Bikram v Charlie Sheen

Hello beautiful yogis/yoginis/persons/aliens/iguanas/all. Thanks for popping into my blog! I wanted to share a page I recently stumbled upon at yogadawg.com. that was hilarious and very informative. Its a list of quotes by Charlie Sheen and the founder of Bikram yoga, Bikram Choudhury.

For those of you who may not know, Bikram Yoga is the type of yoga that is set in a high temperature room, about 105 degrees  Fahrenheit, and consists of 26 asanas (poses) that are the same for every practice.  But for all intensive purposes, its not really the practice we're going to get into, is the man behind the the heat: Mr. Bikram Choudury.  Bikram has established a reputation for being a bit...ummm...Grand.  Grand in the sense that he has over 40 Rolls Royces and Bentleys; Grand in the sense that he claimed to have taught the Beatles, Richard Nixon, and Pope Paul VI  (none of these claims have been confirmed); and Grand in the sense that he pretty much sees himself as the greatest thing since sliced bread (which come on, is insanity because slice bread was something called a game changer and I've yet to see anything rise to the occasion since...i guess the ipad is a close second). BUT,  with all his Grandness, that's not to say that maybe he hasn't earned it; everyday new people flock to the Bikram method of Yoga because they dig the intensity, the sweat, the challenge...I totally understand.
....I just think his grandiose reputation is awesome to watch and it makes me chuckle, which I like. 

Also, for those who may not know, Charlie Sheen is an American actor who waves his freak flag all over town, and with impeccable pride and commitment. Just for good taste, lets toss in some Charlie Sheen quotes for today's entry:
  1.  “I’m so tired of pretending my life isn’t perfect and bitching and just winning every second and I’m not perfect and bitchin’.”
  2. "I am on a drug, it's called Charlie Sheen. It's not available because if you try it you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body."
  3.  "If you’re a part of my family, I will love you violently."
  4. And of coarse, "Winning."
So needless to say....yes. So much yes. 
.

But to the point:  When reading the quotes below, your job is to guess whether Charlie Sheen said it or Mr. Choudhury said it.  (PS: the answers are at the bottom).

I copied and pasted it down below, but I'll also leave the link riggggght here > http://www.yogadawg.com/quiz5.htm

I hope you enjoy! If you don't like it, feel free to let me know, just don't be a jerk about it please. Thanx.  Happy Holidays to all and to all a Bhakti night. MUAH!
