from Stephen Cope's Yoga and the Quest for the True Self (one of my current reads):
"Yogic teaching says that we have to learn gradually to tolerate sensation and feelings to the physical body, and thoughts in the mind, without reacting to them by either holding or pushing away. Craving and aversion ... roil the body-mind and create a kind of white noise in the system that obscures seeing clearly. For this reason, the development of a compassionate, grounded, centered, continuous and abiding sense of self is at the core of yogic practice."
If not today, tomorrow.
