A seminar on Purusha-Prakrti interface (or interaction) was conducted
at the Yoga Institute, for the Swadhyaya Group of the Alumni Association of the
Yoga Institute, on July 8, 2012.
The rain gods had given us respite, and the heat and coolness were well balanced, in the peaceful atmosphere, in this place of higher learning, where one' s character gets forged.
Nearly 45 Alumni were present....half a dozen
teachers...with Ajay leading with his pleasant presentation, laced with corny
jokes, that made the atmosphere of the seminar light.
Kartik's presentation, on Purusha Prakrti interface, was excellent....precise, with each idea cogently explained....
Promil was at her best, leading the group in a guided meditation....explaining important details from a wide spectrum of notes and empiric experience ...
Harry also made his small presentation on the Hum-sa practice, explaining the concept, text and practices....
There was also good recreation...and for moments I thought I was in the film city, with a choreographer, leading the fleet footed and artritic joints of the elder alumni, in a vigourous workout...it was a cathartic moment....the body responding to a creative rhythm...
The whole seminar was ably prepared by the indefatigable Agrawala, a senior alumni....
Hansaji, gave her magic touch in the last
session, telling us dullards, to brighten up. Both herself and doctor, spoke of
the interaction between pursuha and prakrti, in terms and terminology we could
understand. This was the vital message of yoga, do not get material things get
better of you....keep your balance with the active presence of your soul in all
your dealing with life. Pass on the command of your life from your mind to the
soul, or the Purusha was the gist of the seminar.
A wonderful seminar for many of us who participated...

The most important moment was when senior teachers who conducted the seminar were invited for a tete-a-tete (literally meaning putting heads together, a French Expresion)....where Dr. Jayadeva, communicated to our souls as it were, his vision of maintaining the spirit of yoga at the Yoga Institute.
