Yoga I

The post-production process was unbelievably slow, especially with the nitpicking craft being done on the still pictures.

About three months of work was needed to make John Smith's walking with ghost scene and the stunning alleyway fight.

Considering that there is more than three hours' worth of content in the whole trilogy, Mark suggested expanding the workshop.

Another building was rented for the split processing of specialized scenes and an extra compound was used for computer specialists that came with them from America.

Old Sullivan's contacts were also able to recruit a ton of willing people that wanted more than a considerable paycheck. All that was left was to weed out who was useful and to completely spread and speed up the complex post-production.

The previous hires were there to show them the ropes on drawing and film still manipulation. The only troubling part is how to make all those teams make one coherent movie along with the sequels.

While Mark was busy taking advantage of the Bollywood talents from the lower sectors of the Caste system and underappreciated computer nerds, Sullivan and Alexander were busy touring India.

There were controversies about an Indian nuclear bomb being met with backlash from North Americans sparkling tension but it was nowhere near affecting the nouveau rich like the Creeds, specifically the powerful yet outwardly senile Sullivan.

The duo was exploring the secrets of this Asian country and what good place as any to start than the spices, snake dancing, and stiffened rope climbing?

They had the assortments in colors and the varying smells they sprung would completely assault the nose of those who aren't used to it.

Alexander and Sullivan also tried out the local cuisines and as expected, their special spices were present in their specialties.

"Grandpa, this is fun and all but shouldn't we be trying to find the more valuable stuff." Alexander suggested while his grandfather was talking to the guide slash bodyguard.

"Like what?" Sullivan had attention gathered as his grandson has always had some insightful ideas.

"You know, things like the snake whispering, yoga something, and rare ginsengs or whatever that helps improve the quality of life!" The boy listed out as he was curious about finding things that would be lost or obsolete after a decade or so.

"Are you insinuating that I am old and I need to look out for myself?"

"Not at all! At the state you are now, I would believe that you would make it in the hundreds." Alex really had to think twice and consider his old grandpa's sore spot whenever he says something next. "What I am saying is that I at least want to study these country's staple of culture and maybe I'd discover something useful."

"If you say so." Sullivan agreed to his curiosities and told the guide to set his ideas as the course of travel for the day. "You know, Alex! Sometimes I stop to wonder where you get this innovative outlook of yours. I know a child should have one but yours is directed to a certain goal. I haven't even heard of yoga for the times I've been traveling this country and here you are blurting it out on only the second day you've arrived."

"Er... I heard the people at the workshop mumble 'yoga-yoga' during their breaks and I just assumed that it is important. Some of them would even respond with 'Kama Sutra-Kama Sutra'." It was another blunder on his part to mention the currently unpopular yoga and he had to find an excuse by blowing it up to higher proportions. "I don't understand their language but repeating it a lot must mean something. What exactly do yoga and Kama Sutra mean, grandpa?"

Sullivan had to cough up a bit when his grandson asked that question. He had the same line of curiosity as the boy and when he asked his associates about it, the Indian delegates had some people demonstrate it right in front of his very eyes. "Alexander, Kama Sutra is taboo for your age, don't ask about it again until you are an adult!"

The old man remembered how a lower-class couple was doing it and his Indian friend was explaining it to him as if it was some sort of science. It was a weird experience during his younger years and he didn't want his grandson to relive it at such a young age.

"But, why? I am an adult in heart and mind. I'm sure I can take it." Alexander insist while Sullivan stubbornly steered clear of that topic while their tour was ongoing.

Young Alex was only teasing him of course. He had to take his grandpa's mind about knowing yoga without someone mentioning it to him. He employed the strategy of lying and shifting it to another topic and what better way than the erotic innuendos of the Indian Sex Book?

Who knew that he would be spot on and Alexander could basically tell that his grandpa has some hidden stories regarding that juicy topic.

However, it is also true that he was looking forward to getting his hand on the art of yoga.

It would become popularized and widespread like Zumba and aerobics, surging the tide for women to flock to the next big thing to make them physically and mentally healthy.

That was all the hubbub of the future but Alexander had different thoughts about the yoga of today. With Sullivan's reaches, the boy wanted to scour out the true practice of yoga and not the commercialized one.

There must be a hidden reason for its founding and continuing presence since its birth from a thousand years ago.

Other Joe watched Jackie Chan's Kung Fu Yoga and now that Alex was at its birthplace, it triggered the conspiracy and power fanatic in him.

He was so excited to find out the real mysteries of the yoga art that the indulgent Sullivan had to prioritize going to an Indian sanctuary.

The guide tells him that the place was a gathering of his countrymen that wanted to immortalize, study, and improve the art.
