In December 2014 nearly 1300 participants from 51 nations gathered for an international convention to celebrate geetaji's 70th birthday. This was gurujis requests that it continue even before he passed away.
This was one of the prayers Geeta opened with, saying "We will eat together, we will be together, and we will carry on this knowledge without having any kind of jealousy, malice, or any kind of klesa within us. With the purity of the mind, we will carry on the knowledge with our teaching process. And that is how, even if we are living on this earth in different areas, we have to have that feel that we are always together."
This was taken from Yoga Rahasya vol.22 no.1 2015
I was not in India to take part in this wonderful convention but though Geeta's words I feel connected to Guruji and the teachings.
The workshops and conferences I have attended since BKS Iyengar died have shown that his wisdom continues to be passed down.
I am grateful.
Namaste.
