The Big O in Om

...part of his scholarly exercises while leading the life of a religious student at Benares, and wholly engaged in the  contemplation of the deity. A person acquainted with the true principles of this science, who preserves his Dharma (virtue or religious merirt), his Artha (wordly wealth) and his Kama (pleasure or sensual gratification), and who has regard to the customs of the people, is sure to obtain the mastery over his senses....person attending to Dharma, Artha, and Kama will obtain success in everything that he may do.
Can you guess where the above quote is from and what it is about? 

Saturday I had my second yoga session! Got down on my own mat, sweated all over it, and it felt great! Teacher even helped me do a head stand...wooohooo!


Other, than the standard benefits of yoga/exercise (bla bla bla bla) we normally hear about (like fitness, relaxation, stress relief, etc.), me and my roomie had an 'a-h-a' moment during our routine...we were going to be the Bendy Babes


The eureka moment went like this:
yoga = making weird poses = flexibility = prepping for Kama Sutra  poses (now you can guess where the above quote is from)


and thus we had discovered our ultimate motivation!


I mean, c'mon, waking up so early, sweating like a pig, concentrating to ensure proper posture, breathing, and twisting and turning into a salty pretzel...well, we gotta have a carrot stick (excuse the phallic imagery) to motivate us on!
