Class Tuesday

Hi Everyone,

Please be sure that you have read  How Yoga Works Chapters 1-16 for class on Tuesday. We will spend the bulk of our philosophy discussion time with that work.  In order to prepare for discussion, please have in mind the following topics: (you are welcome to address any or all of these issues on your blog)

1. two things you like about the book thus far. Please be specific.
2. Two things you don't like about the book thus far.  Please be specific.
3. What similarities do you see with what we are doing in class (both the philosophy and yoga dimensions) with what is being discussed in the book?
4. Do you see any references to  the idea of stilling the fluctuations of the mind  or  seeing the true self  or  identifying with the fluctuations of the mind in the reading  thus  far?
5. How would you describe the captain as a student?
6. How would you describe yourself as a student?

Also,  I will give you a trial grade on your blog posts (responses to reading, practice reflection, attendance, and responses to others  this weekend). It is not a set in stone grade, it is meant to give you feedback about how you are doing based on the quality of work you have produced thus far.  I will take into account all work received by midnight Friday.

See  you in Class,
