There are some Yoga teachers, and Gurus, who will not agree with this use of Yoga meditation. There is a good reason for this: The mind is very powerful. When the mind is out of control, it can be a very destructive weapon.

How do we start? We start by giving and making acts of kindness a constant daily habit. This does not mean that you surrender to everyone, but you can start by smiling and giving what you can to worthy causes.

Some of us will never give anyone a break, for fear of being taken advantage of. This is just another form of self-imprisonment. We have no freedom when we are constantly worried that giving is foolish. Giving, to someone in need, is a gratifying experience and makes life worth living.
