Prague edition 1 - Princess Kolobiska and la contadina furba - Yoga happens in the junction
I am in the beautiful capital of Bohemia, not far from the Vltava river. In this episode I share a story of Princess Kolobiska, the young woman who knows how to find the sure way through even seemingly impossible situations by finding the middle path. This story from Czech folklore I know better from Italo Calvino’s Fiabe Italiane, where it is one of my favourites, the story of Caterina - La Contadina Furba.
In this episode, with reference to these yogic folk stories, to Prague and to the Bhagavad Gītā, I talk about how yoga happens in the junction.
