john is probably a great guy, but sleeping with students is not a great idea. if he had to keep it secret, then he must know something is wrong. personally, i'd lay some pipe in every hot little yogin just as he did. but i would brag about it, not hide it!
good luck john. your yoga has made my life a better place to be.

Bob: Apparently you are new to Anusara
I teach and have been a student of Hatha and Anusra for ten years. I'm also Buddhist. The subtlety of any philosophy cant be taught through words or scriptures they have to be experienced.
That is not a bad thing; that you can not learn it from 'traditional sources'.
It's great because its a kind of gnosis that you can show experientially!
At the heart, grace is a non duality. A balance. Obviously you are right about being able to relate to a Rush Limbaugh. Is that some how a bad thing? Your assumption that you are right about your world view and John or eve Rush Limbaugh are wrong, just shows you are just as stuck in a dualistic nature as anyone.
Thats fine, we all are to some degree. That does not mean we cant try to live with grace. "Open to Grace."
