Yoga with Nestor

I want to wish all my friends, colleagues, and Yoga students happy holidays with health, love, and PEACE.

The quote/poem at the end of my yoga classes this week:

“I am not Athenian or Greek, but a citizen of the world”.
Socrates
But the “I am a citizen of the world’ quote, was formerly attributed to Diogenes of Sinope, a cynic philosopher.

Nestor

The poem of the week in my yoga classes:

OPEN THE GATE


Open the gate my beloved—
arise, and open the gate:
my spirit is shaken and I’m afraid.
My mother’s maid has been mocking me
and her heart is raised against me,
so the Lord would hear her child’s cry.
From the middle of midnight’s blackness,
a wild ass pursues me,
as the forest boar has crushed me;
and the end which has long been sealed
only deepens my wound,
and no one guides me—and I am blind.

Solomon ibn Gabirol was an 11th-century Andalusian poet and Jewish philosopher with a Neo-Platonic bent. He published over a hundred poems, as well as works of biblical exegesis, philosophy, ethics, and satire. He was born in Málaga, Caliphate of Cordoba in 1021and died in Valencia, in 1072, at the age of 51.
