Who is a real yoga teacher? A true teacher helps people come into harmony with their true selves, thus avoiding and overcoming suffering. Understand how love and compassion can be found in a true yoga teacher.
Yoga shows how to avoid suffering and come into harmony of body, mind and Spirit. Maya is the delusion or confusion which makes us misperceive everything. From maya comes spiritual ignorance (and vice versa.) Spiritual ignorance causes bondage. Yogis move from maya to daya, compassion. Any yogi who has spiritual awakening has compassion. A true yoga teacher is actively engaged in reducing suffering. That’s what a yoga teacher is all about.
