Karma Yoga

Today our class did another session of karma yoga. This time we planted trees. We split into two groups: the first group would take the wrapper off the trees and put them into holes that were already dug. The second group would follow the lady down the street. The first group didn’t sound very exciting, so I went with the second group.

It turns out the second group had to plant trees inside a swamp. We walked through the thigh-high water, our feet sinking a foot with each step. It was gross, but once we got used to it, it was actually kinda fun.

We got back and the first group looked pristine. We looked like we survived a mudslide. We are bad ass.

Speaking of karma, I don’t seem to get mosquito bites much anymore. I guess the hundreds of bites I got during my meditation retreat cleansed me of all my bad mosquito karma.
