JULY HOLIDAY SCHEDULE:
Every year, Bikram Choudhury asks that all Bikram Yoga studios close their doors on the 9th of July (the day of his passing) in honour of his guru, Bishnu Ghosh (younger brother of Paramahansa Yogananda). Below is an exerp from the book "Bikram Yoga":
"In February 1970 I left India and went to Japan, for what was supposed to be six months, to take care of some things there for my guru. I didn't want to go - I was a king in Bombay! But when your guru tells you to do something, you have to do it. That's it. You have no choice. As I was about to get on the plane at Calcutta Airport, my guru took my hand and told me something, in English, which he never spoke. "Promise me you will complete my incomplete job," he said. He meant bringing yoga to the rest of the world, to the West and America. And I replied, "Yes, I promise. I will." Forty years later I'm here in the United States, still performing my Karma Yoga by fixing Broken bodies and screw-loose brains."
"When Bishnu Ghosh bound me in that oath, I had no way of knowing it would be the last time we spoke. Soon thereafter my guru talked to all his family and friends, gave them his blessings, and said that he would soon take his rest. he then performed mahasamadhi, withdrawing his Spirit from his body and leaving this Earth at the age of 67."
"Looking back, I can't help feeling sad, mostly because I miss him every second of every day with every ounce of my heart. But I'm also sad because I forgot to ask him how long I am supposed to continue teaching Hatha Yoga to fulfill my Karma Yoga! Do I have to keep doing this for my entire life? With no guru to answer me, I have to conclude that the answer is yes. To which I say, "No problem!"
