Yoga as Practice of Centering
Full Yoga Immersion- June 18-20th
Asana wakes- shakes a life force within us- we feel it! We become seated within ourself. It is this life force that can begins to shape our living.
Victor Frankl ‘Man’s Search for Meaning’ – talks about the meaning of life?
“I doubt whether a doctor can answer this question in general terms. For the meaning of life differs from man to man, from day to day and from hour to hour. What matters, therefore, is not the meaning of life in general but rather the specific meaning of a person’s life at a given moment. To put the question in general terms would be comparable to the question posed to a chess champion: “Tell me, Master, what is the best move in the world?” There simply is no such thing as the best or even a good move apart from a particular situation in a game and the particular personality of one’s opponent. The same holds for human existence. One should not search for an abstract meaning of life. Everyone has his own specific vocation or mission in life to carry out a concrete assignment which demands fulfillment. Therein he cannot be replaced, nor can his life be repeated. Thus, everyone’s task is as unique as is his specific opportunity to implement it.”
― Viktor E. Frankl, Man’s Search for Meaning
The yogic term for this is DHAMA-what is my very particular job to do in this life?
Friday 5- 7pm Breath. By learning to breathe we find a quieter mind, so we beginning to ‘cultivate’ ourselves. This was a word BKS Iyengar used in describing the yoga journey.
Saturday 8 -11am Asana class
Asana- frees the body and mind. By practicing asana we experience a concrete knowledge of ourselves- thus learning to contain the parts of ourself that over work, and liberating what is stuck. Thus is the wisdom of allinment, both inner and outer.
