Fluid Yoga: Yoga Nidra with Kevan Gale

The King of Noble Prayers Aspiring to the Deeds of the Excellent comes from the Gandhavyuha of Avatamsaka sutra, section of Kajur. This has two meanings: 1) as this text is an aspiration and training to perfect the excellent deeds such as the Six Perfections, it has been interpreted and translated as the Deeds of the Excellent; 2) as this text was uttered by Samantabadra Bodhisattva to Sudhana and as the essence of this text is to
bring the trainee into the enlightened deeds, trainings, and virtues of Samantabhadra 
Bodhisattva, it has been interpreted as the Deeds of Samantabhadra. Translated by Tulku
Thondup and edited by Harold Talbott for the Sakya Lineage..

Kevan speaks of Equanimity in this 4 part series covering the 4 Limitless Qualities.  This dharma talk was given at Stil Studio in Greater Boston on Feb 1st, 2017. This is part of a series of weekly dharma discussion as part of Fluid Yoga trainings. Visit www.fluidyoga.com or www.stilstudio.com

4 Limitless Qualities:  Equanimity

Based on the writing of Shantideva, this multi-part series will cover the 37 Practices of a Bodhisattva - Part 1 - The Good Ship
Verses 1 -3 

Recognizing their true potential and letting go of everything which could hinder them on their spiritual journey, Bodhisattvas entrust themselves to the path taught by the Buddha. Resisting disturbing emotions, they learn to respond to difficult situations in a constructive way. Fully understanding the nature of reality and the illusion-like nature of pleasure and pain, they overcome clinging attachment and aversion. In these ways, Bodhisattvas come to cherish living beings as the source of all happiness and are ultimately able to work solely for the good of all.

The Yoga Sutra, widely regarded as the authoritative text on yoga, is a collection of aphorisms, outlining the eight limbs of yoga. These "threads" (as sutra translates from Sanskrit) of wisdom offer guidelines for living a meaningful and purposeful life. 

Patañjali divided his Yoga Sutras into four chapters or books (Sanskrit pada), containing in all 196 aphorisms, divided as follows: Samadhi Pada (51 sutras). Samadhi refers to a blissful state where the yogi is absorbed into the One. Sadhana Pada (55 sutras). Vibhuti Pada (56 sutras). Kaivalya Pada (34 sutras).

This 25 Min guided Yoga Nidra Session was recorded by Kevan Gale on July 25th, 2018. Yoga Nidra or yogic sleep is a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping, like the "going-to-sleep" stage.

It is a state in which the body is completely relaxed, and the practitioner becomes systematically and increasingly aware of the inner world by following a set of verbal instructions. This state of consciousness (yoga nidra) is different from meditation in which concentration on a single focus is required. In yoga nidra the practitioner remains in a state of light pratyahara with four of his or her senses internalised, that is, withdrawn, and only the hearing still connects to the instructions. The yogic goal of both paths, deep relaxation (yoga nidra) and meditation are the same, a state called samadhi.

Yoga nidra is among the deepest possible states of relaxation while still maintaining full consciousness
