Dear Yogis,

No feedback from the last newsletter which I thought would press a few buttons – I felt pushed into writing it (which I always do – as Fr.Martin said, “…when the spirit speaks!”).  Maybe no-one read it?  I know it was published.

This morning politically –  Biden dropped a bombshell.  After all his protestations he is stepping down.  Foolish, foolish.  Did The Mahatmas step down? the Saudi Sheiks? will Putin?  No, they are there until they drop off the twig.  There will be bad days, but they have the knowledge, the direction.  Anyone else will have to be dropped behind enemy lines so to speak – everyone will be taking pot shots at them too.

At least with Biden we knew where he was going, even if physically stumbling, he did have guts.  Trump just goes with the most favourable wind and is a PR Machine (have you got your “ear bandage”?).  We know NOTHING about Kamala apart from the obvious and what we have been told.  Fancy being thrown up against Trump.  Maggie Thatcher (The Iron Butterfly) could have done it – will Kamala?  Who knows.

Good job they are all church goers – this race will need supernatural help, and no matter who wins, the country will have to struggle through the next few years..  I imagine that Kamala will get the black, and female votes… Obama has not officially “endorsed” her –  I wonder why not? Hilary Clinton has gotten on board, but Rupert Murdoch (an avid fan of USA/Australia partnership) has yet to throw his hat in the ring.  Maybe he is just too busy with his new wife.  I did watch the doco, and I though his words were very scripted.  There was nothing new, although I am sure it will push Bridgerton off the yoga chat agenda.  The look of the lady with the gun on the promos and Kamala? Flippant comment I know.

Guess what?  We are going to have a Yoga Lunch this Saturday (27th July).  It takes ages to send out emails, get replies, then get apologies, then re-booking and on and on, until we actually get there exhausted with only three takers.  After 10+ years of effort I thought perhaps it had run its course, but no!  I had a special request from a student and decided that at least she and I would lunch.  I let the group know,  and guess what – I have some takers.  Saturday at the Vic in Woodend at 12noon.

If you want to join us, let me know.  Email me at yogafirst2@bigpond.com.  I don’t have the time to do encouragement every couple of days.  It is important to you, or not.  It is important to me and I will be there.

CARDS AND ART.  I do have sets of 5 TIBETAN and YIN CARDS, and have finished some lovely portrait ICONS (especially of the cat Gracie).  I will be putting the on etsy this week, and will let you know.
