Infinite Awareness

Krishnamacharya (during an interview with A. G. Mohan): “Yoga is an awareness, a type of knowing. Yoga will end in awareness. Yoga is arresting the fluctuations of the mind as said in the Yoga Sutras (of Patanjali): citta vritti nirodha. When the mind is without any movement, maybe for a quarter of an hour, or even quarter of a minute, you will realize that yoga is of the nature of infinite awareness, infinite knowing. There is no other object there.”

We are thrilled to announce that Maya Rose was born March 1 at 9:53 AM. Jade, Nate and baby are doing beautifully and we extend our warmest wishes and blessings to the family.

Wednesday, Thursday & Friday of this week we will be holding morning Mysore (Friday Led Primary) 6-8am at St. Mary Church, 8 Inman Street, at the intersection of Mass Ave right next to Cambridge City Hall. Hope to see you there.
