Guest guest Posted August 4, 2000 Report Share Posted August 4, 2000 Dirk<br><br>I have heard those kind of stories too, and they made me nervous about going to Mysore.<br><br>I already had a fairly bad knee injury when I went to Gurui's workshop in NY. This wasn't caused by any adjustments from teachers - I had brought it upon myself by being too attached to being able to do the outward form of padmanasana postures. So I was quite worried about Guruji adjusting me on the injured side, which he did several times.<br><br>My actual experience was that he was very sensitive and gentle with my injury. On a couple of days there were almost total beginners near me n the workshop, and he was also very gentle and patient with those people (I guess he probably doesn't get to see many beginners in Mysore and he seemed to really enjoy spending time with them).<br><br>Maybe he's different at home, or with more advanced students. But having experienced The Man in action I have no fears now about going to Mysore. I hope to make it over there next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
