I understand what religion is all about! People need something, something to hold on to, something to believe in. Something to strive towards, ask questions of or have faith in. I’ve never been a religious person so I’ve never understood the process or what it was all about.
Bikram, teaches us to believe in ourselves, have faith in our ability, let go of fear and be true to the one high power within us. Just like any other leader he gives us something to hold on to, something to believe in, and something to strive towards, to question and have faith in.
The thing I love about this faith is that it is totally inward facing. It is all about me, all about my faith in myself, overcoming my fears and trusting in my own personal abilities. This to me is far more powerful and more appealing than any external force or god that could be held up in front of me.
What I have learnt is that when you believe in something whole heartedly it becomes your saving grace, it is the thing that drives your greatest achievements. The most powerful part of this experience is learning to believe in myself.
I am the power! I am my god!
