Yoga, self study in a world of diversions.............

As you find your balance in asana practice, refer to Sutra 2.46 in The Yoga Sutras of Pantajali:

2.46 Shtirasukamasanam:  Asana having the qualities of stability and comfort.

Shtira - stability, support, strength
Sukha - ease, comfort, yeilding

Each pose (asana) holds knowledge when the practitioner finds this balance.   This  knowledge brings us to a place deep within, to the presence of "self".  We can plant seeds there of loving kindness during each practice.  Then as we return, again and again we know that as the great teacher pronounced: "practice and all is coming."
