Yeah, that Madonna movie is pretty sad. If that's

really her in the movie, she's a lot better at asana

than she is at moviemaking (or music, for that

matter).<br>Sorry you didn't like my message (I guess that's what

you mean to say). Maybe you are misreading it,

though. I asked (a while back) if anyone knew why

supposedly P. Jois says that going to the movies is bad. Got

lots of responses, all of them interesting (to me,

anyway). I was trying to understand better one of them and

give my thoughts responding to it. Far be it from me

to advise anybody here whether to go to the movies,

or not.<br>Over the weekend I finally got "Yoga

Mala", supposedly the source of the anti-movie idea.

(Despite the universal enthusiasm here about this book, I

was resisting for a while -- you know all the books

start to seem the same after a while.) I don't see any

mention of movies at all in there. He does talk about not

going to the "theatre" though, in a surprisingly long

section about preserving "bindu". (Yow! Now there's a

subject that I bet we could really have a fight about!)

Preserving "bindu" pops up again and again in the book.

Jois' ideas about sex and marriage are pretty tough

stuff -- could make even old-school Catholics cringe.

Is everybody out there right in line behind him in

this area?
