Just came back from a yoga session. I saw my fellow yogi, Z was there and he spotted a very short hair and I greeted him. He was a bit quiet and he sits far apart from his girl partner, Ir. He has been missing a few class and yogi, Ir have been coming on her own for the past few classes. They are not talking and I think their friend have hit a rock and sank.Their relationship have been on going for a few years now and I think both of them have change their parners before they were together.
The same happens to my yoga teacher, M. The last time, she had a relationship with our fellow yogi, A and after a few months, it was broken up and she has been dating a few guys . Nothing serious at the moment.
I think relatioinship between yogis is very fluid because as we practice, we concentrate on ourself and body. We make our self aware of our body and mind and each movement. Through meditation we realize the power of our mind and we tend to be more real and sensitive to our body. As our body and mind become more alert, we see the fragility of things. The impermanence. Through the pose, we strengthen and become aware of our body and through the health of our body, it nourishes our mind and we became more aware of our desires and needs.
The circle of body -mind-body connections will continue to evolve until perfection. The body nourishes the mind and the mind discipline and unleash the power of our body and the body sharpen and discipline our mind. It will evolves over and over if there is no interruptions until a perfect stage of awareness and strength.
So, relationships become very fragile and meaningless.
Once, I explain to a friend, Aru that we must be open minded and stop looking at a certain angle towards life. The picture infront of us will change with angle and its beauty will unfold at each change in the angle of our sight. Things often is not what it seems unless we see things from all different angles.
Same as relationship. It starts well because we see only the beautiful things we want to see and as relationship progress, we can see the relationsip in different angles and we become more and more aware of the different aspects of the relationship. So, we could see things that we do like or we start to have differing views.
We have to be conscious of these changes in the relationship and we have to learn to accept imperfections or differences, Other wise, the relationhips will get into obstacles and we will struggling to stay in or get out.
If we are not prepared to tolerate the needs and the cravings of your partner, the relationship is meaningless and it is better for partners to break up , rathen than to stay in. It becomes meaningless just to struggle to stay in . This arrangement will only bring more unhappiness.
Namaste.
