The yogic view is that the soul is your true personality. What we normally call personality is not our true self, not our essence. Explore suggestions from yoga and metaphysics about finding and living in your true personality.

Your soul wants to reveal itself to you. Often, however, we block or deny soul experiences by habitually centering in the false sense of self. Sincere yoga practice opens one to awareness which is beyond the ego. Explore exercises which can facilitate the process of finding the core self. Your soul eagerly awaits your recognition.

We often face choices and situations in life which serve as tests. They show us how we are doing and what we still need to learn. Explore yogic approaches to dealing with life’s tests. You can have more insight, clarity and better outcomes as you abide in the true self, not the ego.

Yoga and metaphysics, although separate paths, greatly enrich one another. Successful practitioners of both paths become transformed as they come to know Spirit. They discover the celestial awareness in which they can live conscious of Spirit at all times.

Ernest Holmes, the great metaphysical thinker and founder of the Religious Science movement, explains that we have forgotten the celestial place from whence we come. Through yoga and metaphysical practices of release and surrender, we can rediscover this lost paradise.

In the Bhagavad Gita we find inspiring words from Sri Krishna about the development of wisdom and light. He describes the qualities which come as a result of attunement with Spirit. The lamp of wisdom, lit within us by the Lord, ultimately leads to an unbroken awareness of the Divine.

The Bible is full of uplifting scriptures which refer to God as light. Attunement with the light of Spirit brings peace, wisdom, goodness and guidance. As we begin to relate to Spirit, it is often through experiences of light.

Sri Sarada Devi (1853 to 1920) was the consort and spiritual successor to Sri Ramakrishna. Also known as Holy Mother/Sri Ma, she embodied the unconditional love of the Divine Mother, accepting and welcoming all people. She emphasized the absolute supremacy of devotion.

Your unique vibration is a manifestation of the Divine. Through yoga practice you can make the distinction between your vibration and the false sense of self, the ego. Abiding in your vibration can help you diminish the fetters (chains of anger, fear, guilt, grief, arrogance and prejudice). Attuning with your vibration helps you discover your essence, your core self.
