“The yoga pose is not the goal. Becoming flexible or standing on your hands is not the goal. The goal is to create space where you were once stuck. To unveil layers of protection you have built around your heart. To appreciate your body and become aware of the mind and the noise it creates. To make peace with who you are. The goal is to love...well, you! Shift your focus and your heart will grow.”
Geeta Iyengar

TUESDAY 7PM TRINITY CHURCH

As animals, we walk the earth. As bearers of divine essence, we are among the stars. As human beings, we are caught in the middle, seeking to reconcile the paradox of how to make our way upon earth while striving for something more permanent and more profound.
B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on Life

Let’s twist again …. the organs are compressed during a twist, pushing out blood filled with metabolic by-products and toxins. When we release the twist, fresh blood flows in, carrying oxygen and the building blocks for tissue healing. So from the physiological standpoint, twists stimulate circulation and have a cleansing and refreshing effect on the torso organs and associated glands.

IYENGAR YOGA • TUESDAY 7 PM
Trinity Methodist Church Rainsford Road

According to Sri Vinoba Bhave, the Latin word Omne and the Sanskrit word Aum are both derived from the same root meaning all and both words convey the concepts of omniscience, omnipresence and omnipotence. Another word for Aum is pranava, which is derived from the root nu meaning to praise, to which is added the prefix pra denoting superiority. The word, therefore, means the best praise or the best prayer.
The symbol aum is composed of three syllables, namely the letters A, U, M, and when written it has a crescent and a dot on its top. A few instances of the various interpretations given to it may be mentioned here to convey its meaning…
The letter A symbolizes the conscious or waking state, the letter U the dream-state and the letter M the dreamless sleep state of the mind and spirit. The entire symbol, together with the crescent and the dot, stands for the fourth state, which combines all these states and transcends them. This is the state of samadhi.
The letters A, U and M symbolise respectively speech, the mind and the breath of life, while the entire symbol stands for the living spirit, which is but a portion of the divine spirit.
The three letters also represent the dimensions of length, breadth and depth, while the entire symbol represents Divinity, which is beyond the limitations of shape and form.
The letters A, U and M symbolise the absence of desire, fear and anger, while the whole symbol stands for the perfect man, one whose wisdom is firmly established in the divine.
They represent the three genders, masculine, feminine and neuter, while the entire symbol represents all creation together with the Creator.
The letters respond to the three tenses – past, present and future – while the entire symbol stands for the Creator, who transcends the limitations of time.
They also stand for the teaching imparted by the mother, the father and the Guru respectively. The entire symbol represents Brahma Vidya, the knowledge of the Self, the teaching which is imperishable.
The A, U and M depict the three stages of yogic discipline, namely asana, pranayama and pratyahara.
