Trilokia Mohana

So, here we come to my favorite phrase hands down in Sanskrit that I've learned from my teachers and it is trilokya mohana. It is what is translated by my teacher Rod Stryker as the seduction of the triple world and the seduction of the triple world we get very seduced into thinking that time is this beginning middle and beginning middle and beginning middle and Brahma Vishnu Shiva, Brahma Vishnu Shiva, we get very seduced into thinking this kind of hamster wheel is reality. And if we look at from that last sutra, the word suk, the first part of that, actually means the hub of the wheel, the sweet spot, the center. So whether we're thinking of this in a process of an asana class, we do the beginning and the middle, we get to the end, we're done. We go to class tomorrow, we wake up and do it again.

Or we think about it in our life, well, I'm going to do this job until I get this raise and then I can do my passion project and then or I until I get this amount of money in my bank account and we get seduced into thinking and putting off our recognition, our happiness, our joy, our sweetness until some perceived moment in the future. This we get seduced by this triple world, it's beginning middle end. And the processes of yoga, yoga practice, asana, meditation, breathing is to find the sweet spot, to find the center, the presence within the pose. This is where the bliss lies. This is where the joy lives.

This is where we're reunited, where we're healing the divide, whether it's between you and me, me and my body, me and these pastures. Our journey is into the center, into the sweetness.
