When I first started writing about yoga, I was concerned that I couldn’t do a pose perfectly. I still couldn’t do a perfect pose but that was okay. Even without perfection, everytime I did a pose, it was new, the same pose, but always fresh. While doing the poses in class, I didn’t notice the passing of time. In fact, most of the yoga classes passed without awareness of time. I wondered if I was in a low level of Samadhi. I was there, my mind was present, and the object, the yoga pose. I wasn’t think of anything.

Last week, I had taken off a week. I went on Thursday. I noticed that I didn’t lose any flexibility; however, the mental stability was weakened, definitely. It would be a shame to lose any ground on self development. I liked the changes since I started yoga. I noticed that the changes bring out a better person for myself and those around me.
Svadhayay. I memorized the first five verses of the yoga sutras of Patanjali, five more to go.
