Thank you as well for allowing yourself to be photographed in ways that capture that feeling. Nude yoga is a difficult topic to handle in a balanced way. One wants to preserve the attitude of the basic goodness of the human body of which sex is an integral aspect. On the other hand, one does not want to pander to those whose focus is only sexual. On the other hand one shouldn’t encourage those whose disgust and fear of the body restricts spiritual growth and self acceptance. I practice yoga nude, usually alone. I have also spent some time at nudist parks. Your recommendations for naked yoga etiquette are precisely what you will find at any nudist club. People do not need to fear improper behavior. When everybody had their clothes off, it’s like nobody does and the same rules of courtesy apply when everyone is naked as when everyone is clothed. Indra,

I always do yoga completely naked, whenever I get time. I used to practice naked yoga from very early age. My middle aged mother, being herself a yoga instructor also does nude yoga completely without any clothes. I feel more liberal and more relaxed doing nude yoga.I strongly support your views. My mother also supports that and she always encourages me to do yoga without any clothes.We should not be ashamed of our naked body. Waiting for your reply.

You need dhyana (meditation) and know about the experience with the body naked. The sex, body and mind must trascend the ego and search the happiness. We need Awareness in practice...day after day...Bhakti JOrge Thank u dear Indra I think that the mistery of the body begins in your soul, if you are naked its not important for the soul, but it is important for your ego.

Some people or let me say MOST people are likely to do naked yoga because of the freedom and the liberation NOT because they want to be stared at. They are comfortable with who they are so are likely to go beyond the mocking. Obviously you have a great deal of respect for other peoples views, Nonsense?(is a strong word) or just a controversial subject that we choose to differ on. thanks for you input, respect Alamgir with thanks

Surely staring is rude. Like a person wearing "skimpy clothes" on say a Friday night whilst out clubbing does that give someone the right to ogle or stare at them? Its not polite. How can looking at a naked body make the "voyeur" or spectator feel liberated? I liberated person is the one sans vetements and not the one staring. How is what the author saying "talking nonsense"?

WHY don't stare? If you are not bothered about being naked in public, why are you bothered about people staring? If you like being naked and feel liberated, why have shackles on other people's eyes, let them also feel free and liberated. If not, then cover up and stop talking nonsense! “Don’t stare – it’s simply not polite!”
