One Hundred Days - Celebrating BKS Iyengar




https://youtu.be/D2Uav6Rv3YU 

December 14th, 2018 marks 100 years since BKS Iyengar was born. He was born during the flu epidemic and grew up quite sickly. His brother in law introduced him to yoga in his teens and his health began to improve. He began teaching at about 17 years old and taught until his death 3 years ago. He was more than a teacher. He lived yoga and taught from his experiences and intelligence. Although I am not a direct student of his, but did see him daily for a month when I was in India, I have benefited from his teaching daily. From his books, videos and especially from learning from his teachers directly, which I continue to do. 

When Guruji's book - Light on Yoga - was celebrating 50 years since it was first published I wrote 50 days of Light on Yoga. You can go back in my blog and read them if you like. Day 1 begins on September 29th, 2016.

Starting tomorrow I am going to celebrate BKS Iyengar with 100 days of either a photo or short video. I encourage you to join me as the more we share his teachings the better!

In the light of Guriji..
Namaste.
