Buying Dharma (epub)

A short essay. Pay what you want. Name your own price. (Gumroad's minimum in $0.99) How do we navigate the tensions between yoga and consumerism? As yogis we want to let go of attachments, as consumers we want hot Lululemon clothing. But these things are not as far apart as they seem. Buying Dharma is about the way modern postural yoga helps us live with the contradictions between our rhetoric and our actions. Jordan Shapiro takes a look at Yoga from a depth psychological perspective. He offers a brutally honest and sometimes funny account of yoga in the 21st Century. Really, enter whatever price you want. Pay 99 cents or more, your choice.
