The Yoga brought forth by Krishnamacharya, the teacher of the teachers.

The grand cosmic pattering of the intrinsic harmony, indivisible One reality in which everything is happening has been duplicated in and as your whole body. Your body is the indivisible One harmony in and of the cosmos. This is a plain and ordinary fact. Yoga is your participation in that fact. So as a consequence of that fact “do your Yoga”. Not just any yoga…. “your Yoga” with the principles that were held and given in great wisdom culture of Veda (Veda means Truth or Knowledge) and still prevails on this blessed Earth, this cosmic domain of the heart, the one source arising as infinite spherical patterns of nurturing harmonies. Don’t worry if you perceive this or not. Just trust it and do your Yoga. You are in good hands in this universe.

Bible reading

2 Timothy 3:1–5

(1) This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. (2) For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, (3) Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, (4) Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; (5) Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

(King James Version)

God’s Children

Man made the buildings

That reach for the sky

Man made the motor cars

And learned how to drive

But he didn’t make the flowers

And he didn’t make the trees

And he didn’t make you

And he didn’t make me

So he’s got no right

To turn us into machines.

No he’s got no right at all

Because we are all God’s children

And he’s got no right to change us

Oh we gotta go back

We gotta go back

To the way the good Lord made us all.

Don’t want this world to change me

Wanta go back to the way the good Lord made me

Same lungs that he gave me to breathe in

Same eyes he gave me to see him.
