तीव्रसंवेगानाम आसन्नः ॥२१॥ = tīvrasaṃvegānām āsannaḥ

For those who practice forcefully, in a very intense way, the skill of yoga will be achieved very soon.

AM

Woke up at 4:00 AM (Brahma-Muhurta). Practiced yoga all day.

Breath Infusion: Practice of 30 minutes. Kundalini was raised forcefully in 3 different kneeling asanas.

Meditation: Very good meditation on Naad for 40 minutes.

Dream recall: 1 dream recalled.

PM

Must be the result of fructifying previous merits or just plain luck that I was able to meet the Acharya Michael Beloved in person today, and he kindly proceeded to rectify me as I conducted the daily practice of postures and breath infusion in front of him.

The result? I learned in those precious minutes more than in months of figuring out things by myself. I am looking forward to practice with him at 4 AM tomorrow morning.

In addition to the technical information, the conversation we had prior to the practice session about yoga, his works and books, and about similar philosophical topics along these lines, was extremely enlightening. This conversation was most accentuated by the calming, radiant, and assuring presence of his wife Marcia Beloved (Sadhvi Minaketana Dasi).

May God and Gurus bless them both!
