by cultivating an attitude of
by cultivating an attitude of
friendliness toward those who are happy,
compassion toward those who are unhappy,
compassion toward those who are unhappy,
delight in those who are virtuous
and dispassion toward those who are wicked.
and dispassion toward those who are wicked.
--Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, 1.33
Through this practice we overcome selfishness, envy, greed and anger. We strengthen ourselves and develop compassion, forbearance and patience. We become free from malice. Other people take comfort in our presence.
A yoga practitioner becomes a blessing to everyone, uplifting oneself and others.
Om Shanti!
