[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tried yoga years ago because my physio therapist said it was an excellent way to stretch. For me, personally there was nothing more to it. There was no intent to insult anyone's religion, I just needed to stretch some damn tight muscles. [/quote] Fair enough, I have no problem with you tending to your health concerns. It's not about "You have to be Hindu to do yoga" or "Only Hindus can do yoga", it's about, "I'm a non-Hindu benefiting from a Hindu practice" and being mindful of that. Most people say, "Yoga isn't Hindu, so I can practice it without being Hindu." We're saying the attitude should be, "Yoga is Hindu, but I can practice it without being Hindu as long as I'm mindful of what it is I'm doing." Tight muscles do need to be stretched; nothing wrong with that![/quote]
