Very peaceful, and the feeling of peace it imparts is one of the things I love about Julia's videos. It's not important what one's beliefs are. Something from her message will touch the mind, even at the unconscious level.Thank you for sharing it!
Couldn't Julia teach yoga from home, to a few people?
This closing down of venues has had a worldwide disastrous economic impact on small independent business. But it's important to know that we can and will rebound and that new venues will soon open. Sitting at home will not last. As people, we crave being around people; it's part of our makeup as social animals and nothing, no governments, no political systems can change it.
The spirits behind the pursuit of personal enlightenment stand in opposition to the Holy Spirit of God and the Son of God, Jesus Christ. Gnosticism, which articulates the drivers behind this type of spirituality, defines the Creator, whom I worship, as an evil being. The Bible, in turn, warns that the spirits who promise that we can find the spark of divinity within us are deceptive, and that this will only become apparent once it is too late. I say this without any personal animosity - the differences are irreconcilable. In the mean time, we must choose our allegiances based on what we love most. Personal enlightenment is always about an inner journey, always focused on oneself. I love the God that I worship more than I love myself. I would rather grown in my knowledge of Him than plumb the depths of my inner being.
I saw a few interviews with professionals, and thought that might be the common thread, or dominant theme, of this substack. I was mistaken, and that is fine. I've never actually seen the pursuit of enlightenment presented in this manner, with the flowers and the person who looks half asleep. Even apart from my faith, it holds no appeal for me. I don't want to empty my head - I enjoy what I do with my mind. I don't like sentences that are fatally vague and convey absolutely no meaning and I don't trust people who speak in that manner. But most of all, I don't want to become "one" with the rest of humanity. I've worked with "humanity" in its less flowery forms. Humanity needs help, and I have a responsibility to be charitable, but I don't want to fuse with it. And I've seen enough of socialism in this world and the manner in which it leads to totalitarianism. The last thing I want is spiritual socialism that leads to spiritual ....? My faith allows me to be myself, as an individual, to be loved, to have joy and comfort, and to understand the world with an objective, defensible, theology. If this path of personal enlightenment truly were representative of what this universe is ultimately about, having tasted the alternative, I would not want to be a part of this universe.
Shades of 1967, minus the sitar! Sorry, I could only listen to a few seconds. I really don't like it when someone uses soothing language. Too hypnotic. Reminds me of an EST seminar I stumbled into by accident many years ago. I prefer being on the edge to being centred anyway. If you're going to get my attention, make it as intense as you can manage. Really put your heart into it.
