Practice Resurrection

If Easter and Passover are mere myths and fairy tales, then what use are they? But if they are real, then I shall practice Easter each morning at dawn. The Resurrection of the Body shall be my daily discipline. I shall make the Passover my path: from the realm of bondage, through the desert of purification, to a new land within the heart, flowing with milk and honey. These are mysteries of Presence, facts of direct experience, not only in Spirit but in every particle of flesh.
The effortless resonance of the mantra, vibrating as subtle sound through the nervous system, is the incarnation of the Logos, the Word made flesh. 
The techniques of yoga bring the Resurrection of the body. 
In both the Hebrew and Greek books of the Bible, the word for Spirit is precisely the same as the word for Breath: ruach in Hebrew, pneuma in Greek. The invocation of the Holy Spirit is the Holy Breath of mindfulness meditation, conscious breathing. The chrism or anointing of Christ-Consciousness is the descent of the Holy Breath in the practice of sudarshan kriya.
