What if we could just relax a little? Join Anna and Shari as they talk about asmita, the second of the kleshas.
In yoga philosophy, we often talk about the BIG S Self and the small s self. Asmita is the small guy. He’s mighty, though. Don’t get me wrong. It’s because of asmita, we’re able to have a human experience and rediscover our Essence (or Big S) Self. This individual-ness is meant to be a flexible and resilient container for our self-awareness. But because of our mistaken perception, we start to believe it is the very self in its entirety, and the result is that we suffer. Why? Because when seen in that manner, we can’t help but notice that this so-called self is fragile, ever-changing, unsustainable, and painfully alone.
