Today was my first Bikram Yoga class. To those who may not be familiar with Bikram its “hot” yoga, and by hot I mean 105 degrees (or more). Hot! What I found extremely interesting was that Bikram’s Guru was Paramahansa Yoganada’s younger brother. Of course Yoganada was the author of Autobiography of a Yogi which may have inspired more people towards yoga and Self Realization than any other book in modern history, including myself. So there is a very personal connection.

I really enjoyed the class and hope to continue as part of my personal exercise program (which those of whom know me know is extreme to say the least) and as part of a larger spiritual discipline. Yoga prepared the body to sit longer in meditation as well as awakening the spine and the spiritual energy stored within.

I urge anyone who access to qualified instructions to attend the class and challenge yourselve. I believe you’ll be surprised at what is accomplished and how you feel after.

God bless,

Eric
