people  must realize, violation of privacy, of anothers life, lessens the grown and actually ends real 'sharing' of good energy.the yoga mat is a magic carpet to new worlds within our conciseness,our minds,hearts and souls.it can be a veil or a topcoat, or a shimmering acknowledgement of our aura space engulfing and enhancing our journeys.in a good yoga class the whole class energy drives the 'work' of the exercise and helps the energy flow, while everyone enjoys their own personal private space.the Hopi first nation peoples dress like Katchinas, and do ritual dances for days, these clothes are magical and so is the Kiva where the tribe meets. everyone dances in their own space but with others, it is very magical and healthy.they beleive it saves the world, has do monks doing vespers in Ireland or Buddhist turning prayer wheels in Napal, these sacred spaces that we all have ,when allowed to flow ,i believe do great good and add to healing, joy and understanding. when violated they are an insult to humanity.we first nation say 'go in beauty' the Jewish blessing is 'may your going out and coming in be blessed' the pollen path first nation people often walk may even originate in India where it now believed most folks that immigrated out of Africa first went when populating the b=globe.i leave you with this, when i was young i had a wonderful horse i loved. a wise strong kind animal, full of love and merriment, she was very big[19 hands high!] almost a Belgian ,but she was a wild range horse of mixed stock, she was very smart., usually when riding for fun and to be together i rode saddle less, i actually had a lot of trouble even lifting my big horses saddle!i went bare back, but often used a blanket, it keeps the rider from rubbing on the pony's back. she loved that blanket! she wold she me coming in the morning to do cores, i had to go to school or work but she would nuzzle her blanket wear i always hung it on the wall of her stall, when she saw me. i realize that blanket was a spacial blanket, off white, with a red and blue strip, it was our yoga mat, often in winter in deep snow i would go to the barn, at one end we had an old wood stove and make a fire so the water in the trough would stay fluid and not freeze and put her blanket on her, later i had one for her colt. they gave me and my beloved animal friends a  deep yoga mat like connection, and like Pegasus, they were magic carpets on my magical unicorn, flying horses. i think yoga mats are a deep and wonderful connection with the natural world, and like so much about yoga have so much to teach us! i lost most of this paper, but it is still  a long yoga final. so i put the good stuff first, but the prelude to this was even more important, unfortunately it was lost when i copied it to go to class. i have  decided it  needs to be rewritten anyway, it is a story of incredible suffering, done by violation of privacy for profit, it has destroyed a functional life and done much harm to me, my family and the world, and of course to my art itself. the beauty of the yoga mat can not be underestimated, not that we need an actual physical Yoga mat, our Aura is that shield, that unity. what the prayer rug, the 'robe' [book about Christ, by Douglas] that veil of Isis [book by Helena Blavatsky].yoga for me is connecting the earth energy [the matt] with the cosmic joining through the use of the spiritual movements through from.we make the Mt. Miru, of the Buddhist, here and now in the end less stream that flows with movement, my life is actually very bad and hellish, but i say that not complaining ,but the sheer amount of energy i must use to survive the vioation by others done o me and mine is horrid.and i really do so enjoy life, my kids, art and goodness, it such a waste of not only my art but the cosmic dance time to regenerate the harmony of life. and far worse, the world needs my work on renewable safe i was just interrupted by torture, to use repeated hate violation is truly evil, doing it for over 20 years, tortured. the words of a hoe that  killed her child to me, a mom whose back was broken protecting my child,  me an artist mom with such love for life and children, using the words of a Nazis hoe that tortured her brown child to death, is so sick that there is almost nothing i ever could have done to deserve it. but they actually do deserve this terrible torture to happen to them, that and the poverty they made me endure, for that term i created in 1973 'global warming'is real, and the entire world needs my work on radiation a and energy. they are causing species, whales, Orcas, trees, children, and tigers,etc. to die, it is truly a crime against  the world what they are doing, against all art[or i would be paid my royalties] against all workers, against all love, compassion and growth. the reason i can keep going is i will never be part of it, i did not violate or stock or plagiarize, and never have i done so, yet