 Yoga  part  7

My practice has developed over the last year and a half;
Desiring to learn the deeper things of Yoga.
I found a huge circle,
Without a beginning or an end,
If I am fully present any pose will lead to the unification of my soul.
Not in Astanga yoga , not in hot yoga, or Integral yoga, not even in Birkham yoga;
None of these lead to anything without presence.
The power of simple presence in the moment,
Nothing fancy,
Just to my personal edge with full awareness;
Wham!!!
Standing in Tadasana, the mountain, is enough;
Allow the flowing  grace from within to escape outward into my life.
With the power of presence, my mind settles, creativity is ignited;
I am in union.
My soul reaches into the darkness to cut on the light;
A simple switch, nothing complex, just peaceful exploration.
Now I see another entity  in this presence now;
God is waiting, beckoning with His love.
I am Yogi, I am free to become that I was created to become.

I sit in silence, legs folded in the lotus,
Waiting on God, be still and know…
Prayerfully engaged within my heart,
Not asking for anything, just waiting.

My practice flows from asana to asana with a new found grace.
Gentle is the practice as Spirit now controls, flowing with the power of union.
Yoga is the practice of seeking God in my life, it is prayer, meditation, and study;
Body, mind, and breath; one presence; one life unified; One God.
