First Sunday: The Beginning.

Nothing much to write about. Prospectus/course structure discussed. Liked one quote by Mrs Bela. She talked about "Within limitation". I think she was referring to (one) meaning of "Yoga/Yogya". Read about a similar thing in Harry's book "Younger Next Year" in which they talk about the qualities of a good Yoga instructor.

Sabir shaikh talked about his perspective of Yoga. He thinks of it as "Integration of personalities" ; integration at physical, mental and social level. At the end of the lecture he talked about the 3 misconception of Yoga namely Yoga being a part of religion (adding that its a religion in itself), Yoga is for Yogic people and Females shouldn't practice Yoga.

In exams a candidate would be judged by how pleasurably he does his Yog. Slackening is another quality preferred which can be enhanced by differential relaxation.
