Bhagavad Gita

I recently started reading the Bhagavad Gita because it is part of the curriculum for my yoga teacher training. One passage in particular stuck out to me:

"Though I am unmanifest, fools
think that I have a form,
unaware of my higher existence,
which is permanent and supreme."

In my opinion, this is a very important quote...it is saying that God cannot be reduced to a figure, such as God, Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, etc. The true god is not in anyway material, it  (not he or she) is beyond physical form. Humans have the need to know things - to know what god is and to have to assign it a figure or form that they can comprehend. The true God is everywhere and is in everything and everyone you see. The sky, the trees, the moon, a flower, a desk, a child, a lion - it is all God. You can worship God in every moment of the day by worshipping life itself. Worship God when you work, eat, make love, sleep - during all actions. This is what will bring you inner peace and constant joy. Step into the mystery of life and relax. It's ok not to know..

First time blogging

This is my first time having a blog. I thought it would be pretty cool to have a place where I can share some thoughts with the world. Who knows if anyone will ever read this blog unless I send out the link, but you never know. I know that I've been led to random people's blogs while searching for information on a subject and have always enjoyed reading other people's thoughts, tips, recipes, etc. I don't plan on having a set theme or something specific that I talk about each time I write. I may share recipes, talk about a book I recently read, or just ramble on about nothing in particular. We shall see where this blog leads me..
