Guest guest Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 Dear Respected Vishvanath: ******You stated: Nina Nicola Williams from Australia wants to know why even after several years of practicing yoga, many of the students and some teachers of yoga do not show any sign of change in their attitude. ******* The answer to the question is understanding the word svaahaa at the end of each action in yaj~n: yaaska ##explains the expression svaahaa, which implies the renunciation of ego, svatvahava: ## su aahaa iti vaa\, svaa vaag aaheti vaa\, svam praaheti vaa\, svahuta.m havirjuhoti iti vaa || nirukta 8\.21 || Ego like a dog'd tail. You can try to put it (tail = ego) in a pipe (yoga) for few days or years. As soon as the pipe is removed the famous tail takes its natural curved form.
