You have such an interesting blog. Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed reading your posts. All the best for your future blogging journey.
ReplyDeleteSridhar, Thanks for the kind and positive feedback. The "Mindfulness Yoga" book provides a nice blend of Buddhist and Hindu yoga ideas- for which there is considerable overlap on the ethics side. If one is impressed by the role of metaphor in our "thinking" then "Philosophy in the Flesh" will keep you thinking deeply.
