Knowing
our true nature and accepting ourselves as we are from moment to moment
by understanding the law of nature and respecting the ever-changing
phenomena of impermanence.
All these are the practice of yoga.
Although these
philosophies seemed like just a theory, but there will be no practice
available without a theory set as the guideline.
Practice means carry out the theory of a teaching practically.
We
often say ‘I know this and that’ and ‘I had learnt this and that’. But
it doesn’t mean anything unless we actually practicing it. It is like we
know lots of theory from the books, but what we think, act and speak is
not the same as what we know.
It is like we know what is patience and the importance of patience, but we have no patience at all.
It is like if we ask people to be truthful but we ourselves are not being truthful.
It is like when we expect other people to have awareness and be unselfish, but we ourselves have no awareness and are selfish.
