”Breath of Life”
Sunday Bulletin
We consciously unite with the sacred breath of life in meditation. This breath animates our existence as living beings. Breath is spirit. It is this current of spirit that connects our embodied life with our divine origin.
“The Self is the Breath of Life. Man does not live by the air he breathes in inhalation and exhalation. The source of his life is another. It is the Self.”
Katha Upanishad
Translation by Swami Premananda
Eight Upanishads
“The purpose of Yoga is seeking our largest, most enduring and most powerful identity. In this process we realize a potential consciousness that may seem dormant or undeveloped but is ultimately the most powerful, meaningful and sublime reality of Life. According to Yoga, ‘salvation’ is the birthright of every soul!
“Meditation begins with this invaluable recognition: With every breath, as we sit humbly on earth, we are dynamically connected with the entire Cosmic Life Breath and its Perfection."
—Swami Kamalananda
