A Good Samaritan

“Do you want to read this book?” A senior citizen who was holding an old book asked me. I have neither met him before nor have noticed him walking or sitting in the park athough I took my yoga class daily in the park at the same place.
“Yes, Sir.” I said politely. “Thank you very much.”
He handed me that book and asked, “This book is written by Swami Satyananda Saraswati. Have you heard his name?”

I nodded and glanced at the book. On its faded page, ‘Asana, Pranayama, Mudra, Bandha’ was boldly written. I said, “I have read some of the books written by him like Yoga Nidra which is about yogic sleep, Mediation from Tantra which is about Tantric practices and other books but not this one.”
“I was yoga teacher. I saw you teaching everyday. Read this book and return it.”
“Sure, Sir.”

I am participating in For #TheWriteChoice and I am enjoying it! 🙂
