To embody the teachings of the masters, we do practices that train the body to have different appetites and responses. We learn how to walk the talk and go more deeply into the emotional commitment to devotion, using the power of rhythm.

One can study ideas and develop a subtle understanding of a sacred path with its wisdom and perhaps a code of behaviour that helps one to live well in accordance with decided ethical guidelines. This is exemplary and yet it is not mysticism. A mental approach to God is not complete since we are more than mind. To embody the teachings of the masters, we do practices that train the body to have different appetites and responses. We learn how to walk the talk.

With chanting one can go more deeply into the emotional commitment to devotion, one can learn to align one's feelings with one's beliefs and during the process of fully integrating the knowledge in this form, very often an emotional purification takes place.

Also the power of rhythm is used to great effect, not only by the repetition of a mantra a certain number of times, but also repeating those same practices at the same time daily and then establishing an annual rhythm of retreat.

Full moon meditations can also be used to underline a moon-orientated rhythm of practices. In this way sequential time loses some of it tyrannical grip. One conditions one's body to orientate itself to achieve a sacred resourceful state and thus one can develop a powerful protection for times of personal crisis. Since we embark on our spiritual journey hoping to improve our lives, we must not be surprised to find changes occurring - in relationships, in work, at home and in our friends.

In many cases it is necessary to let go of what was in order to be open to what will be.
