New Year — New Beginnings
Atha Yoganushasanam
अत योगानुससनम्
"Now, the teachings of yoga"
—Yoga Sutra 1.1
Just as we start the alphabet with the letter “A,” we start this New Year by looking at the very first of the yoga sutras, as expounded by Patanjali over 2000 years ago.
One distinct characteristic of this first sutra is its brevity. The word “atha” (in Sanskrit atha, pronounced ah-tah) is there to grab your attention. Patanjali is saying: I’m ready to teach, so listen up. Atha whispers a subtle reminder that all yoga teachings emerge from and lead us back to the timeless, ever-present now.
Here is something to try — Sit in a comfortable seat with a tall spine, close your eyes, and slowly control your breathing. With each exhalation, say the word “now” to yourself, drawing out the “w.” Feel how the present moment becomes suspended even as time passes and transforms into another moment of now. Before you begin your next practice, say it silently and see if it draws you into the present. In the words of Patanjali, you might feel the “layers and imperfections concealing truth” are “washed away,” and your authentic self be revealed.
And just like with the New Year, invite new beginnings to open in your yoga practice because "without practice, nothing can be achieved."
