P Jois gave up his physical practice as a form of sacrifice after his eldest son died. as to the "fat" you should see Iyangar who in his late 80's and with a belly, can do amazing physical asanas.plus its an interview, so smarten up.

Yoga is universal. Do your practise and all is coming.My teacher said to me: " Do things that feel good, don´t doanything that you feel bad" that was a very good advice. Only you self know what is good or bad to you.Best wishes yogi Kurunam

We mixed yoga and religion ( truth and love ) to make a betterworld cause this world is " perseestä ". You can just go on withyour practise maybe one day you´ll get the selfknowledge.I am so sorry that my english is not so very good!You can do some theory with Patanjali.

Satya Meva JayateYajur Veda 40:9 says,"They are in darkness and are steeped in ignorance and sunk in the greatest depths of misery who worship the uncreated, eternal prakrti-the material cause of the world-in place of the All-pervading God, but those who worship visible things born of the prakrti, such as the earth, trees, humans bodies in place of God are enveloped in still greater darkness are extremely foolish, fall into an awful hell of pain and sorrow, and suffer terribly for a long time"

Gabrinkas, it is an interesting point you make. If you knew this Yogi you would know that he actually speaks very little as a rule. He is also over 90 years old.

Yes, Krishnamacharya and Jois developed the Ashtanga series from the old texts. They did a lot of adapting. Krishnamacharya, along with Jois and Krishnamacharya's brother-in -law B.K.S. Iyengar, have been influential on modern day hatha yoga.
