Affirm your Spiritual Qualities
The aspiring yogi should always bear in mind, when he feels angry,

"That is not me!"

When his self possession is being overpowered by lust or greed, he should say to himself,
"That is not me!"
When hatred tries to obscure his real nature with a mask of ugly emotion, he should forcefully disassociate himself from it:

"That is not me!"

He learns to shut the doors of his consciousness against all undesirable visitors seeking lodging within.

And whenever that devotee has been used or abused by others, and yet he feels within a stirring of the Holy Spirit of forgiveness and love, he can then affirm with conviction,

"That is me! That is my real nature!"

Yoga meditation is the process of cultivating and stabilizing the awareness of ones real nature, through definite spiritual and psycho-physical methods and laws by which the narrow ego, the flawed hereditary human consciousness, is displaced by the consciousness of the soul.
