“What is the origin of this world?
Space, said he. Verily, all things here arise out of space. They disappear back into space, for space alone is greater than these, space is the final goal.”— Chandogya Upanishad 1.9.1-1.9.2
Practicing YOGA is a way to CREATE SPACE inside the human experience. We practice CREATING SPACE with our breath and activating that SPACE with our breath.
