That's Karma Yoga-Yo
"The performance of actions dwelling in union with the Divine, removing attachment and remaining balanced ever in success and failure." Yesterday at Ali's class she was talking about a book called "The New Earth." From what she was saying, the book is basically about Karma Yoga. Letting the action pass through you...
So I have tons of shit to do and am trying to do it via Karma yoga. Not getting too attached to the process or to the end result, just doing it and taking pleasure in the fact that there is enjoyment in just performing a task. Atleast that is what I am trying to convince myself of.
On particularly frustrating days I try to REALLY ingrain these thoughts in my head, just go through it and appreciate the experience... just let it pass. Funny how at the restaurant where I work I need to put this in practice practically every second. The chef there can be ridiculous. He is a childish ego maniac. When he gets stressed he'll say "you fucking bitch, shit fucking bitch... mother fucker..." to all of the servers. Ok, except for one of them, the only male server. And of course he never says anything to him. He'll also call his (female) sous chefs mo fos too. How pathetic. Ok, hello, are you a pre pubescent dilinquent child? yes, I guess so. Won't be missing that job. (I am going to quit when we go on vacation) YIPPEE. The money isn't worth it. I need to get a better serving job when I get back in July. I hope to have two jobs in July, I'll be teaching ESL and hopefully there no one will be calling me a mother fucking bitch. Atleast if they do I can give them an F.
