Thank you for sharing your dream Srineet. #bksiyengar #guriji #iyengaryoga

Here on the 3rd anniversary of Guruji's death and in these tumultuous times, I am reminded of his wise words: "In the midst of death, life persists: in the midst of darkness, light; in the midst of falsehood, truth." Guruji's wisdom, his example, his inspiration persist beyond his death; his light continues to shine, illuminating us all; the truth of his teaching clears away the false and unreal. He will live forever in my heart. #bksiyengar #guruji #iyengaryoga #johnschumacheryoga
