Namaskar Everyone,

Many thanks for recognizing Holi as a Festival of Unity. Holi makes a good reach across India to anyone of any religion. All are welcome to celebrate. This is the international message of yoga: "Unity." It's important to understand that people are different, but to appreciate those differences. This is one of yoga's many gifts - the gift of acceptance. Yoga teachers come from all countries, all religions, all social classes. Just because another yoga teacher belongs to a different association is no reason to create division. There are many, many Gurus who don't join with associations because of politics and infighting. Teach yoga because you love it and never be afraid to put division aside. Keep this thread alive and don't forget the Holi celebration of spring and unity.

Peace to all of you.
Priyah
