What a beginner, and I think also advanced

pratitioners of ashtanga ( or any joga) should do is to listen

to his/her body. Its often wiser than ego. Pain is a

signal: you are going too far, don´t overdo it! I´ve done

Hatha-yoga some 20 years ago, then forgot it and now when

I´m 60, I started Ashtanga. Gradually it´s getting

easier, still my hips and knees are stiff, but I listen

to the pain, too much of it may hurt my body. I

attended Guruji´s sessions twice and just skipped over or

modified those asanas I couldn´t do. But still, it was an

encouraging experience, I didn´t feel myself a failurer. I

think I have stamina (sisu), but I´m not reckless. I do

my practice and wait: all is coming, I hope.
