Today I am a Better Student

because I realize that education and learning are activities of peace time.  In war time, resources are reallocated. 

It is honorable to participate in activities that accelerate the human condition beyond merely meeting deficiency needs.

It is a great privilege of our geography and condition that women may learn, the middle class may learn, children may learn....

Today I am a Better Student because

  • I believe that others have insight.  Even if it's not relevant to me today, may I participate in another teacher's unfolding.
  • I am teachable.  I am sufficiently receptive to hear how another may speak gracefully, truthfully.
  • I believe my community is rich with gifts of Knowledge and Wisdom and I want to celebrate that.

Invocation

We might perform exercises for various aspects of health. 
We strength train or run for muscles or for the cardiovascular system,
but the ancient science and art of yoga is about changing--but not just changing--transforming self. 

We take this time from our daily concerns for the purpose of remembrance and reverence for the sacred journey we're all involved in this moment.

This powerful disruptor of the ordinary attentional demands of our day breaks us from our accustomed roles and duties. 

But how willing to change are we?
To wholeheartedly comply with changes occurring, neither the allergy nor defensive posturing need present itself. 

Invocation is invitation. 
To invoke Spirit into our Minds, Hearts, and Bodies sidesteps the tendency to "do" yoga, to perform it, or to exhibit it. 
Invocation is Spirit-Romance.
