During practice we have the opportunity to slow down, to settle, to dissolve into the vastness of Being.

Arriving at ‘Just this' - nothing special - just this...

During retreat we find this peace for longer periods as we are less and less distracted, less attached, less anxious, more curious.
There are moments where we dissolve into openness..... nothing special.............. just this.

Praying

It doesn't have to be
the blue iris, it could be
weeds in a vacant lot, or a few
small stones; just
pay attention, then patch

a few words together and don't try
to make them elaborate, this isn't
a contest, but the doorway

into thanks, and a silence in which
another voice may speak.

Mary Oliver, Thirst

I chose this poem to begin our inquiry into embodiment for its eloquent description of the very simple and pure sensation of resting in the body, the whole body, in this moment.

No class!!!

No class at the Running Wolf on Saturday June 9th, instead we are participating in the one day Kula Summer Retreat.

Join us for a relaxing one day summer retreat

The Ease of Being

June 9, 2007 9AM - 3:30PM

The Kula is offering a unique Spring retreat. We have the generous use of a private residence in Marine on St Croix. In addition to the one day retreat, we have access to the space for a pre-retreat overnight gathering and sunrise practice. The lunch meal will be provided, so participation will be very easy! Take the leisurely drive to Marine and join us for this relaxing experience.

Yoga Sutra Class #5
June 19, 2007

We'll try a different format this month as I'd like to share a meditation with you which will be difficult to perceive when the belly is full and distractions are arising. Therefore we will be eating almost an hour later so make arrangements to not arrive hungry which is also a distraction :) !

Arriving a bit early to get settled in might just be useful. Gini and I will be trading time @ 5:30.

6:00 Welcome / new and goods

Trade 5 each with crisp attention outs

Kosha 4 part Breath Meditation

We'll remain with the meditation in silence as we prepare the meal

Dinner - 'Go around discussion' on the insights of the meditation

Clean up dinner / bathroom break

Chant Sutras

Share your interpretations of first 4 sutras

Worksheet on the Subject / Object Meditation from last month

8:45 Closing

This plan is subject to radical change. Abide as presence and everything you need to know will sprout by itself.

Jai Shiva!
