Namaste Friends....
The other day about 1 minute into Spinal Breathing Pranayam I had something "snap"......I have been feeling a bit down on myself a little lately feeling that I am not making as much spiritual progress as I "should be"....(yeah yeah, I know

) But at that moment in pranayam I realized that "judging" my "doings" is not helpful. It is more appropriate to just do without judging....the judgements are living in/thinking about the past. It is better for me to do what I will do and not judge myself based on these actions. BUT, with that said, this brought into question "right action" for me. Through inquiring into this I have realized that I don't need to worry about "right action" (personally). I know that in the "moment" I will always choose what I "feel" is right action.....I don't purposefully do things to hurt anyone, not even myself anymore. SO.....I can let go of judging myself and my actions and just BE myself now. I have done things (and will do things) that may not seem like "right action" in hindsight, but beating myself up over these things is not productive. It is better to focus on making the best decisions possible right NOW and letting go of the judgements surrounding these actions....what is done is done. Good to learn lessons from actions made in the past, but not good to focus on punishing yourself for not making the "best" decision in hindsight. This is a milestone for me.
Love,
Carson
