OUTING ON MONDAY 12th JANUARY 2015

Thirty of us were prepared for a perfect day of sunshine for a yoga outing...
The weather did not want to hear about sun instead gave us cold and rain.Did that stop us surely not ,we were a bunch of real warriors ..Haha!!!!
 
We decided to have a great day,no exceptions...Even with the rain, our day was filled with shine.Because all of us believe where ever we go ,regardless of the weather , we carry in each of us our own sunshine.

We start to warm up on the field of grass with some meditation until some heavy drops of rain dropped on our noses so we have to run and retreat on the top of the roof of the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal.
 
We find a protect area against the rain but neither less it was so windy on the roof. Despite grunting our teeth, having frozen toes,hands,legs we still managed to practice the complete flow of Hatha 1 by teacher Diva (pre recorded on tape)..Trust me our asana were pretty frozen.

But our joy came when each of us lay out all our home cooking  specialities for gigantic picnic ,better than a five stars hotel. Fresh bean sprout salad,roasted chicken , curry,noodles,ham ,salmon only to name a few.

The beauty of this outing day is mostly the energy and spirit of twenty beautiful souls. Nobody was complaining ,demanding, selfish, self centred. We were all together in the most truthful simplicity wanting to connect with each other.
We were all happy because nobody compared themselves with others,we were all equal and no ego were involved.

Our thank go to our teacher Deva  for sharing and teaching us over the years that the greatest wisdom is in SIMPLICITY, LOVE, RESPECT, TOLERANCE, SHARING,GRATITUDE,FORGIVENESS..
A big bravo for our teacher/friend Deva and big thumps up and reasoning claps for the thirty beautiful souls .
All of us made an unforgettable happy day.....
