Guest guest Posted August 30, 2000 Report Share Posted August 30, 2000 It just goes to show you how few people are really ready to receive the gift of Ashtanga Yoga.<br><br>I am saddened, hurt, disgusted but most of all disappointed on the turn of discussion to:<br><br>--bizarre claims of molestation and groping<br>--extending this to disrespectful remarks about Guruji's angelic grandson.<br>--statements that people are disappointed because they did not get their money's worth of postures (greed)<br>--gossipping about the tragedy that befell Guruji's son.<br><br><br>What sort of disrespect is next? Conjecture about whether Ama (Guruji's blessed late wife) stole a mango from the open market?<br><br>It saddens me that Ashtanga has been over-taught and shared with so many that are not worthy. This, I am afraid is the sorry result.<br><br>At least I know that most of the naysayers will be onto their next fad in a year or two. Tai bo, kick boxing, pilates, or something new; and those that have been blessed to study with Guruji with an open heart will continue in their quiet practice.<br><br>Indeed, a book we all read in highschool best describes the degeneration of our culture and our little chat board: William Golding's Lord of the Flies.<br><br>With a heavy heart and unable to employ any of my characteristic sarcasm or wit I am <br><br>Senor Pinche Wey <br><br>In all seriousness, I believe that such posts could only be the work of a villain like Thom Bender Birch.
