Vinyasa Basics: Freedom from ourselves. 9.13.11

A great paradox: by feeling/connecting to our prana (ourselves), we are able to create freedom from ourselves (a la Ravi Ravinda's definition). Aligned primarily with the feeling tone of freedom.

We played with sutra 1.12, 1.1, 1.2, and 2.35, the bijas of LAM and YAM, and the mantra of OM.
