The Path of Letting Go: Embracing Spiritual Freedom

The essence of yogic teachings is that the universe is a single field of consciousness vibrating at different rates, manifesting as everything from physical matter to thoughts and emotions. At the human level, consciousness is the unchanging witness of our thoughts, emotions, and sensory experiences. Our sense of freedom is lost when we identify with what we are conscious of instead of consciousness itself. Suffering is created when we develop a false concept of self and try to make the outside world match this concept. Spirituality is not about controlling life to match our concepts but about freeing ourselves from them so consciousness can rest in its true nature, which is one of unconditional joy and peace.
