IN MEMORY OF T.K.V. DESIKACHAR, Passed at the age of 78, on August 7thI heard the sad news of Desikachar’s death during a lunch meeting with two friends yesterday and since I’m not a news reader, simply commented, “Thank you for telling me. . . .” Later it hit me what a great loss this was and to so many. I feel privileged to have met and have attended the first Viniyoga Conference in the U.S. which Desikachar and his family were teaching in 2000, and then two more amazing workshops and trainings in 01 and 02, with him, his son, and many senior teachers who studied extensively with him. (See photo above in Estes Park, Colorada, Sonia Nelson and Desikachar. I’m in background.) So fortunate and blessed to have been in his presence when he was still traveling to the U.S. and passing on his father, Krischnamacharya’s teachings. Wow, how truly lucky I am! He was a kind and pleasant man of small stature that had such a HUGE heart and presence that you could feel when he was in the room. Even in a large gathering of people he would take the time to go row by row and look into each of our eyes and greet us with a soft hand shake. He even wore khakis and a button down American made shirt to honor our western culture when he taught us. Sharing these reflections, again, much gratitude!JeanneRead Richard Miller’s reflections here: https://www.irest.us/newsletter/201608/28ease/Desikachar.
