God dwells in our heart in the form of light...

From an email sent to me by one of our Yoga East teachers, Lavenia McDaniel:

Experienced on so many levels…Thank You, Honor & Reverence to “all My Teachers” forever Grateful..
In the yoga shastra it is said that God dwells in our heart in the form of light, but this light is covered by six poisons: kama, krodha, moha, lobha, matsarya,and mada. These are desire, anger, delusion, greed, envy and sloth. When yoga practice is sustained with great diligence and dedication over a long period of time, the heat generated from it burns away these poisons, and the light of our inner nature shines forth.
Namaste
