you’re absolutely right Most Precious Yogini B!
your feeble teacher dropped the ball on the November full moon which is still quite resplendent, if not quite full, in her lofty, cold dance above our incarnational drama…so, here you go: the Full Beaver Moon – November
S(om)etimes, Vishnu just works His beauty through feeble ilg’s camera in Ways that i just GOTTA share it with my Precious Sangha…got this shot at last night’s CycleCross race in Durango, about a stone’s throw away from my casa…
still walking the talk…you can tell it’s ilg’s season! i just get fired up in Autumn and my training stats and sadhana reflects it! NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT to replicate my physical training stats and low caloric intake…
note: do not attempt to accomplish the techniques below without guidance; this is written to an advanced yogini…a yoga teacher who leads many retreats…if, for you, my counsel seems lofty, it is no different than say, racing Imogene Pass as hard as you can, yet, you look up the mountain and there are runners miles ahead of you…i have many students. each on various Levels. not better, just different. the important point is to keep moving Higher and Inward. – may this Teaching help you and do not forward. – ec
sure…
ilg may have done what it took to uphill ski 2,250′ in 60 minutes only to descend in 15 minutes this morning upon the Brahmanically Graced snows this morning…yet dat ain’t the ‘Thing”…here is the REAL…the WHOLISTIC thing…
“Dear Coach,
When doing your hp prop workout it is very obvious that I have strength imbalances ( right side stronger than the left). I notice it more in my stomach and back. It is much easier for me to hit my right elbow to my left knee while doing sit-ups than it is to hit my left elbow to my right knee. Do you have any advice to help take care of these imbalances?
Peace by the journey,
Matthew
Coach Responds:
” Meditation is bringing the mind back home, and this is first achieved through the practice of…”
a lot of the times, when the warrior sadhaka (spiritual aspirant) comes to grips with Vairagya (non-passion/non attachment) they mistakenly think that it is necessary to kill desire…on the contrary, ilg is coaching you not to kill them, not to quell them; however, we must make our desires and Attachments go the Divine Way.
that is all…keep it simple, sweat often, sit still more than you sweat,
and all-Ways stay tuned to this Channel…
keeping you centered, strong, supple, and full of spirit since 1982…
head bowed….
