Fall in love with your body.



The first step on the path to spirituality
The spiritual is never tense; it can not be. There is no spiritual tension, is only bodily tension, only mental tension.

Bodily tension created by those who in the name of religion, preached the ideas opposed to the body. In the West, Christians were decidedly hostile to the body.

It created a false division, a gulf between you and your body; then you are completely fit to the body from the perspective of creating tension. You can not eat or sleep relaxed; every movement of the body has been energized. The body - is the enemy, but you can not exist without it
.
You have to stay in it, you have to live with your enemy, so there is a constant voltage; you can never relax.

your body is not your enemy, it does not set up to be hostile or indifferent towards you. The very essence of the body - the bliss. And when you take the body as a gift, as a divine gift, you are returned to the body.

You will love him, he will feel, feel the subtle manifestations.
You can not feel the body of another person, if you have not felt your own, you may not like the body of another, even if you did not love your own body; this is not possible.

You can not take care of the body of another person, if not taken care of his own body, and no one cares! You may say that you care, but I insist: no one cares. Even if you feel that you care, it really is not.

You care for other reasons - because of the opinions of others, or you care what you look like in the eyes of others; you never take care of your body to yourself. You do not love your body, and if you can not love it, you can not be in it.

Love your body and you will feel so relaxed, which had never before experienced. Love relaxes. When there is love, there is relaxation.

If you love someone if between you and another person is love, then with love comes the music of relaxation. Then there is relaxation.

The same thing happens when you love your body; you become relaxed, you care about him. There is nothing wrong, it's not narcissism - fall in love with his own body. In fact, this is the first step towards spirituality.
