However, he refers to it as the social cycle theory where history repeats itself in a way, where the repetitive nature does not necessarily prevent progress. He classified society as "reality is spiritual", "reality is material", or "idealistic" which is a synthesis of the two (the middle if you will). He also spoke that in the future, our society of technological progress would come to fall into decadence, where a new idealistic era would emerge. Sound familiar? I too, sense a shift within the greater yoga community and my local one as well. So it would make sense, to me anyway, why psychically we are shifting as individuals because the shift is also taking place in our greater society. Now, where that shift goes, we'll just have to wait and see :)Shannon McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07060435729346059450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5257811012678007955.post-84315634503859945952012-08-25T06:23:23.354-07:002012-08-25T06:23:23.354-07:00Will write something on the Greeks and extremes a...Will write something on the Greeks and extremes and yoga soon. <br /><br />Even the yoga sutra starts in the middle of things, atha yoga anusasanum. <br /><br />before we were doing something else, grammar and aruyveda, preparatory work, now yoga.Anne-Marie Schultzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05059132292950169728noreply@blogger.com
