The real truth about Astanga yoga

[Guest guest]

Yes, I'm intrigued too. Do you really have to draw it out over 5 years?

<<Do you really have to draw it out over 5

years?>><br><br>"have to" vs "should"<br><br>when he was aked this at

carlsbad, guruji told us one should practice the first

series for 5 yrs before moving on to the second series.

the goal is not just achieving the bending but the

cleansing/healing of the series. <br><br>now, how many of the

students he has taught over the years did only that? i

would guess none, or maybe a very few, but i really

don't know. <br> <br>maybe the senior, lar, guy or

takeitup, etal, have advice on this

soory , my error for not checking back to mr

schultz's message. i saw the " 5 yrs" thing and thought

your message was about the rate of progression--which

is something i had wondered about. i guess i just

assumed, if i was curious about it, then of course, you

must have been too.<br><br>i'll be more thorough

(thorough--that's one of the stupidist looking words in our

language) next time

"Real" ization knows no time. While it my take

Senor Schultz another five years to post a truth or all

of his yoga insights, I'm not sure of any relevance.

The practice will do many things for many people.

Work as hard as your desire will let you and watch the

life/universe understandings come. They may flow today or

later, but I doubt anyone is going to teach you real

truths on the net. Take it up daily and keep mula

bandha, all is definitely coming, and it will be coming

thanks to your own practice, not because of a promise

from another.<br><br>Yours in yoga,
