Rajas
Our active nature comes from Rajas.
Rajas allows us to move, transcend, evaluate.
In our practice we seek to balance the Yogi and the Warrior.
The Warrior sees injustice and wants to fight for a solution, committing passion and perfect attention to any challenge. For the Warrior, the will leads the way toward peace.
The Yogi sees disharmony and chooses acceptance, understanding that things are never perfect. For the Yogi, peace can only arise from letting go of expectation and dissatisfaction.
Through our practice we weave a dance, sometimes fighting for what we want, sometimes surrendering to what can’t be changed. Our practice is coming to terms with our dual nature, the Warrior and the Yogi.
