Sorry guys, you can call me a troll. Lately the commercialism from your end is in your face, I know we all evolve and grow, but there's a contradiction from your thoughts before and your actions now. I know life is expensive, but yoga or the practice of spirituality turns you into into a very ordinary person, extremely simple, it's why commited sadhaks crave for caves and forests. They are averse to fame, money and beauty. It's not the exterior that matters but the joy of spirit so they shave their head and age themselves. I'm not saying be that way, you do a lot for humanity, but now you can't even do a video unless it's sponsored? You can only sell yoga as a form of exercise even if it's a spiritual practice. You enjoy materialism, you incur a carbon footprint travelling and even with a vegan lifestyle though I know you have addressed it. but it's all at loggerheads with selling a spiritual practice so people will always question your chaste intentions as yogis, who have transcended desire and materialism. It's an occupational hazard, being a yoga teacher, but now you must say, I enjoy the good things from time to time, so please support me, and people will gladly, with an open heart support your frank admission of desire and jet set lifestyle, so what if you package it in a hippie format.

I agree and disagree here. People shouldn't be so harsh and judgemental of you it is against the yogic Ahimsa which is an over arching principle of Yoga as a whole. However, it is important to keep certain traditions and styles pure and intact. If one is fortunate enough to have an authentic Yoga Guru they should only follow the teachings of that Guru. Traditions should not be muddled and mucked up.

I feel as long as people remember where yoga came from, its context, its purpose, and to not insult or appropriate it, who cares? I love the community aspect of western yoga, but it itself is also a huge source of negativity and elitism. I've taken to sheer personal practice these days. We all have to remember what it is we're participating, particularly us in the West.

I totally agree I have experienced the same thing after starting my vegan journey: people want to judge others so much for not being perfect when in the end we all want the same thing - a peaceful coexistence for humans and animals alike We have to support each other in our journeys even if we are flawed and fail from time to time

I love this. I am a Christian who adores yoga for the ability it has to center me and pulls me closer to stillness and quiet before prayer. I believe like you said things don't have to be just one thing. We can love people where they are and appreciate the beauty of the mat, whatever it brings to you.

Good for you two for doing this video. The trolls yoga isnt even what yoga was 200 years before Europe influenced. Gotta do what feels good and brings toward samadhi. Not history. Looking forward to your book. Keep your old videos up.
