Taking the Hatred out of Politics
From Raw Shakti (Taialofa and Kevin's Yoga Business) On Facebook:
Yoga Sutra I.33 - Patanjali:My Reply:
By cultivating attitudes of friendliness towards the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous, and disregard toward the wicked, the mind-stuff retains its undisturbed calmness.I really like this sutra because it is one of the few sutras, if not the only sutra, that talks about relationship with others. I find this very helpful when trying to respond to others.
What a lovely quote. To be so simple, it's quite inspiring. It suggests a way to stay politically active and still be happy...by adopting a compassionate rather than antagonistic attitude toward the opposition. In other words, it takes the hatred out of politics and puts the love back in!

The Day Hell Froze Over!
It was so cold for Obama's inauguration it snowed here in Charlotte—just a dusting, but enough for Sophie and I to enjoy. I guess Hell has finally frozen over!
