Join Dr. Robert Svoboda and Scott Blossom for 6 days of yoga and teachings live online
Embodied life on our planet consists of ceaseless transformation, and Fire is key to transformation. The nourishment we receive from the food that we eat, our spiritual practices, and our human and more-than-human relationships are all determined by our capacity to "digest" what we feed our bodies, minds, and relationships. Our internal fires help us assimilate what is wholesome and to eliminate what is non-essential or even toxic.
The path toward good health consists of tending our personal fires with attention and care, which should imbue the so-called mundane actions of our daily lives with refinement and potency.
The first word of the first line of the first hymn of the Vedas is Agni (Fire). That hymn praises the personalized Fire as the chief priest and deity of the sacred sacrifice, and the centrality of Fire to worship has continued to inform the tradition of classical Yoga as well as the tantric yoga technologies of transformation. To view the world through this sacred triangular lens (the triangle being fire's shape) offers us the possibility of profound personal transformation.
Join Scott Blossom and Dr. Robert Svoboda to learn about and experience how we can forge a healthy relationship with both our internal fires and external elemental fire.
