Ode to Asanga, 24 May 2000

Oh! Asanga Asanga -a true yoga master
No one can laugh harder or faster
Coz you are an Avatar of laughter and joy
A man with a moustache but the naughtiness of a boy

You're a trickster, a flexi-man and a groovy teacher,
A funky friend of yoga and a good meditation preacher You are helping people to find their peace within
To bend and stretch and wiggle their thing
You are a star, an angel, a Yogic joker
And you know how to give

You are a perfect advert for how to shine when you are alive

Thankyou for showing us 'asanas' and poses
And even when we're out of breath and it ain't all roses
We still love every moment we're learning with you

Oh! Asanga Asanga - this much is true
Keep smiling, loving, turning and twisting
Surrender that love and abandon all resisting
Shine on! Yahoo! Halelulya! Whoop way,
Asanga Asanga
Enjoy every day!
