That full moon last night #karthikeyapournima, a day to worship #Pitr, dead ancestors. A day of Karthika, the god of war and son of Lord shiva. A day where goddess #Tulsi is worshipped. A day when Krishna dances #rasa with Radha and worships her. The birthday of #matsya an avatar of Shiva. The Diwali of gods. So many stories, all with significance in Yoga. . #beyondasanas #yogalifestyle #indianmythology #yogamythology #epicstories #ancestorveneration #sanatanadharma #wisdom #ancientculture #vedicwisdom #festivalsofindia #devdiwali #yogateacher #notjustasana #honortherootsofyoga https://www.instagram.com/p/CIOUjhVDtDu/?igshid=g4gan9fujf13
