the snow leopard — kat bettger

"Just as a white summer cloud, in harmony with heaven and earth freely floats in the blue sky from horizon to horizon following the breath of the atmosphere - in the same way the pilgrim abandons himself to the breath of the greater life that ... leads him beyond the farthest horizons to an aim which is already present within him, though yet hidden from his sight." -Lama Govinda (quote from The Snow Leopard, by Peter Matthiessen) beachk Each day, I wake up and am immediately met with thoughts and questions surrounding a subject that has become my life - yoga. How can I live this practice more authentically? How can I get over myself long enough to feel the presence of the Divine more fully? How can I get past my fears, my insecurities, how can I just be? and allow and open? How can I love more fully? How can I completely accept what is .. right now? Then I take a deep breath ... and watch as the answers to these questions come - I watch with awe the beauty of life unfolding. Today, it is my choice to abandon myself to the breath of the greater life that leads me beyond the farthest horizon .. to an aim which is already within me but yet hidden from my sight (sometimes).
