my teacher Eddie Stern was recently on "The Martha Stewart Show" to represent Ashtanga Yoga. He dropped some knowledge about the Indian yoga tradition, the importance of daily practice and demonstrated a few asanas.... As always, cool as a cucumber!

this poem was the inspiration for the masthead design on this page, and has been an inspiration to me for a long time. from Spoon River Anthology.
I HAVE studied many times
The marble which was chiseled for me--
A boat with a furled sail at rest in a harbor.
In truth it pictures not my destination
But my life.
For love was offered me and I shrank from its disillusionment;
Sorrow knocked at my door, but I was afraid;
Ambition called to me, but I dreaded the chances.
Yet all the while I hungered for meaning in my life.
And now I know that we must lift the sail
And catch the winds of destiny
Wherever they drive the boat.
To put meaning in one's life may end in madness,
But life without meaning is the torture
Of restlessness and vague desire--
It is a boat longing for the sea and yet afraid.
