Strictlys Hamza Yassin breaks down in tears on launch show



Strictly Come Dancing's 2022 winner Hamza Yassin returned to screens on Saturday (September 16) night, but the comeback to the dancefloor proved to be an emotional experience.

He came back to the BBC dance competition for its season 21 launch show and reunited with his professional partner Jowita Przystal.

Hamza performed a fun-filled dance routine with Jowita, but shortly afterwards he broke down in tears.

Hamza was overcome with emotion as he reflected on his 2022 Strictly journey, which of course ended with him lifting the Glitterball Trophy.

"It's the best thing I've ever done," he told host Tess Daly. "I've been all over the world and Strictly has just been...

"Why am I crying?" Hamza exclaimed as he became tearful. "Strictly has been one of the best things I've ever done.

"To share this stage with this lovely young lady [Jowita], the things that she's taught me in life. Strictly, Jowita, thank you so much. Cheers everybody."

Chatting further to Hamza following his performance, Tess asked if he had any advice he could offer up to the star-studded cast of Strictly 2023.

"Strap in" he remarked. "Ice baths, lots of food, rest, and listen to your partner."

As well as seeing Hamza and Jowita take to the stage, the launch show featured several group dances from the Strictly professionals, a special message for absent dancer Amy Dowden, and a tribute to the late Len Goodman.

Throughout the show, viewers also saw each celebrity contestant get paired up with their pro partner.

Strictly Come Dancing airs weekends on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.

Osho Quotes on Meditation

Osho Quotes on Meditation If tea-drinking can become a meditation, then anything can become a meditation — cooking or washing your clothes, any activity can be transformed into meditation. And the real sannyasin, the real seeker, will transform all his acts into meditation. Only then, when meditation spreads over all your life, not only when you are awake in the day — slowly slowly it starts penetrating and permeating your being in sleep too — when it becomes just part of you, like breathing, like your heartbeat, then, only, have you attained to the discipline, to the essential discipline of Zen. Meditation means: drop all thoughts, drop all ideologies, drop all knowledge. Drop the mind itself. The mind is constantly talking. If the inner talk can drop even for a single moment you will be able to have a glimpse of no-mind. That’s what meditation is all about. The state of no-mind is the right state. It is your state. Millions of people miss meditation because meditation has taken on...

OSHO on Ramakrishna

Sri Ramakrishna Enlightenment Osho : There is an episode in Ramakrishna’s life.... For his whole life he had been worshipping Mother Kali, But at the very end he began to feel,”It is duality; the experience of oneness has still not happened. It is lovely, delightful, but two still remains two.” Someone loves a woman, someone loves money, someone politics; he loved Ma Kali – but love still was divided in two. Still the ultimate nonduality hadn’t happened and he was in anguish. He began looking out for a nondualist, a Vedantist – for Some person to come who could show him the path. A Paramahansa named Totapuri was passing. Ramakrishna invited him to stop with him and asked, ”Help me to have darshan of the one.” Totapuri said, ”What’s difficult in that? You believe there are two, so there are two. Drop the belief!” Ramakrishna replied, ”But dropping this belief is very difficult – I have lived with it my whole life. When I close my eyes the image of Kali is standing there. I drown ...