alone keep doing it, for almost 45 years[maybe more] for stealing, for power and control.of course it is killing the economy, and because all society lives within what we do,it is far far worse. a world with no art, no truth, no honesty can not survive.i cling to life and at times hurt very much, so grateful to have the time and space to do YOGA! a set class, even if life is very hard, to set aside for the journey good energy entering into the body and spirit! when i say without truth, restitution, to me the victim, the violators will have no hope,it is absolutely true....but the innocent none violation part of society needs my work and this form of fascist plagiarism to be stopped!lovely class, i will miss Wednesday, moving stuff,and try to make class next Monday,but the early time and where i am moving too might make it too hard,can i join the class with zoom if i can't walk all the way down from my new mountain place that early? i will find a house soon, i need my own place!i will finish the 2 last class videos and the 2 extra credit videos for the 2 class's including this Wednesday, that i missed.that should make me all caught up, i am glad the first part was lost for you have finals to read and grade, but i will HAVE write it again, and better, because it must be told,have a good summer, i found the missing part, some of it so i have added it on, hope it not too long. the help yoga does me is so wonderful, Namastea, and now again,  Namastea !it has been a very challenging term for me this term. With emphazima and long covid the doing of the actual yoga pactice was real difficult. the pain i have been in as been ex-stream, has had the terrible hardship of breathing, just surviving this intense covid has been incredible. this was all made far worse by the day my slum lord from hell learned i had covid he evicted me. my neighbors, blocked all the water, turning off the taps so they froze. clear back in March in our last cold spell had the pipes frozen, my house was a wreck ,what with trips to the hospital and being too sick too week after week leave my bed.added too that was coming off a year ago when i was assaulted and both my wrists broken. being evicted when one is this sick is terrible beyond belief, the rents have almost doubled in the 11 years i have lived here. in that time i have never went through one day without hate crimes and death beds, 2 cars destroyed by violence, a child i raised almost alone, killed on a bus in Bend Oregon,my flowers destroyed repeatedly,stockd and the victim of some high energy weapon that feels like my guts are being rippedover when it is used.yet i have somehow preserved. i looked for 3 months for any place too rent and having a section 8 i could not go over a $1,150.00 limit, there was almost no places in that range.could i even pace and move this ill/ could i clean the house when i did ,if i could move my stuff andthe sheer dread of could i in that income range find a place? when i first came to Wenatchee a man i rented from on methhow a place i had found when i lived in Tucson and moved up here, wanted to charge me $ over what i got on my section 8 voucher and have me pay him under the table.$150.00 is a lot when one is on SSi, and i had sever crones disease at the time, then i found out he was over charging single moms, rent was too high for the me to find another place u=meeting their voucher limit. they were all  paying him and 'overlooking' his long 'visits with their children, yes the worst was being done. the woman, a sex worker, married to her pimp next door, hed 2 new tins, maybe 6 months old, she bragged 'sorry there is nothing you can do about it and we can do whatever we feel like to use thee 'brats for money'i went everywhere trying to get help, i called childrens protective service, i went to section 8 housing and reported it, i am a live and let live old momma, i have helped rais 5 kids, but never have i heard babied scream like these 2 day and night !while they bragged they could do whatever they wanted to make $ off their kids! when i called the cops it was I that was locked up,on an old warrant for a crime i have never committed in the first place. i spent 30 times more time already that if i had of done the crime because i spoke out against illegal bugging for profit, in my case done to steal intellectual property, writing worth millions were stolen from me. i had been put to death behind bars 3 times,my heart had been stopped on drugs it was known i was allergic too. i owned  a 3 story 2 bathroom house , a car with less than 25 thousand miles on it was blown up and I had been thrown from the car, i had a compound concussion. still i survived, so now in custody, guilty of no crime, either time, i fought extradition, literally for my life.i had both times guards and inmates tell me they had never seen in this country anyone treated has savagely has i was being treated, and there was no doubt both times i was