The news is serving up fresh steaming hot cups of crazy…I’ve had 4.5 hours sleep, and Big Rock Friday VIII returns at 4 pm, with [I think] some slight modifications as I tinker around with it on this cloudy June morning.
As Yuri says, WWWWWWOOOOOOWWWWW
I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited in my whole life: my application for Anusara Certification has been accepted. Please note this doesn’t mean I’m certified, merely that the formal process of certification can begin in earnest, but man: does it ever feel good to be moving forward, and to be welcomed by the community and my teacher in this way. My eyes shuttered open at 5:15 am, which is not the Sjanz’s style in any way, and that was it; whatever weird combination of adrenalin and jacked-up brain waves makes kids not go to sleep on Christmas Eve is coursing through my veins, and this Summer Solstice is turning out to be running on all six cylinders.
I feel like jumping around in my pyjamas, so I’m gonna go do that for a while. Hope to see you at 4!

Hope Says:this is ohsoveryawesomenews!! thanks for sharing the elation. I want to say congratulations, but–as in the case of a very cool chick who’s set to marry–instead, I direct this to anusara headquarters and say: MAN–YOU’RE LUCKY! WHADDA CATCH!

Sylvia Says:2 things…
1. When do you get your “assigned certification assessor”? Any idea who it’ll be? Do you get to pick?
2. I still think this Ethical Guideline could stand to be rephrased or better explained:
Brahmacharya (Walking or having ethical conduct like God): Relating to another with unconditional love and integrity, without selfishness or manipulation. Practicing sexual moderation, restraining from sexual misconduct, and avoiding lustful behavior. Celibacy/chastity.

Sylvia, this is all super new to me so I don’t have a timeline per se…I do know that once I fulfill the video requirements to my mentor’s satisfaction then I send the video in and then I get assigned my assessor, or at least that’s how it seems from reading the material. So let’s say as soon as possible!!
What’s yer beef with brahmacharya? You don’t think I have the chops for celibacy seeing as how M and I cohabitate?

Sylvia Says:Hey, you do whatchoo wanna do with your cohabitator – I’m just tryin’ to wrap my head around trying to follow this philosophy myself!
