This evening we discussed techniques to help us access the subconscious mind. To reinforce particular behavior(s) and to help us become aware of the answers that we seek. Each person has a particular personality that is amenable to certain techniques. It is up to you to utilize the techniques that work best w/ your mind/body complex. Once you have found the techniques, they must be practiced to be effective. Repetition is key. No one can do the work for you. Walking the yogic path takes persistence, study, diligence. It is not about seeking approval from others, for certainly someone will disapprove. It is not about looking to others for answers, for everyone has an opinion. Only you are capable of knowing yourself. And, like cultivating any relationship, the one you have with yourself takes patience and time. Caring for, loving, and nurturing yourself. The answers will come.
Shanti,

"The things you need in life are those that will help you to fulfill your dominant purpose. Things you may want but not need may lead you aside from that purpose. It is only by making everything serve your main objective that success is attained."
