Sweet Vinyasa: What Lies Within: Wednesday, September 18, 2013

To set us us for practice we contemplated a few words from Ralph Waldo Emerson:
"What lies behinds us and what lies beyond us is small compared to what likes within us"

And we used the story of Svetaketu from the 6th Chapter of the Chandogya Upanishad to help us better understand the magnificence of our being.
