Come along from Goa's west coast to Dharamsala, Himalaya.
To feel cosmic energy.
Mana is the feeling to be connected to your inner source.
It cannot be created through thoughts or philosophy.
It can only be experienced.
The Roots of Yoga
The yoga studios where I learned were not glamorous.
Tumult and noise in Goa, monsoon rains in the Himalaya blowing through the tarps. Yoga as a science of inner observation, independent of external circumstances.
My first yoga teachers, however, were very authentic.
They merely reminded us of the inner knowledge. They taught trust — the understanding that everything already exists within the Self. They expected discipline (tapas) for daily practice (sadhana).
People spoke in everyday life about energy and the universe.
Not because it’s a trend, but because it is naturally rooted in the collective body of the country. Namaste (“I bow to you.”) is not a mere phrase, but an everyday greeting.
