Zelator asana Tremors and Saucer

[gerry456]

The Zelator grade is said to be attained fully when their chosen asana produces no tremors after one full hour of yoga. The test was said to be achieved when a saucer full of water placed on the head spills not one drop within that hour. Is this a Crolweyan practical joke?

[Jim Eshelman]

No.

However, some people have very round heads so that it wouldn't balance if they were dead and in rigor mortis. Alternative means are sometimes needed for testing.

"Saucer" means a British saucer of the day - more like a shallow soup bowl than a miniature plate.

Like a hacksaw, or what?

[Jim Eshelman]

Precisely! (Much better control than an axe.)

Obviously one needs also to study all the appropriate material for the previous grade, though, right? If not, I would imagine any Guiness Book of World Records endurance feat would be worthy of the Zelator grade.
