EP 31 - Yoga Without the Struggle with Mark and Rosalind
Yoga is not seeking for a future idealism. Yoga is participation in the given Reality (capital R). The beauty, the wonder, the power, the harmony that is intrinsic to your life. Yoga is not to use the body or the mind to seek. Yoga is to give the body and all ordinary conditions over to the capital-R Reality, which is its context. The collaboration of great luminaries has freed yoga from the unnecessary struggle that leaves so many people injured or disappointed. Mark and Rosalind discuss the implications of Yoga without struggle.
In this episode you will hear...
01:20 Fish don't know what water is. What is reality? What is Yoga without struggle?
09:00 Yoga is giving over to life as it actually is.
16:00 Wandering around India. Finding authenticity.
24:00 Every movement taught by that system is like an expression, like a dance.
33:00 The body is for giving over to its actual condition...the cosmos.
44:00 Negative associations of sacred texts.
57:00 Yoga should be actual, natural and non obsessive.

EP 33 - The Yin and Yang of Yoga: The Heart of Yoga in China
Ronan Tang and Xi Zhu are a bridge for humanity between East and West, master translators and facilitators of the Heart of Yoga in China. Together they facilitate the unity of ancient wisdom traditions. What is the relationship between Daoism and Veda, between Yoga and Chinese Traditional Wisdom practices? What is the relationship of ha-tha yoga to the yin and yang of the Dao? How does Tai Chi relate to Yoga? Ronan and Xi are the living examples of the answers to these questions in China, dear friends bringing together the wisdom traditions of their culture with those of their neighbour/sister country India. Together they speak with Mark and Rosalind about their process of "whole body translation", the story of working together for the last 15 years, why Chinese students adapt to "Yoga of participation" so easily, and their experience of how these teachings can bypass all techniques and bring harmony to relationship. They also discuss how Chinese characters such as 放松 (fàngsōng, relax) and 樂 (lè, yuè – joy, music) reveal insights especially relevant for Yoga practitioners. If you are a Mandarin speaker/reader and would like more information on the community in China, online gatherings etc, get in touch with [email protected]. In this episode you will hear...
