A gate in the middle of nowhere

Yoga is a gate.

Not one that has value of itself. It existss due to ignorance, to a mistake.

Useful things have no intrinsic value, the real purpose is to fill the gap, and the gap is illusory, so it is yoga.

Who cares how fancy is the gate, its only purpose is to bring you out and ultimately you were never in. So it is the value of yoga.

It is a trick, like when you tell a kid not to enter the room because the old bad man is inside. There is no bad man, you just want to keep the kid out of the room and so you trick him. Yoga is a trick.

Who cares how elaborated is the trick, it just have to be effective.

To make a gate three poles are enough. Add ornaments only if you are on the mood for it otherwise just keep quiet and plain smile, capture the attention and let them in.

So simple? Oh yes! How complicate could it be when you just have to pass from one room to the same one?
It would be enough to tell, you are there already! or even just remain silent.

That is yoga.
