Ashtanga Yoga takes time! David here tells of what he heard in conference yesterday. I wonder. Does this make ashtanguis "pirates"?
Pirate Yoga. Can almost see the t-shirt!
Here is David's full post.
Some insights coming from Twitter-land about what was discussed in the conference also come from Owl:
One student is coming to me, my shoulder is paining. Yes OK; now you know you have a shoulder! [Healing through yoga] is a process. -Sharath
Between the 2 poles of life and death, we act so crazy. We try to own everything! We own nothing. Not even this body do we own. -Sharath, paraphrase
We don't own anything! We are mere renters in this planet, here for the ephemeral few years, perhaps a 100, likely less. Might be good to use them wisely with "health, and a peaceful mind" as Krishnamacharya advised.
