Tapas is such an integral part of practice that “There can be no Yoga without tapas.” This Episode is about inner fire. It’s about what it takes to build, contain, harness, and direct energy. It’s about what it takes to create sustainable, transformative change in your life. It’ll offer you a dose of realness (’cause we have to be real with ourselves) and a boost of inspiration (’cause sometimes we just get stuck).

As with each one of them, a Sutra is a pearl of wisdom, to be properly chewed, digested and practiced before moving to the next one.

So sutra by sutra, and episode by episode this ancient teachings of patanjali are leading us on a path of becoming onewith the Divine Truth of our Being. But we’re not going to uncover this truth if we’re off kilter, full of toxins, and leaking energy everywhere. Which means the first step on this journey is deeply practical. We have to clean up our physical, mental, and emotional crap. Spiritual bypassing is the “tendency to use spiritual ideas and practices to sidestep or avoid facing unresolved emotional issues, psychological wounds, and unfinished developmental tasks.” We can’t bypass the hard work of tapas. If we’re serious about reaching our highest potential—if we’re serious about wanting to surface the conditioning that has separated us from the reality of who we are—we can’t bypass the hard work of tapas.

And as Aaron Copland, American composer, composition teacher, writer, and later on conductor of his own and other American music, also referred to by his peers and critics as “the Dean of American Composers” would say,…

You compose because you want to somehow summarize in some permanent form your most basic feelings about being alive, to set down… some sort of permanent statement about the way it feels to live now, today.

And today’s carefully curated playlist of world contemporary tunes, holds statements about the way it feels to live now, today… by these conductors of summerizerisations on feelings about being alive…

Bringing forth faith, hope, love, healing and the feminine, and with that not meaning gender, but the feminine principle that is living—or suppressed—in all of us men or women.”

because the power to either destroy, divide & suppress or to heal, unite, awaken, co-create & nourish, lie in our own hearts, visions & responsibilities.
