It’s the world that is too big.’ She discussed about the various ways in which Yoga helps one achieve those desired features of life that may have remained dormant so far in our minds or bodies.
TM Krishnesh delivered his ice-breaker speech entitled as ‘Kent’s tijori’ where he took us to his days of schooling amidst the lush greens of his boarding school near Ooti, India. He spoke of his days spent rescuing his classmates from other bullies of the institution and eventually ending up having an army of students who would back him at any and every event required.
