Finding Stillness

Last week in Grapevine, I noticed a small quotation by the cash register... it was a quote from Tehillim (46:11)that I had not really paid attention to before but was so excited to discover: The quote was in English and I loved the translation,'Be still and know that I am Hashem."
The Hebrew is:
הַרְפּוּ וּדְעוּ כִּי אָנֹכִי אֱלֹהִים
What a great quote for Tiferet Movement!
During class this past Thursday  we used this pasuk as a new  chant or "niggun" and as something upon which to contemplate and meditate... Rivkie  translated the first word as "let go"... which also works so wonderfully...
I remember reading in Erich Schiffman's book that Yoga is the art of Moving into stillness....
