Today would have been B.K.S. Iyengar's 98th Birthday. Although he passed away a little over two years ago he is still deeply rooted in my heart and always will be.
Many have posted wonderful tributes to Guruiji. I never had the opportunity to learn from him directly and only spent one month in India at the institute when he was alive watching him in his daily practice in the corner of the room, but I still feel daily the value of his teaching either though his books, recording and videos. I am lucky also to have the opportunity to study with many wonderful Iyengar teachers who all work so hard to pass on the teachings of yoga the best they can and in the Light of Guruji.
Today my practice was in honour of Guruji. His lifelong practice and willingness to keep exploring and delving deeper into the body, mind and breath has made it easier for the rest of us to learn this ancient art of yoga.
Much gratitude.
Namaste.
