What would Hippy-anjali write down and sing as key yoga code for the next 3 millennia, coming into conversation with old fat-and-jolly as Yogini Angela Farmer has called Patanjali (of the Yoga sutras) ... I wonder? :)

Hippy-anjali Yoga Notations
i ...
Yoga is the inner releasing action {relaxation response} of the bodymind/brain for we language-using human primates
ii ...
~ Practice Angela and Victor Yoga bodymind explorations including inner movements playfully ~ http://www.angela-victor.com and Underground Yoga {which will hopefully move online with interactive yoga avatarbots beyond videos} ~ See, too, Angela's Feminine Unfolding ~
~ Play and learn from these inner releasing actions
~ Care with compassion, ~ and enjoyably travel to hot springs for meditation in the warm pools ...
{I'm thinking of meditating in the warm pool Harbin Hot Springs here} ...
or meditate at home in your bath tub, and open your awareness/find benefit in daily travel like walking
~ There's much wellness & scientific evidence for the health benefits, in general, of a low-fat, natural foods diet (e.g. 5-9 servings of fruits, grains, vegetables and legumes per day), as well as 30 minutes of daily movement, some aerobic like dancing
**
1. Helpful guidelines for care / love in living?
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Caring_and_Loving
2. Positive observances ~ unwind
3. Yoga bodymind explorations including inner movements
4. Breathing ~ Mmmmm feels so good (Angela-wise) ~ explore
5. Come home inside into your bodymind at times to regenerate yourself
6. Focus in releasing ways to connect in a kind of oneness in neurophysiology
(and re Csikszentmihalyi's "Flow" experience)
7. Connectedness and "it's just happening"
8. Bring it on home ~ oneness ~ cosmic consciousness
1.
~ Nonharming (yummy vegetarian food with an egg and multi-vitamin a day is a boon)
~ Truth
~ Non-stealing
~ Hippy human primate yogis as potentially free Bonobo chimpanzees don't deny their sexuality, but non harming and care can be and are significant balances for sexuality that damages; have kids if you like, and raise good families; Hippy Yogini earth mother says have lots of babies and raise them well & with so much love
~ Adhibit (Engage), troop bond and pair bond with grace and ecological balance with others (re John Money's "Concepts of Determinism" ~ http://scottmacleod.com/anthropology/determinism.htm)
2.
~ Attune yourself through daily exploration of an inner releasing action {relaxation response} as a kind of inner bodymind house cleansing
~ Contentment neurophysiology brain-wise can be facilitated with the harmonizing effect of omega-3 fatty acids (flax seed oil capsules 7-10 per day)
~ Simplicity in Friendly / Quaker / non theistic f/Friendly senses is great
~ Cultivate consciousness of your own neurophysiology and actions, and conversation in these regards with a psychotherapist if this would be helpful
~ Bond well with your tribe, your partner(s), your group, your wildness too; lie on your back for the relaxation response daily, and if this emerges as a kind of inner attuning devotion, great

the yoga sutras of patanjali
http://www.alanlittle.org/yoga/patanjali.html

Feuerstein's 1989
The Yoga-Sutra of Patañjali: A New Translation and Commentary
*
And here's Georg Feuerstein himself in a "Origins of Yoga" video with Swami Vidyanand Swarooop Brahmachari ...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ua17Cw75uas
(which I found here - http://www.itsallyogababy.com/georg-feuerstein-1947-2012-on-the-missing-link-in-western-yoga/)
*
Feuerstein:
"There always have been renouncers, people, men and women, who left the householder stage, who, really, abandoned the conventional life and they wander around the mountains and in the forests ... those who dropped out and lived a life of ecstasy at the margins of society as many sadhus or yogis do now"
Swami:
"My whole life is devoted to seeking oneness with God"
Feuerstein:
The difference between the Yogi and there ordinary person is that the Yogi takes full responsibility for the wholeness of the human being including the spiritual dimension ...
Narrator:
It is a sacred science ...
Narrator:
Yoga means to join, yoke, to link with the divine ... we leave the world to do this (3:00). We give up everything.
Feuerstein:
My whole work over the last 30 years ... has been talking about the missing link in western Yoga ... and what was eliminated was the core of the Yogic tradition to make Yoga palatable to western audiences. And that core is a spiritual core. It's really the very essence of Yoga in terms of our path to inner freedom, inner peace, happiness.
Sadhu:
translation: "By leaving society, the Yogi surrenders entirely to God ... he is protected and sheltered"
*
I depart from this Indian Yogic perspective somewhat extensively, as you can see above in the - Hippy-anjali Yoga Notations - but also sympathize with Feuerstein's language and hippie Yogic interpretations from what I'll call a "western" perspective ... since, for example, hippy Yogis often of western background traveled in the east (e.g. they may have gone to India in the '60s and '70s), were also drop outs interested in the wholeness of life.
What I learn from this video, and as an anthropologist, is the cultural relatively of who's speaking about yogi and where they're from, and where they're coming from in interpreting this - and the power of cultural memes in informing and embodying human beings.
I also appreciate the Indians in this video, and who made this video, however, thinking through what westerners, for example, might learn from them about yoga, and in terms of the origins of Yoga.
On with Angela and Victor's Yoga ... :))

Yoga Sutras of Patanjali -

*

*

*
*
Problems with Patanjali's Yoga sutras, as I see them ?
"Yoga as the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind" is like death in a biological sense ... which doesn't make sense.
Yoga in this Patanjalian 8 limb sense, is also, as I see it, too ascetic, and isolating, and where celibacy doesn't make sense evolutionarily necessarily, and where its God-centricity is also nonsensical to me - and especially re being a kind of reasoning atheist Quaker or nontheist f/Friend ...
*
Hi Donald,
Definitely coded ... http://www.scottmacleod.com/
perhaps an alternative to Patanjali's Yoga Sutras too today ... which I've been hesitating doing for years ...
Didn't come out too badly ...
What would Hippy-anjali write down and sing as key yoga code for the next 3 millennia, coming into conversation with old fat-and-jolly as Yogini Angela Farmer has called Patanjali (of the Yoga sutras) ... I wonder? :) ... http://scott-macleod.blogspot.

Hi M,
Not sure I'm going about seeking / finding a partner to have a family in the most sensible way ...
Wondering if there's even a Stanford ( eg eHarmony) web site for this ... for example since two friends have suggested websites like this in the past (and such sites themselves in general exist)
Yoga web page, with many interesting ideas ...
http://www.scottmacleod.com/
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.
... as a creative response to problematic ideas I see in Yoga ... don't want to throw the baby out with the bath water, however! :) interesting writing and yoga-wise possibly - albeit out of the box
In my web journal since 2008 daily+ -
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.
But I may head to further Reed gatherings ... so it's possible I could meet at a Reed gathering a
friend with good fit lovemaps in some of these regards ...
L,
Scott
