To practise with Equanimity

This is one of the most challenging things I’ve learned to do, for I had no problem throwing myself forward, but to come back over seemed nearly impossible at the beginning. It is like literally jumping into the unknown. Not knowing where my legs are from the ground or if my arms would have enough strength to prevent me from falling.... I could barely lift both feet off the ground more than an inch, and so after the initial excitement wore off, what then followed was a whirlwind of emotions ranging from fear, doubt, frustration, anger, impatience, pain and exhaustion.... I spent weeks expending all my energy...because for some reason, I just HAD to get it. “You need time”, Acharya would often say. And I would think...I don’t have time for patience! I wanted it now..
