The Truth About Yoga!
Channel: Esoteric Atlanta
Date: 2021-10-13

Normally, on Wednesdays we recap our missing books of the Bible series from the Dark OutPost, but per David’s request, before we start our new book, we are going to discuss yoga.  There is a lot of misinformation and propaganda out there about yoga, and today is a wonderful opportunity to briefly explore this old and sacred practice.   

The lineage I follow is Ashtanga.  This is the lineage we will be talking about today, as it’s the one I am educated in and the one I teach and practice.  Please do your own research when picking which lineage you want to practice, if you decide to practice.  

Also, please note, when practicing yoga, you should be practicing under the tutelage of teacher. If you try any yoga at home, you are doing so at your own risk.

"Martha Knight’s Sisyphean task

The Novak family was finally safe, having escaped the clown-world Earth to a civilized alternate Earth. It’s not a metaphor thought up at a clever creative writing session. They had escaped by stepping through an actual shimmering portal, kind of like the Stargate, I suppose. What you’re about to read  is a novel the Novaks wrote in their new reality. The book is loosely based on what they had gone through. Why write? Well, what better way to deal with trauma than writing about it?

And they’d been through a lot, believe me. Not something most psychotherapists would understand.


The Novaks had a literary agent - Martha Knight. An American in her late 40s, she was tirelessly working to turn the novel into a bestseller. Sadly, Martha’s job seemed like a Sisyphean task at times. Let’s just say the novel needed a lot of work. Martha knew the truth about the family but she saw it as – yet another – layer of fiction, a shrewd publicity stunt to create an aura of overly convoluted mystery. Needless to say, it was a healthy psychological response. The poor literary agent had no idea who she was really dealing with as she analyzed every single word in the novel. .
