PPY Manifesto Pt 4
Part 4 of 4: Connection
Because we teach the breath and movement in synchrony in a group, you immediately become connected to everyone else in the room. People who are similar to you, people who are very different from you, people you think you like, people you think you don’t like.
It is our greatest hope that when you see that you can move and breathe and connect with people with whom you wouldn’t normally connect outside of the yoga room, you can see that we are actually not so separate from one another. When you see yourself as not separate from one another, you can start to see aspects of yourself in all other people. When you see aspects of yourself in all other people, you can choose to keep connecting with others, finding common ground, seeing them as people and not “things.” When you see people as people and not objects or a threat, but as more similar to you than not, fear and judgement burn away.
Without fear and judgement hijacking our mindset, we are left to live and act solely from our true nature: LOVE.
