yeah, janet? >> i was invited by the kidney foundation to do a little yoga workshop demonstration, and after i was all finished with this hour-long presentation, do you know what they said they liked the best? the chanting. an hour of yoga? they don't care. but they said, "wow, we really liked that chanting you did!" so then it was kind of that ritual thing was very attractive - just sort of innately attractive to them. >> it is, because it's the doing and the movement, and that's come up in this class before too. meditation is fine, and talking about meditation, it is a kind of ritual, but a singing, a dancing, a chanting seems to - quicker, if you're not uninitiated, take you out of your ordinary sense of self and into an extraordinary thing. we've tried this in a couple instances in this class, which is a totally controlled environment here, but yet people have said, in a few guests we've had, a few activities we've had, people have begun to feel an actual tangible change in their sense of self

yes, janet? we're going to get to you. >> i just wanted to mention about that holy month of ramadan. there are other various islamic holidays scattered throughout the year, and when- some of my students are practicing muslims, and when they come up to me and they say, "i won't be here for class on thursday because such and so is happening," i'm thinking, okay, it's a major holiday, as if somebody said, "i won't be there on christmas." i shouldn't be shocked. i just say, "okay. you're dismissed; we'll make up the work." but if we want to have a global community, which is what my community college is striving for, we need to really be more flexible about people having holidays in different faiths. i think it's very close- minded of some institutions to say only honor certain faith holidays and not other faith holidays. >> and you know, i think you're quite right and i think that's up to community. you know, we go back to community there. now if we're in detroit, and we have a high school, which we

let me go to you, janet. go ahead. >> oh, i thought you said janet. it's an observation there, but i can see, for a person in india, where they sleep and die on the streets, they drink the water from the sacred river which is floating with filth, and the other oriental cultures where they're teeming people, that pain and suffering is a part of their culture every day - therefore, the religion satisfies them by saying that sometime in the future, if they will tolerate it here, they can earn something more. that is also, i think, a reason why they don't try to be more than whatever group they were born to, because they know if they can - this is what they have to go through and understand, and then they'll get ahead. so that for them, their whole way of life responds to those particular two religions - hinduism and buddhism. >> well, now, i think that we see suffering certainly in that culture - i mean, it's culture-based. but i think the suffering - the way i envision it - you're quite right about the cultural observation. the way i envision it is more
