How inner filters adjust, block or distort true flow ⁉️

Hi Vimal,
Whatever happens here in your journey, surely we can say: That it's already becoming wonderfully rich and revealing 🙏
And to be clear, if I challenge you on anything, that doesn't mean I'm pointing in a particular direction - I am not. That is entirely up to you, in your own sovereign expression.
The point being, that whenever any of these situations present, where there's uncertainty about how to go forward in key life's choices (such as how you work to sustain yourself), then it's what gets uncovered that really counts - not the end outcome. I'm sure you agree.
So, allow me to point out what I feel, are some real gems that might be worth exploring in what you present about the situation...
- You said 'you'd be expected to put in 3hrs of yoga teaching every single day - and that this feels like work'. I'm virtually certain, that there are many people out there in the Openhand community (and millions of awakened people), who are in the more 'matrix' world, often working 9,10 or 11 hours a day (and even longer) just to make ends meet, who would absolutely chew your arm off for that possibility!!
To me, for example, here at Openhand, where I get up on average at 3am every single day to work, and complete around about 6pm, I would find what you're describing an absolute blissful vacation! In fact, can you please provide their phone number and contact details - maybe I'll go and live there and share Openhand from there (I'm only partially kidding!!). (I actually feel there probably are some people out there who would be seriously interested).
- You say: "I'm not very skilled at yoga." But isn't the true meaning of yoga divine union? It's certainly NOT just about postures. Yes, that's maybe what the employers think they want - someone just to guide postures. But aren't you pre-judging both them and the situation? What if you (humbly) shared your view on yoga, and what you might then have to offer, which is different from the run-of-the-mill, and much more intriguing and beneficial? Maybe they'd be excited by that - the point is, you don't know until you explore.
- You say you'd have to work every single day. What if you ask for a day off each week, and put in some extra hours on the other days?
To reiterate, I'm NOT suggesting you take the job (assuming it was offered). And to anyone else also reading, that is NOT the Openhand way. The Openhand way is to explore into a particular situation that presents, then to inquire - what distortions, blockages and judgments are shaping how I approach the situation? As you confront and strip off these layers, then the landscape (the quantum field) bends around the inquiry and reshapes according to it. Maybe you'd end up taking that particular job - or maybe the inquiry alone would shape a different possibility.
My sense here, Vimal is (that you could explore - if you felt to) how might you 'negotiate' with the world to have it respect your soul's wishes. But do be clear, that they are true soul wishes, and not just filters that are distorting and blocking.
With all love and respect
<<< Open 🙏
