Not only does compass pose oil the hips joints but we begin to question the true meaning of the pose. The Oxford English dictionary defines the word Compass as a device used to determine geographic direction, showing the direction of magnetic north and as a device for drawing circles, to encircle, or to surround. It is also interesting to consider that the next word found listed in this dictionaries after compass is ‘compassion’. Once we re-discover our purpose and our direction and are able to embody that purpose, then the only thing left to concern ourselves with is to enlarge our being to encompass or encircle all others as a yogi knows, there is only ONE.
