Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Not to worry folks, it was just a dream... A perfect blond-haired, muscle-bound man and woman in a huge luxurious bathroom demonstrating a new product on the tv... they apply the product, flex their muscles and go off into an elaborate ordered routine of pseudo-spontaneous kriyas and mudras -- so impressive! It's the first infomercial for the Kundalini, which can now be purchased in a bottle for $39.99, satisfaction guaranteed or your money back! The crass commercialization of the power of the K!! Is it a joke? a parody? Maybe. But then think about what has happened to yoga and tantra after western society got its greedy paws on them...

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 John E., To follow up on your Kundalini snakeoil ad: ever since I took the Yoga Alliance teacher training this winter, I have developed a profound aversion for yoga schools in the US. I have been wondering why--it's getting almost pathological! The only explanation I can think of is that yoga is very sacred to me, and I can't stand the way it has become the new feel-good aerobics for trendy suburbanites. Not to mention the obscene market of yoga trinkets, scented candles, jewellry, apparel, outrageously priced sticky mats, New Age CDs, etc. It's disgusting! I could go on and on forever, but I'll just stop it here.
