However, they seldom become aware that true peace is found within, by silencing the whirlwind of thoughts and living in the present moment. Along with meditation, yoga is one of the most effective tools to appease a disturbed mind. In fact, after a series of body postures, the mind is quieter and prepared for meditation.<br /><br />kovaisky yogahttp://www.kovaiskyyoga.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449952380128375575.post-83656520804456018972018-03-26T11:31:31.575-07:002018-03-26T11:31:31.575-07:00Hi!

The sincerity in practice by the Yogi's, has translated to sincerity in communicating what you all feel. Wonderful. Please do visit Mysore, and it's one of the best places in India.<br /><br />I run a daily update on Mysore through Social Media (bit.ly/MysoreDaily ), and a lot of which goes in is about yoga and ayurveda. Some great videos, pictures and blogs by ashtangis are generally part of it. <br /><br />Mysore, I feel is great not just for Yoga, but also to a lesser extent for Ayurveda. Yoga and Ayurveda are two sides of the same coin, according to some. There are some great places to experience Ayurveda, like Indus Valley Ayurvedic Centre. Please feel free to get in touch with me if you are in Mysore and are stuck. I have been a journalist and my wife is a Doctor. We would be glad to help.

I read your comment on going to Mysore and that Sharat is the only one that knows the six series. As a young practitioner, I wouldn’t expect you to know the history of this practice. The early practitioners that have studied with Professor K. P. Jois for 30 years or more learned all the six series in four segments, at the time they were called Primaries, Intermediates, Advanced A and B (3, 4, 5, 6 series). In the very early eighties I had the rare opportunity to study in private with Guru Ji for 3months. The practice was approximately four hours to do A or B series which is now as previously mentioned third, fourth filth and sixth series. The system did continue to change from the time he wrote the first syllabus.Anthony Lopedotahttp://www.ashtangayogatherapy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449952380128375575.post-26136204936843450972012-01-05T08:43:11.949-08:002012-01-05T08:43:11.949-08:00Thanks, confluencecountdown.

My own life circumstances prevent me from going right now, but I will get there some day. I think your explanations about Mysore being "the MIT of yoga" and "studying with Jesus" are very creative: My sense is that it is probably a little of both :-) And yes, you are more than welcome to share this post on your blog (nice blog, btw). <br /><br />Thanks for sharing, Jules. I hope you save up the money you need soon. On some level, I think that the fact that your lived ones are not yet able to see the importance of what you are doing is another indication of why what you are trying to do is important and life-changing; it goes way outside the box of conventional thinking ("What?! You are saving up all this money so you can go to some obscure little city in India, live in Spartan conditions, and wake up super early every morning and get bent into funny shapes by this Indian dude? Where's the logic in that?"). But that's why it's worth doing.

It's answers like this that spur me on to keep saving, even though my loved ones don't understand it, their response is 'but your teacher is authorized by the founder and you've studied with other authorized teachers so why spend all the money?' I'm going to direct them here the next time they say that.

I've tried to explain to my dear ones how important it is for me to go and the only relation that I could make to put it in the simplest terms is "it's kinda like the MIT of yoga" or something along the lines of "it's like studying with Jesus", and still I don't think I came close enough to painting a clear picture. But Kino's answer beautifully explains what I could not put in words. Thank you for sharing this, Kino has been an inspiration to me ever since I got on the path of Ashtanga Yoga.
