Re: missy pinky's comment on achieving samadhi

one step at a time<br>Quote from KPJ via David

Life:<br>"If no calm and focus come from the 1st series, then

we try the 2nd. If that doesn't work, we try the 3rd

that quote just isn't true. Guruji is very clear

that pranyama and meditation are only practiced after

completing Advanced A and B (3rd and 4th series). Primary

just deals with disease, Intermediate works on the

nervous system, Advaced steadies the mind and then you

can work on your Nirvana. <br><br>There are no

spiritually get rich quick schemes.<br><br>Cheers

the peak of yoga experience is Samadhi -

bliss.<br><br>Yes, some are born through the work of previous

incarnations to experience these things without effort in this

lifetime.<br><br>A story Eric Shiffman tells in his book "Moving

into Stillness" touched me:<br><br>He tells how he

studied meditation with Krishnamurti for a lengthy period

of time without great success. Then after taking his

first Hatha Yoga class with BKS Iyengar he fell into a

blissful Shavasana. " You see, said BKS - in one session I

showed you Samadhi" *<br><br>*apologies to Eric S and

BKS for my paraphrazing.

besides being the root-teacher teacher of Sri K.

Pattabhi Jois, B.K.S Iyengar, and Desicachar, I think

Krishnamacaria also instructed e.g. Jiddu Krishnamurti, H.H. the

Dalai Lama, and many others; is it correct that he held

and passed on transmission lineages from Tibetan

Vajrayana, Ayurveda, and Chinese Taoist Yogic lineages to

some students? - Can someone recommend sources about

details in these matters?
