    In this final episode of season 1, I have a very rich conversation with the grandson of BKS Iyengar, Srineet Sridharan. Srineet talks about how the practice of yoga was always in the family and how he remembers as a child going to Model Colony to take the children's classes at RIMYI. Srineet also talks about the scope of his own learning of the philosophy of yoga and the importance of culturing the mind.

    In this episode Prashantji tells us the colorful story of Guruji’s first flight on an airplane in May of 1954 . Guruji was going to Switzerland for a month to teach Yehudi Menuhin. Prashant recalls that day when the whole family went to the airport to see him off and what it was like for them. He was just 5 years old at the time.

    Prashant also explains to us how everyone can come under the tree of yoga.

    In this episode I start out asking Prashant a question on Karma. I wanted to know if we are able to pick - up where we leave off from this life - in terms of our progress on our yoga spiritual journey. His answer is unsurprisingly profound and thought provoking. He explains … “if you have taken something from Adyatma - it will not betray you.”

    We also hear Lee share a story of Guruji’s first experience traveling to the United States which gives us some perspective of the challenges he faced, especially in the earlier years of his teaching.
