Estávamos a terminar a aula da tarde, já com poucos praticantes a acabar o descanso.

We were finishing the afternoon class, with few practitioners still ending the rest.
I was on the mat, in the beginning of the Shala, stretching some part of the body that had felt tense during the teaching time. Between breathing and feeling the body to release, I was saying good-bye to another one of the students that were about to leave. Each time I turned my head to the left side to wave or smile at one of the students who were about to leave, I noticed that in the small entrance room, it was a student sitting on the floor, with her hands in her suitcase, opened a notebook and took something from there, to stand in front of the shelves that have photos of Guruji, of Sharath, mine, but also pictures of my favorite Hindu Gods. She was still standing there in front of the pictures, until I saw her putting something in a frame that was empty. From inside the Shala and inside of one of my stretching positions, I asked her with a smile, "Ines, what you put there?! It was the Holy Lady?!" and she, smiling, "Yes ...". And she told me the name of the Holy Lady, that it was hard to memorize, it wasn´t in portuguese and it seems that i m increasingly deaf, but I remember her explaining that she performed miracles. We laughed the two, I thanked her, she went away, and I continued on my short sequences of recovery and stretching. Choose 4 or 5 positions, sometimes less because of the short time, and i let myself stay, breathe, release tensions, any uncomfortable by the physical effort of teaching, or because i surf more, or as preparation for a few moments where i will sit and meditate before going home. When I finished, I got up and went to see Holy Lady, in the image appears a prayer, i read every word and asked for blessing for me and for the Shala and for those people who are part of this house. Thank you Inês, regardless of our religion, preferences, tastes, beliefs ... that Our Holy Lady sustain our practices, watch over all of us in this inner journey of Self-discovery, allowing deepen and better understand these sequences of postures, to completely immerse in the potential of being human beings, better humans.
