Went to the 8 a.m. Children’s Sunday morning class at the Institute. Abby, Guruji’s granddaughter, taught a 15 min. class of sun salutations and then we all watched a video from the children’s performance of a few weeks ago. There were about 50 children in attendance this morning, all eager and excited about practicing yoga and then later, seeing themselves on the big video screen. It was great seeing all the giggly kids in the highly revered asana room.
Afterwards, Sandra and I went to Laxmi Road. This is a downtown shopping area that has the old mixed with the new. You can see the backs of some of the auto rickshaws that we use to get around town. I loved some of the old decaying building on Laxmi Rd. They reminded me of Richard Serra sculpture. The gal with the cell phone was waiting for her garlands. Garlands are used to commemorate many occasions here in India.
After that we went to the Koregan Park area to check out the OSHO compound (famous Rajneesh meditation “resort”). We had juice and a muffin at the infamous German Bakery and walked around with all the scarlet draped people. Interestingly enough, I was wearing my burgundy wrap and it looked like I could have been one of them (OSHO).
Also, I think its still Feb. 4th for you all: Happy Birthday Dennis!
