What is repentance? Is it only regret over a past action? Yogis find true repentance involves transformation in mind and purpose. Here we take the help of Patanjali and bhakti yoga.
In yoga we go from a matter focus to a Spirit focus. We go from “I and my preoccupations with me” to “You, Lord,” from fear and desire to faith in the kingdom; from ignorance to enlightenment. This to a yogi is repentance. Metanoia: “immersion in mind, pure consciousness, leading to transformation of the mind, thoughts and purpose.” Has it happened to you?
