DURUPANG, TIMAPANG

This is a cleansing meditation, which I came across in a book by Lilian Too, a dedicated Buddhist.  It means that as you dust and remove stains in the room, think of your anger, attachment and ignorance being erased, disappearing.  Stains are subtle defilements that cause that cause blocks in your life, wipe them away daily.

Yoga is not a religion, but it directs us towards a healthy way of living and so we take good advice and good practices from wherever we find them  And it has its own Kriyas, (cleansing practices) but chanting Durupang, Timapang as we do the cleaning seems a good, simple way of tackling anger, attachment and ignorance - reminding ouselves that if they are allowed to breed in us, they can do us irreparable harm  So - "Durupang, Timapang" and sweep them away.

Namaste - Brenda
