6 More Days…Yoga (Information Pt 3)

# Yoga (Information Pt 2)

Personal, religious @ 21 April 2007

As said in this post, Beki and I are going to be starting Yoga in Oxford.

We have now found a class, it is Ashtanga Yoga and is on Monday evenings. We are really looking forward to it, Beki has got some clothes and we have now both got Yoga mats. So we are all set :)

For Yoga, I think Beki is wanting it as a form of exercise. And I want that too, but I am also very interested in the more spiritual side of it too… even though Yoga started in the Dharmic religions (majorly Hinduism, minorly Buddhism, I feel that it could be effective for all sorts of other religions…. this is a philosophy that I have (similar to the fact that I feel that Buddhism can be placed over the top of other religions, and would be beneficial) but Beki does seem to deem things ’scary’ when they clash a little with her faith, but I am sure she is just saying that and not meaning it entirely - Faith is a very personal thing, and I respect everyones decision about their faith, and so does Beki.
