讓瑜珈落實到生活中，幫助我們走出悲傷
By Sujata
最近週遭朋友發生好多事情，有朋友的老公突然意外不治離開人間，留下一雙好可愛的稚齡兒女，也有朋友，小孩被醫生診治要讓家長擔心一輩子的症狀，愛成了肩上好重的甜蜜負擔，還有朋友和論及婚嫁的對象突然分手，選擇自己療傷，但心痛卻無淚假裝堅強讓人心疼。
人生有好多時刻，重擊突然降臨，來不及準備，來不及說暫停，來不及把一直藏在口袋寫滿愛意的詩篇朗誦給摯愛的對方，但生活的時鐘，卻不會因為這些事故對我們稍微放慢，讓我們有時間處理傷口，好好思索，暫時包紮傷口放下生活重擔然後再重新開始，因此，好多好多的狀況無情的陸續發生，無法反應對抗，只能拖著步伐，撐著柺杖，繼續前行.....
但，這也就是人生，這也就是幾乎無人可以倖免的在世的重重考驗。
親愛的朋友，我想對你們說，記得瑜珈墊上那個練習，記得你的呼....吸.....提醒那個覺知自己生命跳動就是最大的恩賜的感恩，每一個生命的關口，每當自己懷疑自己喘不過氣的時刻，給自己一個雙臂擁抱自己，然後大口呼吸，即便和著眼淚，即便裹著傷痛，請你保持和呼吸的連結，即便失去全世界，即便你責怪神對你不公平，請你繼續保持每一口呼吸的覺知，把注意力放到每一個參予呼吸的鼻，肺，肺泡，橫隔膜，心臟，血管，細胞，這麼多由宇宙能量顯化在你身上的每一處，那份氣息，那份維持你活下去的氣息，不要忘記這些，這些會一起幫助你度過，如同幫助過許多其他人.....
瑜珈不是練習如何倒立，你去馬戲團可以找到很多倒立在大象鼻子上的專業表演工作者，瑜珈就是幫助我們練習和生命能量接軌，即便你因為種種原因，必須暫時離開瑜珈墊，但不要忘了生活中的練習，因為那才是你每天要面對的挑戰。
我曾在極度悲傷的情況下，沿著海岸含著眼淚一路狂奔，只因為，我的友人告訴我，Run, 去感覺自己的心跳，當時我還沒接觸瑜珈，只好用這樣的方式提醒自己的存在，加油，加油，如果你有機會看到這篇文章，又剛好面臨生活的遽變，請你，每天一定給自己時間，去經驗，真正的，充分的，每個覺知都參予的呼吸.................
願所有瑜珈慈悲上師的能量幫助你，祝福妳！
Hari Om!!!

Recently a lot of things happen to my friends. A friend’s husband
died suddenly and unexpectedly left the earth, leaving a pair of adorable young
children behind. Another friend, her/his child was diagnosed a serious symptoms
which could make parents worry about a lifetime. Love has become such a heavy
yet sweet burden. Another friend recently broke up with ones boyfriend.
They were almost engaged. My friend chooses to hide sad feeling and heal by oneself,
but I know my friend's heart is broken......
There are many moments in life hit suddenly upon us, leave us no
time to prepare, no time to say stop please, too late to read love poems to. The
time of clock keep running, it shows no mercy to us. It gives us no time to
deal our wound. Duty keep coming, no time to take a break..........
However, this is life; everyone has to pass some test during one’s
life.
Dear friends, I want to say to you, remember what you have
practiced at yoga mat, remember your inhale, and exhale during the practice. Do
remind yourself that being able to breath is the miracle of life.
Whenever we feel that we could not breathe, give yourself a hug by
your own arms, not depends on the others. Take a big breath even tears is
flowing, even wrapped in grief. Don't forget your links with your breathing. Even
you lost the whole world, even you may blame God is unfair to you, please
continue to keep every breath awareness, put attention on each participating
parts of your body and mind. Through the breathing of nose, lungs, alveoli, diaphragm,
heart, blood vessels, cells, so much outer and inter organs and energy from the
universe manifested in your gross body. That’s the signs of God is not abandon on
you. Every single cells and prana in your body will maintain your breath
to live. Do not forget , these will help you to go through every challenge in
life, just like these have been helped many others.
The practice of yoga is not all about how to do headstand or
handstand. It is to help us to practice yoga in daily life, good time and bad
time. If you have to leave the regular yoga class for any reason, it’s ok. But
don’t stop practicing in your own daily life. That’s more important.
If you have the opportunity to see the article, and just facing
rapid change of life, please, give yourself some time every day , to experience
the real breath, the full breath, the breath with your whole body and mind. Give
yourself a chance to feel better........... ......
May all the light of energy from Gurus shine upon you and bless
you!!!
