Through the practices, we bring a meditated person to the world.
This is not a panacea for the ills of the world or for our problems.
But there is no doubt that regular practice is good for our personal well-being and for those around us. Yoga and meditation can help buffer the headaches of this world by tempering our experiences and responses to them. The practices can help surgically remove impediments to our joy and love and help us lead healthier lives.
No, certainly not a cure-all, but the practices are very good medicine!
