American Yoga in Crisis: Reclaiming an Ancient Spiritual Practice. Book Signing and Talk with Tom Pilarzyk, Author of Yoga Beyond Fitness: Getting More than Exercise from an Ancient Spiritual Practice
May 21, 7 p.m. at Crazy Wisdom Tea Room
Is American yoga just an exercise regimen masquerading as spirituality? This talk captures the story of yoga practice today, with attention given to treating yoga as a receptacle of
transformative power. While 16 million Americans practice, yoga’s development as a popular fitness workout and a not-so-popular path of spiritual liberation poses a unique dilemma for those sensitive to its ancient roots. As it morphs into physicality, fun, and foolishness, some industry leaders argue that more people now have a chance to explore its spirituality.
But can students “get it” if more and more teachers only teach hatha yoga poses? Tom Pilarzyk helps restore the heart of yoga with a hopeful, heartfelt tribute to its highest aspirations.
