Porchon-Lynch-"Nature is My Encyclopedia"
All the different
aspects of Tao's long career as an actress, dancer, writer,
and film producer have created a unified blend which permeates
the peace she has attained over the years as a yoga student,
instructor and master yogini. Ever seeking, she reaches deep
inside to reveal the priceless gem which opens up the vistas
to integrate the sacred science of body, mind, and spirtual
powers from within, into a realm of living.
She has drawn from the lineage of her gurus and masters-
|
 |
| Aurobindo,
Ramakrishna, Swami Prabhavannda, Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma
Gandhi, BKS Iyengar, Donna Holleman, Rodney Yee and David Swenson,
as well as the the great yogini Mataji Indra Devi-to enable
her to discover the different facets of Yoga, to experience
the cosmic consciousness that adds dimensions to the gift of
life, the Tao within. |
