Austin, Texas & by Telephone/Email Birth begins before conception, and every woman is her own Midwife. For women who are consciously present to their labor & birthing, it is the equivalent to seven years of meditation. ~ Jeannine Parvati Midwife, Prenatal Yoga Author Mother of six 1949-2005 Women have an advantage over men because women have more supple minds. The tendency to be more emotional is not a hindrance to practice. Just watch the emotions and don't identify, deepen your concentration. It may be difficult for men to understand this, because they are men. The Buddha was a man, and Christ was a man, so there is hope for men too. ~ Nani Bala Barua, "Dipa Ma" Master vipassana teacher, Mother of three 1911-1989 Wisdom is knowing things in different ways. ~ Guatama the Buddha from Patisambhidamagga Atthakatha I.1.1. Nanakatha |
