Hi Hamed,

Totally understood. This is something people have learn. When you visit a place that has different customs than you do at home don't insult the hosts. Take the time to read about the customs and language of people you visit. As for the Bible Belt - the same is true. "When in Rome do as the Romans do." Amos is able to teach yoga without problems, so just drop the Sanskrit and forget the mantras. People will respond to yoga better if you go with the flow. No need to make waves.

Peace,
