"What we are and what we leave as a legacy." - Marco M.

"What we are and what we leave as a legacy." - Marco M.

"Spontaneity." - Marco M.

Being spontaneous is increasingly mistaken with being at the mercy of one's own biological machine, i.e. obeying, without autonomous consciousness, to demands induced on minds/bodies tamed by advertising and mass manipulation.

"The Noble Beast." - Marco M.

This neo-archetype created by Jack Donovan, which I rework here in a personal way, represents what the awakened Being must strive for. The Noble Beast is not the halved man promoted by modern intellectualism, that is, a being forgetful of his own body and animal instincts.

"R@c?sm and awareness." - Marco M.

The current culture, dominated by the "w0ke", is by far the most intolerant ever. Those who authentically appreciate both cultural and racial differences are aware that we are not all the same (the fact that we are not all equal is not an opinion but a natural truth) , although they never judge in a better/worse sense.

"Kali Yuga." - Marco M.

I'm reading several things by René Guénon, an author of the early twentieth century. After an initial period in which he was infatuated with occultism, he became one of the leading European philosophers to integrate and understand Indian thought, thus having a decisive influence on all those who have studied and tried to integrate Eastern studies with Western mentality, including Evola.

"Authentic Human Freedom." - Marco M.

The human being has incredible untapped potential and has instead, just like any other living being, limits that should be respected and used as a great possibility to understand vertical freedom while respecting the limits of horizontal freedom.

"karma Yoga: lecture on freedom." - Marco M.

The contemporary myth of freedom would have us free to choose over everything, going beyond nature itself. To have children when you can't have them naturally, to have no reins and cultural boundaries, to be able to love everyone universally, to choose what gender to be, to stay young, to live forever.

"The Authentic Revolution." - Marco M.

"The Authentic Revolution." - Marco M.

The only real revolution is the inner one. It is not a goal to be reached but a myth towards which to walk. The inner revolution is in the making, it is a removal piece by piece of the illusory veils (maya in Sanskrit) that conceal reality.

"Your Yoga is the only one that matters." - Marco M.

We are finalizing the program of the Bliss Beat Festival and that gave me the idea for this post. We have teachers who propose and would like to use labels that identify a specific style such as: "Iyengar Yoga", "Anusara Yoga", "Rocket Yoga" etc.
