Thanks for reminding us. Our strength and flexibility should humble us, but theres often someone looking round the room checking they're doing it better than anyone else. Obviously in the west we are so obsessed with outward appearances and our sense of sight that we cant really blame ourselves for physical competitiveness. Breathing really helps. Emphasis on the breath brings us inside ourselves.
i like how you said, "Our strength and flexibility should humble us..." So true, and so sadly lost in much of what is mainstream these days. What does humility look like in a pose?
