This month is Guru Purnima, the time we remember all great Gurus. Unlike popular culture, to be a guru is to be a teacher beyond one’s self, transmitting that which is divine, everlasting knowledge.
We have all been touched by Mr Iyengar, whether we have received his teachings of yoga directly or through his certified teachers. I hear stories illustrating the impact of these teachings on a weekly basis. Let us remember how blessed we are to be living on the earth at the same time as him.
The best way to send Yogacharya Iyengar thanks is through practice. Take advantage of the July Challenge and Open Practice this month to allocate extra time to your yoga practice.