innocent of any wrong doing. when people talk of cruelty to whistle blowers they have no idea what they are saying until they hear what as been done to me, these monster hate at, they want everyone in rock and roll and all music, dead, any art, any truth they want stopped and they all use rape[violation of privacy is rape, and i was tortured long before the 20 past years they have played repeated hate phrase on me, 6 members of my family have been killed to steal my royalties, books, stories, fashion, and music, . i had worked 25 years to by my old house, i had 2 dogs ,5 cats and my a good car, all off writing and performing my own juggling shows,i had done this often working a full time job for years until i was good enough to make a living off my art,i had had cancer 5 times and helped raise 5 kids, only one, because of my cancer, did i have by birth,and me and him enjoyed and had such a wonderful time together, to have lived through such hell and be alive! my cancer was so terrible no one though i would survive his birth, why was i targeted to terrible? because the 5 caners i had were all given to by exposure to nuclear energy and that military industrial complex billion dollar business i had testified against, my testimony saved mullions of lives,but the effects from what i did, i stopped the nuclear industry from being able to dump radiation on farmers fields,was in 1984, i have never had a day without stocking cruelty and harassment sense then.and illegal surveillance is a terrible crime, it is ongoing terror ,stocking and with me the torture o repeated hate crimes,everyone loves my work it has made billions, while i was stocked and threatened, jailed unjustly and my kids threatened. this horror that i have lived through for so many years kept, while i stayed totally celibate, ethical and moral, that strength has kept me alive these past 4 moths when anyone would have just gave up in despair. i do love my children  so! and God, and life, i will not stop doing good in the world for there criminal filth!2 days ago some never do well druggies, that have never done anything with their own lives that have done constant hate crimes to me, who have nothing to do with me, threatened to kill me and feed me to their do.then last week pretended i was just mad because they watered their yard! this is beyond lies and ugliness, they work with at least 2 groups of Latinos doing hate crimes mne that also sell kids for porn,and a known sex offender that has repeatedly threatened my life., he lives across teh strewet and brags about how many kids he has 'owned their ass' it will be good to move, but so disabled and moving to a smaller space with all my stuff, i do art, make juggling equipment, have costumes , equipment, and now a breathing machine to move, well all that and under hate crimes by the scum of the earth!bith my cars were destroyed by vandalism ,so in this urban area i have found a place to moves, scheduled help to move me and will move ,thank God! this Thursday, i won't be in class Wednesday, it is incredible what i am doing!all this time and every day i cry to see my child i faced terminal cancer to bring into the world, and what a wonderful time we had together, God how i miss him!through all this  time i have not been able to publish my work on renewable safe energy, i can not let those violating my life have this work they will ruin it and bury it also, and the world needs it now!the subject of this paper, thank Goodness for yoga!in this terrible pain and sickness i have found when i did Yoga i can breath easier, and feel better, i am not doing the yoga as well as i once did, but the fact i can do it at all is a miracle! i must catch the bus at 6 o'clock so i will write more later, , my subject is ever yoga mat is a sacred prayer rug, and it it also a magic carpet of good energy for a helpful path into good health and a future ! it was just not in India where the idea of a blanket, or mat or prayer rug where used to delegate 'sacred space' this idea is ancient and goes through out many cultures.the ancient Israelite used a homespun one piece of cloth made into a coat,these coats where considered a true items of honor and love, often used to wear in all sorts of weather, o carry things in, and also to sleep in. in poor families the often double has a burial shroud at close of life, they were seen has magical ,sometimes sacred protection, often used for deep meditation and prayer. the Navajoes mad sacred woven rugs and blankets, of ten the incredible symbolism woven into these blankets tells a story or myth, sometimes they were made for an individual  person to use symbols that had extra meaning to their spiritual life journey alone.we seem the some use of the padding and the aprons worn by the devotees to both Buddhism and Hinduism,as well as mixtures of other older Himalayan sects ,in their sacred journeys of devotion circling Mt. Kalish, these are clothing