Love all beings and things as they are

If one wants to know yoga, or wants to practice yoga, or wants to be free from all sorts of suffering of unhappiness and restlessness of dissatisfaction, disappointment, frustration, anger, hatred, hurts, guilt, fear, worry, grief, painful sorrow, and etc, one can contemplate on this teaching, if one wants.

Minds that are free from suffering, are being free from ignorance and egoism. These minds don't fall in love with beings or things in this world no matter how good, pleasant, charming and attractive they appear to be, but merely being in peace and harmony while sharing this space of impermanent existence of names and forms with all beings and things out of wisdom and compassion, with correct understanding of the impermanent and selfless nature of all the names and forms in this world under the influence of ignorance and egoism, without expecting/wishing all beings or things have to be the way that the worldly minds would like them to be, but allowing all and everything to be what they are, as they are, even if they are not perfect, or not as good as how the worldly minds would like them to be.

These liberated egoless minds might or might not perform actions out of selflessness and compassion that would benefit the world, without any attachment, identification, craving/aversion, possessiveness, discrimination, judgment and expectation. There's no fear, worry, sorrow, grief, dissatisfaction, disappointment, frustration, anger, hatred, hurt, violence, ill-will, and etc, towards beings, things and happenings that are not necessarily the way that the worldly minds would like them to be. There's no expectation that all other beings must also be like them to be selfless and compassionate to perform actions that would benefit the world. There's no expectation that all other beings would not perform actions that would harm the world. There's no expectation that the world has to be all good and nothing bad after they have performed actions that would benefit the world. They are peaceful as they are, while living, moving and performing actions in the world, being undetermined by their actions and the fruit of their actions, or the impermanent good and bad condition of the world.

Contemplate on these, and be free -

Do one's best to perform actions that one thinks and believes are good and beneficial to the world out of compassion, but let it go instantly. Do not expect the world has to be all good and nothing bad, or there should be more good and less bad. Without the 'I' and possessiveness and desire, "Love the world, as it is, whether in good condition or in bad condition." instead of "I love the world and I want the world to be like this and not like that."

Do one's best to maintain the good health of this physical body out of compassion, without expectation that the body has to be all good and nothing bad. Without the 'I' and possessiveness and desire, "Love this body, as it is, whether in good health or in sickness." instead of "I love my body and I want my body to be like this and not like that."

Do one's best to maintain the good relationship with everyone whom we love, and appreciate things that we love, without expectation that all the relationships with everyone whom we love and things that we love have to be all good and nothing bad. Without the 'I' and possessiveness and desire, "Love all and everything as they are, whether they are the way that the mind would like them to be, or not." instead of "I love everyone and everything, and I want everyone and everything to be like this and not like that."

Those who don't know or don't understand this, would generate more unnecessary disturbs or disharmony in themselves and into the world, out of their 'love' towards the world, beings or things that they 'love' very much, under good or bad intention, whether aware or unaware.

Be free.

About Yoga

Know thyself. Everything is impermanent and selfless. There is no 'I'. There is no 'I am selfless'/'I am not selfless'. There is no 'I am hurt'/'I need to be healed from hurt'. Non-blind believing, non-blind following, non-blind practicing and non-blind propagating, but be open-minded to inquire the truth of everything. Be free. Be peaceful. Be happy.
