"The greatest way to create is to get out of your own way and be the vessel for something greater than yourself to move through you." - Jeremy Pivan
My soul wants to sing. I mean that in a multitude of ways. I love my guitars and I love bringing that into my yoga. I recently manifested a lovely harmonium (eastern) into my path as well (Pranams, Suresh!) and something about that harmonium that lets me go there! It's different than my guitar although I love and appreciate them both equally so... but the harmonium allows me to get lost in the expression and run organic "riffs" of bhakti/devotion, or better expressed, it deeply allows me to get out of my own way and let my body and voice be the vessel for something greater to move THROUGH me. I'm *so* into this space that within the last 2 days, I have ordered a Shruti box (think of a 4 lb harmonium) from India and a Ghungroos from Germany :) It's going to be a one (wo)man show ;)
Shiva asked me last week "what do you know, with absolute certainty, you are suppose to explore in your lifetime? I knew the answer before that early morning question and I know it most clearly now. It's part of my yogic path and that path that I am walking is my dharma. I know this to be certain.
Today I wear my new "Choose Joy." shirt and I smile because I have chosen just that, as a result of answering the call that has been put on my life. Who knows what that will look like later in a year from now in this sense, should the keeper of breath grant me that many more. I'll keep working with allowing myself to be the "vessel" through which goodness; and all things auspicious move through...
CHOOSE Joy.
