Tree 10 - A Yogic Tree Comments

Geeta, I like 'content'(ment) . And I usually manage quite well being content (enough) ; I VERY RARELY say 'I'm happy', bring content to be content. : ) bri

oops. where did that incomplete comment go? ! As I was saying: In 1970 I worked as a civilian nurses' aide in a NYState hospital rather than be subject to military rule over me if I'd been 'drafted' during the Viet Nam/Vietnam war/conflict. ;)

(cont.) Let's hear it [applause] for 'Ahimsa - Non-violence! '. I was a 'Conscientious Objector' (to all war)

Who IS that Raving Beauty beneath the tree! ? Hee hee. Ok, I'll read your poem again. (cont.)

Well, I DO like trees and have climbed plenty of them, mostly in my 'younger years'. And they make great homes for birds, bees, and other creatures. 'Tarzan of the Apes' lived in a tree house with Jane and their son, Boy. ;))

'A tree never harms or hurts' ........You think so? ! Tell that to someone whose house has just been split in two, OR a boulder which has slowly been cleaved over years by a tree's roots! ! !

T.T. aka Geeta, Is THAT a giant BAT, a fruit bat perhaps, hanging from the left side of the tree, or is it Dracula? ? ? Yikes! ! Ok I'll read poem but I peeked at it and yogi is NOT 'my thing'; NO exercise is. : ) bri

2) Samadhi was a natural state of mind and body for Shri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa….

The Yoga tree with Yama (self-discipline) as its roots, then the niyam, the postures, pranayama, meditation, contemplation and "Samadhi"…are all limbs of yoga.

Beautiful Geeta enjoyed it very much Bravo and TFS
