Blissful Monkey Yoga Our minds are like a wild horse, and the intellect is like a monkey.

  • nice logo.
  • We need more lotus blossoms in here!
  • I'm not seeing a lot of follow-through on the horse portion of the metaphor...
  • The horse needs a rider and the intellect of the horse is like a monkey who needs to pay her bills, gas money for the SUV, organic kumquats, skirts of non-capitalist cotton and other cool money making California items. I see much bliss for the yogalists and their bankers. Apart from those folks, this has as much to do with yoga as my asshole has to do with the sweet smell of the north wind off the mountains on a hor summer's day. I don't apologize for this rant since crap should be called what it is.
  • A whore summer's day should have been "hot". So very hot.
  • >The horse needs a rider Yeah, sure, but: "If you don't get control over the monkey, it will run and jump all about, causing you to... lose a lot of energy. What a great shame it would be if you allowed the monkey to squander your internal treasures." What happened to the horse? What kind of lame-ass metaphor is it if the first phrase is 'your mind is a horse' and then the horse never shows up again? How about 'if you don't get control over the monkey, it will seize the reins and make the horse of your mind gallop for the banana patch of disequilibrium'? How about 'what a great shame it would be if the monkey ended up bottoming for the horse'? You can't just drop the horse, is all I'm saying.
  • Sakala guuna nidhaanam, vaanaraa naama dheesham Raghupati priya bhaktam, vaata jaatam namaami.
  • Letting the monkey ride the horse doesn't sound like a good deal, either.
