When I started practicing, I thought spirituality had to announce itself.
I was attending many different classes.
The teachers who opened class with chakras, poetry, half-hour stories — sometimes too much bláblábla and frufrufru — I thought they were the spiritual ones. The Iyengar teacher I was practicing with never did that. Alignment, mechanics, structure. Nothing else. I quietly decided she wasn’t spiritual.
I was wrong.
Time passed. I came to understand that spirituality cannot be taught. We can teach religion, rituals, techniques to calm the mind — but spirituality transcends all logical knowledge.
Now I see her teaching for what it was, straight from the source — the same Krishnamacharya lineage that runs through my own practice today. And with so many new styles and trends claiming to hold spirituality, many beginners are misled.
Not everything that shines is gold.
Not everything that smells of Palo Santo is spiritual.
