"you get to the point of spontaneous yoga

described by Amrit Desai and his Guru, where the body

instinctively and effortlessly flows into a series of asanas

with you as the passenger instead of the

driver."<br><br>Omprem, do you know what the preconditions for this

experience are? I've read about it but I've also noticed

that nothing like it is discussed in Ashtanga circles.

I wonder if the Ashtanga approach of adhering to a

specific sequence closes off the possibility of this

occuring. What do Desai's students do to invite this

experience?<br><br>(To whom it may concern, I am fully aware that this

spontaneous yoga is not Ashtanga and that if one were to do

it then one would not be doing

Ashtanga).<br><br>Thanks,<br>EH

EH<br><br>I have very litlle knowledge about the

techniques of Kripalu Yoga. Perhaps someone who has

practiced Kripalu (when Amrit Desai was still head of it)

can answer your question.<br><br>Failing that, a web

search or a visit to your local alternative bookstore

might turn up something from Amrit Desai on attaining

spontaneous yoga. He always characterized this state as very

important.<br><br>Omprem
