“We need to find a balance between the demand and the capacity.
It needs careful reflection if we want this great teaching to continue.
If we don’t want it to become another museum we have to check our work and care for the future.
Many organisations with a vertical structure have collapsed.
Our structure must not be vertical.”
– TKV Desikachar speaking with his senior Western students London 1998
Paul, could you let me know who the 16 are?
Hi Peter
Just catching up on comments. Desikachar asked me during a study stay in 1997 to organise and co-ordinate in London what in essence was a private meeting with his senior students personally invited by him. Given these criteria it doesn’t feel appropriate to publish an open access list as to those who were (or perhaps by deduction who were not?) part of this gathering.
Best wishes
Paul
