  Giving the (more) business to yoga

Following up on my blog entry about the Wall Street Journal article on yoga and high finance, there was an angle that I did not notice initially. The Columbia Journalism Review calls Tina Gaudoin and the WSJ to task for quoting a teacher at a yoga studio she owns in London. Gaudin is a new editor at the WSJ, brought in from UK. The Gawker also noted the less than transparent relationship between Gaudoin and the yoga studio. I wonder if Patanjali had anything to say about this kind of ethical complication on the road to samadhi.

There was recently an article in BusinessWeek about MBA students turning to yoga to relieve the stress. More than a few business schools (Chicago, Northwestern, MIT and Harvard) offer yoga classes as part of their wellness programs.

I thrive when exploring new realms of knowledge and experience.

"The eye through which I see God is the same eye through which God sees me; my eye and God's eye are one eye. One seeing, one knowing, one love."
         — Meister Eckhart

"Life is like a ten-speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use."
         — Charles Schultz

"You become a writer by writing. It is a yoga."
         — R.K. Narayan, Indian writer

Men cannot see their reflection in running water, but only in still water.
        — Chuang Tzu, philosopher (c. 4th century BCE)

Many people hear voices when no-one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.
