"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.
There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we’re liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
My name is Dashama Konah. This name was created by my mother, who was divinely inspired. It means "The Sacred Friend". It is also the name of a Hindu Goddess, Goddess Dashama is the Destroyer of Adversity.
I am a lover of life. Lover of experiences. Interested in learning everything. Constantly growing in all areas. God/ Jah/ The Creator of all- blesses me continuously. Karma proves itself to me time and again. People never cease to amaze me~ I love to travel... anywhere and everywhere. I love meeting new people and learning about their lifestyles. Some of the most memorable experiences have occurred when I was traveling this path by myself; it seems that when we are solo, we can truly be who we want to be and go with the flow.
On the other hand-I love to be around people! I have friends all over the world and am always open to welcoming new people into the conversation that we call life... I've always practiced yoga, since I was a young child. Yoga has been an integral aspect of my life, bringing me to a place that I can find peace in a hectic world and I can be discerning in regards to what I want from this life and what I am here to do...
I've discovered that people come and go from our lives at exactly the moment that is necessary. We learn what we can and become stronger, better individuals because of each other.
I've learned that we are all one, with the universe, and that we create the walls that seperate us and keep us from experiencing love all of the time. In my life, physical health and activity play as much a role as the mental and the spiritual aspects. A balanced life is the only way to live. When one area grows weak, we feel this and it affects everyone around us as well. This is the cause of much of our society's disenchantment with every day life.
Come, join the conversation... you'll never regret it for a moment!

My Interests



Because all we have is THIS MOMENT, repeating itself over and over again.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can relate to the fact that, being human, we are not always perfect beings, but we are all seeking love and happiness in all that we do... fun people who enjoy life with a positive attitude and who would like to live a blissfull, adventurous life!

Let's join forces of light and create a tidal wave of love so huge that this darkness that is overshadowing the world may be lifted and we will truly begin to experience the next Golden Age of Enlightenment.

..

Music:

I love all music. Music has the ability to speak to people at the atomic level and even down to the astral level of their existence. Music picks up where language begins to falter. I love classic or new music that has a positive message and a beat that moves me. I love hearing new sounds and beats.

Movies:



I love funny movies, adventure movies, martial arts and action, love movies, historical movies like Last of the Mohicans, and the Last Samurai...

Television:

The media has the population under control, and tv is a large part of the mass population control that is keeping many people stuck in the rat race existence, always yearning for the newest, best and most recent version of whichever product or service that is popular. It feeds on insecurities, fears, shortcomings, imperfections, and breeds competition, jealousy, and unrealistic self expectations. There is enough research on this topic to fill the Grand Canyon. Get informed and get rid of your tv:) xoxoxoxoxo

Books:


I Love all books! I am currently reading many books at once:) I tend to do that, it keeps me interested! Some of the best and most influential books I've read are: Play of Consciousness by Muktananda, Tao Teh Ching, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, anything by Osho, Deepak Chopra- The Book of Secrets, 7 Spiritual Laws of Success, Soul Love, Life's Greatest Lessons, 20 Things I want my kids to know, Sweat Your Prayers by Gabrielle Roth, Kundalini Tantra, How to Be Like Women of Influence 20 most influential Women of all time, The Baghavad Gita, The Path to Love, Nutritional Healing, Bliss Divine, A Brave New World, Return to Laughter, The Giving Tree, Think and Grow Rich....I'm also writing 3 books. One is called: The American Treadmill Syndrome. The second is called: The Journey; and the Third is an Introduction to Yoga: A Beginners Guide to Starting their Yoga Journey on the Right Foot. You can read this last book by going to my website: http://www.perfect10lifestyle.com and register to receive it. Also I just finished a children's book to be released soon..... xoxooxox

Heroes:

My mother, My Aunt Robyn, Bob Marley,Osho, Ghandi, Swami Sivananda, Krishnamacharya, Patabi Jois, Amma, Swami Satchidananda, Swami Muktananda, Mother Theresa, Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, Ram Das, my friends, anyone who happily gives their time to good causes as a volunteer (karma yoga), happy people, people who are dedicated to their own personal growth and evolution of their consciousness and contributing to the evolution of the human population, and my 3 sisters ....
