If only words could describe!

  Luna in the middle followed by us practitioners on the sides! I was first surprised to find Taichi and Qigong public events at Couchsurfing. Even though not sure what to expect I decided to try it out because I have somehow always been appealed by the Taoist Philosophy. Having seen Taichi and Qigong flow movements in the movies and popular culture, I wanted to give it a try without a second thought. Thanks to the free session hosted by Luna and Nayeem! I visit Nagarjun forest/hill/region whenever I feel too clogged in the life within Kathmandu's hustle and bustle. The Nepal Yoga Home is located at the foothills of Nagarjun and at a picturesque location. In a way it is quite a place to host Taichi as well. Luna and Nayeem greeted me with gentleness and their warm presence. First off, Luna’s choice to practise outdoors was perfect. The fresh air outside was welcoming. And the view to the valley in the distance is a blessing in disguise. Even though I was the only one to show up at ...

  It is finally over  Clouds gather up to fill the sky  As they finally give in  Ahh moistness for a change! The rains wash up all that is old  Just when the skies open up  There is a glimpse of the stillness  An infinite space shows itself  Just when I leave it all aside  I see a vision open up Winds they bring me home  Such is the place I feel in the inside Just when the search is over  There is this place you see  Somewhere unexpected  It is always that way  Just when I leave it all aside  The winds they bring me home  Clouds gather up to fill the sky  The skies finally give in  Ahh moistness for a change! Is this it? Is it finally over? 

The air is still  Yellow and maroon robes abound It is a family that keeps  A lineage that serves  Prayer flags flutter as if to answer The thoughts dissolve with the aroma of incense  Rituals begin with horns ablaze Silently as life goes on in the background Foods are being prepared somewhere As guests sit for their practice Sound of the chants resound the walls  With the harmony of the prayers Homage to the three jewels  Suddenly drums culminate to the peak  Silence follows as chants stop Homage to the three jewels  The Yellow, The Blue, The Red  The practice is for the everyday It is a family that keeps  A lineage that serves  As the sun sets  Life goes on and The air is still once again!
