As the new and last month of the year rolls around, amidst the flurry of cleaning and decorating and getting ready for whatever we celebrate, at the back of our minds is the thought: How did I do this year and where am I headed?
You did fine. You did what you did, so it must be fine. If not, why did you do it? If we are aligned with our spirit/soul/SELF or Universal Energy/God/Tao/Buddha Self, we did fine. Otherwise we are simply what everyone else has made us. We become molded by our environment rather than by the all-knowing dictates of the soul within. We are out of balance and feel stress. When we are at one with who we truly are, there is no self-doubt or fear or wondering. It IS, because it is meant to be. Listen intently to yourself, in silence. What should I do, where should I go? Find out what drives you, what thrills you, what moves you. YOU ARE THAT! You are TRULY That.
Tat tvam asi!
Namaste,
sipra

What does the word 'Spanda' mean? From Yogapedia:
Spanda
is a Sanskrit word derived from the root, spadi, which means “to move a little." It is usually translated to mean “movement," “motion" or “vibration."
Spanda
is regarded as being the pulsing, radiating energy that comes from the absolute or Supreme Consciousness (Brahman).
