So, unlike with Kino, the temptation to stop and gawk is a lot less :-) <br /><br />P.S. SKPJ: "Old man, stiff man, weak man, sick man, all can take practice. Only lazy man cannot take practice."<br /><br />Something tells me that SKPJ would also include stupid people among those who can take practice :-)<br /><br />Nobelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00655577410721103577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449952380128375575.post-61287026075230927382013-05-03T09:12:25.431-07:002013-05-03T09:12:25.431-07:00Hey there. Got the idea of using the Sharath video...Hey there. Got the idea of using the Sharath video as a metronome for home practice from reading you over the years, by the way, so thanks for the tip. I also have Kino's video, and she also keeps it moving. My only problem is that I am so accustomed to practicing at home alone that it is often hard / distracting to try to pay attention to someone else's count - no matter who it is. (Also they are both fantastic to watch and so I have to position the video at a point where I can only hear and am not tempted to just stop and watch). I'm going to have to work on all that if I ever intend to practice in Mysore, and I do so intend. PS - I'm feeling a little less sheepish or uncool about putting together a Yoga and Running workshop last year after reading your even more recent post on the smart people thing. Wow. "Yoga is for everybody." - SKPJ I feel the real truth of this statement more and more every day. kristenhttp://www.shantifayetteville.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449952380128375575.post-87031275147780851082013-05-02T13:18:01.965-07:002013-05-02T13:18:01.965-07:00Maybe it does something to do with the movements a...Maybe it does something to do with the movements and positions of the planets...Nobelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00655577410721103577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449952380128375575.post-5092046021223735342013-05-02T12:48:09.154-07:002013-05-02T12:48:09.154-07:00Thank you, it is spooky how similar our practice, ...Thank you, it is spooky how similar our practice, and our feelings are, especially the lack luster/tired feeling.