but once again doubling as prayer rugs and encircling the devout with sacred space. the same can be said of capes worn by medicine people and shamans, again laid on the ground for deeo gathering of energy, go farther back in time or change locals and in hunter gatherer societies we see the bear rug serving as a prayer rug, a family totem of protection or even fertility item. children whre oftn laid on the these sacred skins to enhance their own person power and protection, to absord the strength of the bear, the speed of the gazelle, the glory of the tiger, the caution of the deer, etc..it was again of good fortune for chines woman to have a silk cloth to wrap her child and these clothes wear considered magical and protective, as where, otter and rabbit skin clothes for children in northern climates.because of my cancer i had a premature baby, he was healthy and strong but being a autimn born i hadan extra large lama sweater i worewithhim underneath next to my skin, he grew strong and uicky! the nursing shawl formoms to fee their children inprivacy were also magical covers from harm for the baby, andoften great thought was given to their color to respect and enjoy the individual personality of the new bay.the yoga matt is where woman came to give birth, people used them as dinner tables and slept on them, but they were also were one brought joy from the cosmos ,the sky and earth meant, to do sometimes prayer, other times the work of energy movements.  the lovely mat protects our space!the whirling dervishes use their skirt designated area as a space sacred togetheir interplay with the energy of the cosmos, and this goes on and on through our  cultures. garnets rugs, tapestries, mats, the individuals 'safe ' place.a time of privacy weather among others ,as a nuns or monks robes in a cloister, or a yoga class, or a time of quiet peaceful medication, the sacred space,beit on our mat, or just about us, in our home or in public.i can not even begin to understand how i can make people aware if the magnitude of crime that violation, repeatedly, year after year, done with hypocrisy is, how terrible it is to violate anothers sacret space!among my people th Native Americans,we had to often,especiallyin winter share small spaces, thefamily had strick rules about where to look, what to see and how lovelingly give adults privacy when needded for each other, my people [no sirprize here[] were talkers,we openly promoted this privacy andit was part of adeep spiritual heritage. the abomination that violation of privcy is far deeper thanmost peoplerealize,it lessens the grown and actually ends real 'sharing' ofgood energy.the yoga matt is a magic carpet to new worlds within our conciesness,our minds,hearts and souls.it canne a veilor a topcoat, or a shimmering acknologement of our auraha space engulfing and enchancing ourjourneys.in a good yoga class the wholeclass energy drives the 'work' of the excersise and helps the energy flow, while everyone enjoys their own personal private space.the hopi first nation peoples dress likeKatchinas, and do ritual dances for days, these clothes are magical and sois the Kiva where the tribe meets.everyone dances in their own space but with others, it is very magical and healthy.they beleive it saves the world, has do monks doing vespers in Ireland or buddist turning preyer wheels in Napal, these sacret spaces that we all have ,when allowed to flow ,i bevel do great good and add to healing, joy and understanding. when violated they are an insult to humanity. we first nation say 'go in beauty' the Jewish blessing is 'may your going out and coming in be blessed' the pollen path first nation people often walk may even originate in India where it now believed most folks that immigrated out of Africa first went when populating the globe. i leave you with this, when i was you g i had a wonderful horse i loved. a wise strong kind animal, full of love and merriment, she was very big[19 hands high!] almost a belgian ,but she was a wild range horse of mixed stock, she was very smart., usually when riding for fun and to be together i rode saddle less, i actually had a lot of trouble even lifting my big horses saddle! i went bare back, but often used a blanket, it keeps the rider from rubbing on the pony's back. she loved that blanket! she wold she me coming in the morning to do cores, i had to go to school or work but she would nuzzle her blanket wear i always hung it on the wall of her stall, when she saw me. i realize that blanket was a spacial blanket, off white, with a red and blue strip, it was our yoga mat, often in winter in deep snow i would go to the barn, at one end we had an old wood stove and make a fire so the water in the trough would stay fluid and not freeze and put her blanket on her, later i had on for her colt,. i think yoga mats are a deep and wonderful connection with the natural world, and like so much about yoga have so much to teach us!
