The past two classes I've attended, another student approached me afterward, finding beauty in our practice. Their comments resonate deeply with me.
In practice, drishti is the key:
We become aware of how our brains only let us see what we want to see—a projection of our own limited ideas. Often our opinions, prejudices, and habits prevent us from seeing unity.
Drishti is a technique for looking for the Divine everywhere—and thus for seeing correctly the world around us. Used in this way, drishti becomes a technique for removing the ignorance that obscures this true vision, a technique that allows us to see God in everything.
Yoga Journal The Eye of the Beholder David Life, p2
Release the attachment to mindful perceptions of things. Allow your primary eye-sense to relax. Whole new states of mind grow from such a fuZZy visual world.
