In yoga... By buying into notions that we’re “all the same” - TopicsExpress



          

In yoga... By buying into notions that we’re “all the same” and thinking that we should identify with the bliss-place rather that our earthly cloak, we sometimes get tricked into ordinary cultural blindness and fail to see that that kind of believing can invisibilize identities that are not mainstream, and unwittingly become a part of the cultural mechanics that support oppression, like constant messages that everyone should be slim, loose weight, and be married… I think that an “all one” yoga mentality can too easily slide into less tolerance on the earthly plane where we live our embodied lives—this place is important to me.
