Brahmacarya has long been on the list of dristi subjects, but not until now have we had the guts to<br />
actually present it. Probably because I, like many others, didn’t understand what it was all about.<br />
Fortunately our eloquent contributors: Frank, Paul and Yogesvara, do. And I trust you will too after<br />
reading their articles.<br />
namaskar<br />
You’ll find a truly diverse offering in this issue: from workshop reviews, practical tips for being<br />
Greener, how to get into that crazy Garbha Pindasana, combating jet lag, to the terrible plight of<br />
widows in India. Thanks to the generosity of these and the other writers, <strong>Namaskar</strong> continues to<br />
grow.<br />
Thanks in advance also to our new, talented and enthusiastic bunch of volunteers: Rob Ferguson<br />
(publishing and advertising guru), Joanna Pearce (editor extraordinaire), Wai Ling Tse (thoughtful<br />
scribe), Carol Adams (administrative queen), Jyothi Fong (free-spirited columnist) and Ken Wong<br />
(ready, willing and very able). They will be helping with writing, editing, advertising, photography and<br />
administration to make this publication more informative and interesting to you all. If you know<br />
them or meet them, please don’t hesitate to let them know what you’d like to read more of in these<br />
pages.<br />
They are stepping off their mats to share and spread their love of yoga. And I hope you will too by<br />
attending Evolution 11 - 14 June in Hong Kong. Even if you only have time for one workshop or<br />
lecture, please do show your support for this important event. And if you’re in a belt-tightening phase,<br />
there are loads of free events as well.<br />
And if you are able to travel to Bali, consider attending the multi-dimensional BaliSpirit Festival later<br />
this month. Looks like a great few months of yoga coming up!<br />
