Unshakable Stability: A Yogic Path to Inner Security
One of the constant underlying thoughts which got magnified during pandemic was sense of safety.
Feeling secure is extremely essential for us as it gives necessary support to achieve desired goals. A sense of security can be on various levels physical, emotional, and social.
Sometimes it is individual experience based on our capabilities. Sometimes being with people brings that security.
I have seen people with everything at disposal experiencing unheard insecurities and people with minimum comfort with rock solid safe notions.
It is the perception that we create due to our experiences. Though elements within us are very much responsible to develop this perception. In the same Pandemic times there were people who completely shut themselves from outside world and developed anxiety levels very high and some individuals dint worried rather they went out of comfort zone and helped others to survive.
Feeling secure for who we are at physical level is the initial step. You might be overweight, underweight, tall, short etc first accepting current condition of your beingness moving towards better stage of physical health that matters.
Similarly accepting your own thoughts , perceptions and gradually progressing towards better ones is correct process .
Life is a constant changing process but when we enjoy these changes with that strong internal bond of safety our journey becomes easier.
The human mind is inclined to the vulnerability , Restlessness due to conditioning from the beginning .
Path of Yoga gives multiple possibilities to bring unshakable stability to mind by bringing self-realization. Consistent practice of Meditation brings a deep Objective view towards everything in life . We realise the flow of life is constant, all ups and down are part of the process all we have to develop is the role of an actor with detachment i .e . Vairagya.
Once we understand only permanent is The self who is eternal we develop a deep sense of safety. Operating through this safe place within is the goal.
