We made our way to the insitute to inscribe in our classes. As we were looking around for the place to do this a woman said that we could go to the stairs and watch Prashants class, this we did until we were all summoned to exit the building.
Following the crowd with jiggeling heads and rapid chatter we went outside where there was a woman speaking to the crowd. Geeta's sister.
Then Geeta came out.
After about 10 minutes of repremands about Chippas it was translated that somones shoes had been stolen and Geeta was very angry that this should happen when we have come to take yoga classes. We were told to get our shoes off the rack put them on. I of course had Omaha with me so I got two pair of shoes and was busted `` How am I supposed to know who`s shoes are taken if you two pairs miss`` I could not understand so I just looked at her and the man who gards the shoes told her there was a child behind the car putting them on ``This okay then`` with her hand wave so consistant of Indian gestures and Geeta particularly.
The first class emptied and came to reclaim their shoes, we were then told to place our shoes on the top rack. We did as told and went to sit on the bench to watch for Panadu to inscribe. ``Where is BKS`` askes Omaha, a door opened and through it walked BKS to enter the insistute where he greets people.
How very auspicious. He laughed as I told him that Omaha has waited her whole 7 years for this meeting and Ema was striken to silence by his presence. It was totally different seeing he and Geeta in their environment verses ours. Especially since now I have had a few days to familiarize myself with their customs or habits as the case may be.
After a huge fiasco with hotels and our apartment opening and Jessyca playing an unfortunate game of email chase we all found our way to the same place Jessyca last with a guide at 10 pm. All together now the experience can begin.
