Sunday 2:30 pm with Miranda
Both classes were pretty good. Today's was hot and crowded -- with 55 people. The mat next to mine was two inches away, which made Full Locust interesting.
I don't have much to say because, for unknown reasons, I have a splitting headache. I'll have more tomorrow.
In the Meditations, we reached the third yama: non-stealing. Each of the first three yamas gets translated in a negative fashion -- non-harming, non-lying, and non-stealing. But it's clear that the negative aspect is just a start. They all represent a positive virtue when taken beyond the simple prohibition. Thus non-harming becomes caring or love. Non-lying becomes honesty or truthfulness. And non-stealing becomes generosity.
