Lying still is an important practice




Lying still is a very important yoga practice. Shavasana, corpe's pose, is the pose whith which I learned to start every yoga practice. Above is a film of how I get into, lie in and get out of the pose. 

I wrote something about swara yoga – I think I would need to get into nada yoga, the yoga of sounds and vibrations, in order to understand more about swara yoga. Knowledge comes with practice. And, I've heard while in India - enlightenment comes by the grace of guru. That is the cultural tradition yoga comes from.

About tantra art – here is a link to a text about yantra from Bindu Magazine: http://www.yogameditation.com/Articles/Issues-of-Bindu/Bindu-10/About-Sound-and-Form

When I lived in Barcelona I had a friend, Laura, who drew erotic comics. That's different.

I wonder if there is such a thing as deconstructivism in litterature? If so, the book ”El mono gramático” would surely be part of that movement. I know magic realism is a term, but the way Octavio Paz writes goes beyond that, deconstructing not only the ideas that hold together a way of perceiving the reality - inner and outer - he presents. He also deconstructs the language presenting those ideas. Peotry can do that – and this is his excuse – he is deconstructing because he is a poet.
