[Tea w Patanjali / te m Patanjali]

Abt. 1500 years ago Patanjali wrote – or compiled - ”Yoga Sutras – how to know God”.

For ca. 1500 år siden skrev – eller samlede – Patanjali ”Yoga Sutras – hvorledes man lærer Gud at kende”.

the Patriarch bends to pry
a sutra from his shoe

Patriarken bøjer sig for at lirke
en sutra ud af skoen

towards his pet clouds


gåtur med Patanjali -

over hans kæle-skyer
