We are in awe

We visited the Iyengar Institute today. We did not get to take a class, but we knew this in advance, as you need to book years ahead of time. We spent some time in the asana room, we could feel the energy in our feet. We spent some time talking to Prashant Iyengar, and then we went to lunch with Jean's teacher Joan White. We came back to the institute after lunch with the hope of meeting Guruji B.K.S. Iyengar who sits in the library after 2:30 pm. We waited for a bit, but no Guruji. Then we came upstairs and Maria just knew he was coming. About 10 minutes later he arrived. We were in awe. We greeted him and then went down to the library to pay our respects. Our trip is complete. The fact that we got to meet him in this lifetime, words cannot express the feeling.

Later in the day we got mendhi(henna tattoos) to commemorate our trip. Sightseeing tomorrow. Namaste.
