There must be hundreds of yogis who sat at desks and ran 
errands for their gurus while receiving training to be a 
yogi. For example, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, India's most 
famous Hatha Yogi, spent years running errands for his 
guru, Sri T. Krishnamacharya. Apparently Jois spent 
years sitting behind a desk at Indian public schools.

This is a smear against all Indians and Tibetans who 
have migrated to Texas. For a 'yogi' you sure are
prejudiced against people based on residential status.
Talk about a 'red herring'!
