Sigh..my mysore teacher is leaving apparently. I'm feeling really sad to hear this news. I sort of knew he was going to go off soon but I didn't expect it till next month. I can't imagine how it would be like to not have him around tying me up into knots and goading me into asanas...
I guess this is a great opportunity for me to practice detachment...but its really not very easy to do. One more class only, and then I don't know if the studio is going to do away with mysore entirely or get someone else to teach.
I DO know my practice is mine..and I can always practice on my own. But its really not the same as when you have a teacher to touch base with and help get me into things. As it is I already only get to go for class once a week.
Feeling rather heavy hearted today..I've attended mysore for probably 7 months or so now. Its different from normal classes..like hatha etc. Its so much more personal in a way..like my personal journey in Ashtanga...And my teacher is so much a part of this so far that I am feeling a little lost already..and he's not even gone yet...
