1. To re-state, the Bhagavad Gita is the story of our life. Our battle with ourselves to do our best, to do our dharma.
2. Watch Bagger Vance (the movie). If you've read the Gita, you will see correlations -- even in the names of the characters. (and, little things like == 18 holes on a golf course / 18 chapters in the book). There are energetic ties everywhere!
3. Our battle on our yoga mats is more like a dance -- we do it with love and respect. When we cooperate artistically with spirit, our poses reflect that beauty.
4. On the first full moon of each August, remember it's Rakhi Day -- a day to offer protection and love to those closest to us. You can do it by offering a bracelet made of string or it can be a spiritual offering.
5. There are 3 types of teachers:
- Pundit -- knows the technical knowledge
- Acharya - technically has the knowledge; also has wisdom and is able to inspire
- Guru - all of the above, plus has passed levels of attainment; additionally, has tremendous psychic powers.
6. When I work with a student therapeutically for a neck issue; I must start at the shoulders (perhaps even the hips). Interesting how one part being off can affect so much else in the body.
7. The best teachers lead students to find their own best teacher within themselves.
Got to type some notes.
Enjoy your Friday,
