Spiritually I have my connection

The Bhagavad Gita teaches yoga as a way of life.

30th April, 2010

The tree felt distant, or I felt distant, unable to tune in.

I am still in the grip of a powerful mood – this makes one self-centred energetically, less available to others, including other energies. I can observe this state and know it will pass, but most people live embedded in that – no wonder there is lack of sensitivity, lack of empathy. The tamasic moods, and also the rajasic ones, do this, whereas sattwic moods are expansive, the bandwidth is receptive.

At the moment I am energetically contracted, I feel it physically, mentally, psychically, but not spiritually. No, spiritually I have my connection with the teachings, which is like gold, unaffected. And I have yoga tantra, which lets me use the tamasic mood to make progress.
