Sweet Vinyasa: Like a Ripe Cucumber: Monday, January 6, 2014

We played in feeling the "Ekam Sat" as Dirghatamas describes in the Rig Veda and used our practice as a prayer to help us see this Truth more clearly. The practices are rumored to help us move through the blocks "Like a ripe cucumber which detaches itself effortlessly from the stem" (from the Tryambakam Mantra).
