Guest guest Posted January 25, 2002 Report Share Posted January 25, 2002 Dear Sharon and David:<br><br>I just read your letter which, you were too self important to post yourself but had your lackey Amy post.<br><br>How dare you quote Guruji to support the bullying of your students and your fiasco that has already had repercussions in the yoga community and has further damaged your shaky reputations.<br><br>Guruji also says not to mix methods. He also has the ability to certify teachers to teach Ashtanga teachers. Since when have you appointed yourselves as judges who may deem such teachers unworthy?<br><br>It is for good reason that your students are questioning your integrity and loyalty to your supposed guru, Patthabi Jois.<br><br>You have no integrity. Furthermore you have probably broken the law. I for one would be more than happy to finance the retention of a labor lawyer for the student/teachers at your school that you forced to resign from you pathetic school. (By the way you have probably done them a great favor from what I have observed of your diabolical behavior and total lack of commitment to the yogi path)<br><br>Further to the loyalty to your supposed guru, where else are these students supposed to study ashtanga? I saw you and David practice at Guruji's workshop, it is not just old age but a lack of practice. Since you are both so enamored of your own watered down hodge podge of borrowing from other systems such as Sivananda and ashtanga, you seem to be able to practice neither one yourselves. So, since David, a once certified teacher but now only certifiably insane is in no position to teach, who is supposed to teach your advanced students?<br><br>Saying that Christopher "resigned" is like the Chinese saying that the Tibetan monks recanted their Buddhism. Your alternative was one of a tyrant and not a choice at all. Why should students that are practitioners of Ashtanga declare allegiance to two star struck freaks like the likes of you rather than to Patthabi Jois?<br><br>I have seen students of David's bow down and kiss his filthy feet. I know you have such pretensions as some sort of divine beings but your actions here have proven you to be selfish, paranoid, manipulative, evil and uninterested in ashtanga yoga except insofar at the latter may further your business interests.<br><br>"Jivamukti Ashtanga"??!?!? There you go again. Since when have you branded the blessed practice that has been delivered through the ages to Krishnamacharya and Patthabi Jois to those lucky enough to practice today.<br><br>The incredible insolence of your label is further evidence of you total self-delusion and arrogance. What fools you are.<br><br>"...Perhaps, they lacked confidence and maturity" So you are attributing the exiting ashtanga teachers reasons for leaving on their lack of confidence and maturity? Give me a break. They left as many others have because you are controlling freaks and megalomaniacs whose egos are totally out of control. You have lost touch with the meaning of yoga in favor of sucking up to your celebrity students, photo ops and ego gratifying workshops.
