaceful beings.
To understand that eternal peaceful You, the mind must be quiet, otherwise, it is to distort the truth.
The seer can never misunderstand nor forget itself. The true you is always the same, but you appear to be distorted or mixed up with the mind. By making the mind clean and pute, you feel you have gone back or you appear to have gone back to your original state.
