Come and Sit
Come and Sit
A price was never the point, and we would rather you were sitting.
In San Diego there is a woman named Laura who has sewn these mats for years. In Canada, Neelam sews them too. Silk over wool, cotton between, made the way the Guru specified. They are paid properly for the work. That is most of what you pay when you buy one.
Not a margin, but a wage, a material, and an hour of someone's care.
And still, a price is a price, and some of you have written to say it is beyond you.
We are a shop and not an ashram, and we do not pretend otherwise. But the seat is not decoration. It is where the practice happens, and it should not be the thing that stops you.
So if an asana for meditation is out of reach, write to us. Tell us which piece, and what you are able to offer.
Whatever you feel you can offer given all we have shared, we will be honored to work with you in providing one for your sadhana.
Receive it and meditate on it. That would be our sincerest ask. The Guru valued the depth of a disciple's meditation above the sums given to the work.
