...such
abilities and skills will not arise within an "ordinary" mind. Yes,
without the Enlightened state of mind -- such as you forge in The
Neti Yoga Enlightened Mastery Program -- your natural, success-giving
powers are at serious risk of dying on the vine! What a waste that would
be!
Here's
something important to consider:
You
may have seen documentaries on "The Discovery Channel," "In Search Of"
or many other TV programs where individuals displayed impressive feats
of strength, skill, agility or even metaphysical "miracles"...
...
And if so, you probably wondered how they could do this — how they
could develop such amazing — almost superhuman — abilities.
Well,
let me give you one, final example from my own life about how this can
be done: As you may already know, I'm approaching my eighth decade of
life. And it's the absolute truth that I'm in great health ... and
that I don't even wear glasses...
... alright, I grant you that there may be a few other "senior citizens"
who might also stay in that kind of shape.
But
how about this? Just for the fun of it, Barbara Gail and I still occasionally
teach local classes in a variety of health-related subjects ... and
in the class we teach on "Fitness And Well-Being," I always begin by
offering this challenge (and understand, now, I'm a grey-haired grandfather):
"Anyone
whose 'abs' — abdominal muscles — are harder than mine
will receive these classes for free!"
I
know it sounds a little weird, but stay with me on this. Sure, there
are usually a few giggles from the students — but almost no "takers"...
...
so I'll invite the prettiest girl in class up to the front ... have
her take the tip of her thumb and press on my belly as hard as she can
...
...
and I have a wonderful laugh when her jaw drops in awe and dismay ...
as she discovers she's poking a belly that's hard as a rock!
I
have her report her experience to the class ... then I reveal to my
students that I do no exercising — at least, not in the
conventional sense. No sit-ups. No "ab crunches." No weight-lifting
— nothing like that. Yet almost no one's body is as hard as mine
... except for maybe Barbara Gail's!
But
that's not the shocker — there's more to it than just a rock-hard
gut — because the secret of our iron-hard bodies is (are
you ready for this?)...
