Congratulations angelaandiorio for winning Day 1 of our 7-Day Social Media Challenge! Angela won an author-signed copy of "Dharma then Moksha: the Untold Story of Swami Kripalu" by Richard Faulds. 

It's not too late to participate in the challenge! Details, topics, and schedule can be found here: https://pranakriya.com/social-media-challenge

Today is Day 4...
Topic: The Answer is Love 

What does this mean to you and how do you take this out into the world as a teacher, practitioner and human being? Choose any or all of the teaching to reflect upon…

Or, if metta meditiation/lovingkindness is in your practice, talk about what it is, where you learned it, how you practiced it and what it does for you. Do you teach it? Offer an opportunity for others to learn to practice this too.

Love is the answer to every question.
Love is the response to every situation. 
Deep loving kindness to yourself. 
Deep loving kindness to others.
That is the practice.
That is the only practice necessary.
All other practices are bells and chimes
And can be distractions from the practice of Love. 
Sashana, pranayama, and meditation are practices to strengthen your ability to listen to your heart.
These practices create ease around the practice of Love,
But every other practice must be based on Love and loving compassion and rooted in ahimsa - in non-harming.
Just listen, just practice - Be free to let your heart shine and grow.
Relax into the goodness and the Love.
Relax into and accept the goodness that you are.
