THE YOGA OF ONE TASTE
The Yoga Of One Taste
We all like to feel good. We like to be with our guru or lama, go to temples, walk in the mountains, chant prayers with others, eat nice food … but feeling good isn’t the same as the yoga of one taste.
If we think that doing these things makes us feel good, then there will be things we don’t like, such as noisy, busy places, people who chatter on, the news … our reaction can actually a catalyst for the yoga of one taste.
The yoga of one taste is the moment before we decide whether we like or dislike. It’s just tasting, seeing, smelling, hearing, touching – all non-conceptual, non-dual pure consciousness.
While noisy busy places can appear to be unpleasant, when we make no mental comment of like or dislike, this is the perfect condition to experience the yoga of one taste.
While beautiful peaceful surroundings can appear to be pleasant, when we make no mental comment of like or dislike, this is the perfect condition to experience the yoga of one taste.
Whether experience is pleasant or unpleasant,
the yoga of one taste is just experience.
Yoga means unity.
