Yoga and Science

For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love.
-Carl Sagan

If you're looking for some inspiration for your own yoga practice (on and off the mat) or if you teach classes and are looking for some quotes to inspire your students this video is wonderful place to start. 

I love finding the intersections between yoga philosophy and science and Carl Sagan is absolutely one of the great yogi masters.  It's true that I might have bias: he taught in Ithaca at Cornell for many years, is buried in a cemetery in town that I take walks through, his widow was my neighbor, and my boyfriend is a physicist. Okay, okay. Nevertheless, watch the video. Decide for yourself.
