In August of 2008 I went through the life changing experience
of completing the Dharma Mittra 200 hour Life of a Yogi teacher
training course. I have already begun teaching classes privately
and wherever I am as karma yoga for no charge. What I liked so
much about this training was it that emphasized the spritual side
of yoga first. The asana physical practice is used as a gateway
to achieve the ceasing of the chattering of the mind stuff
(citta chatter) in order to achieve union with the divine Self
that lives internally in the space to the right of the physical
heart. This Atman Self is what we carry with us from incarnation
to incarnation. It will never leave us. When you and I are in this
place of Atman we say Namaste denoting that then there is only one
of us. Here I am in one of my most favorite poses
Pinchamayarasana
(forearm balance) during the training. Here I am at my graduation
ceremony
on October 11, 2008 being presented my certificate by Dharma
Mittra.
