Storytime With Pictures (03/31/09)

Hey Family,

I have a new class!!!
When I was in Goa, I started working with students who came to the Shakti Bhakti house
on building the body to hold the shakti. We would practice drills to strengthen and stabil-
ize the corporal vessel so that when the juice starts flowin' through, the body's built to
weather the storm.
Now I wanna share that with you!!!
I'll be doing a 6 week Yoga Boot Camp series starting this Saturday at the end of Bay St.
in Santa Monica.
Class is in the morning, 8:30-10am, every Saturday starting April 4th.
If you're into having fun, strengthening your body, killin' hangovers and meeting awesome
new people, THIS IS YOUR CLASS. If you like being depressed, weak and sickly, then you
definitely don't wanna come. Choice is yours. ;)

And now, STORY TIME...

Once upon a time a young man named Mateo traveled to a far-off land in search of new
knowledge, a lover like no other, adventure, and most of all, himself.
He found a house full of foreigners, and dusty roads that bore no name. He found cheap
whiskey in rupee-driven marketplaces and temples adorned with naked devis. He found
heartache and hope and soap on a rope in showers that only sold cold water.
And after a handful of trials and tribulations, broke and broken, he found himself. Stripped
of all concepts of right or wrong or the promises of lovesongs, he saw himself clearly, and
he cried. Lord, how he cried.
These tears washed away his illusions and left him illumined, and carried him home, to
rejoin the strange angels of Southern California, USA.
Ahhh, sweet surrenderous salvation. Here we go.

Come out on April 5th to hear the tales and see the images of an Indian journey of service
and sadhana. Sit in sangha with a crew of yogis and storytellers and relive the mystery
of several months abroad.
We'll practice asana first, then roll out the food (potluck, of course) and start the slideshow.
We'll be graced with live music from Pauline and Akadahmah, Yours Truly, and other special
guests.
Come play with the tribe.

Oh! Remember, if you don't dig this, don't do it. If you don't want me to tell you what's goin' on
in the marvelous world of Mateo, lemme know, and I'll end your playful email stream.

Happy Sacred Fool's Day!

Lovin' you!!!
Mateo
