While commerce has the stunning quality of being to our lives like water is to the lives of fish, nevertheless we don't have gills that make us more or less suited to living immersed in commerce.
The type of yoga that would make us more adept at living in the world of commerce would train us to a) manage and be managed, b) keep gazillions of price comparisons in our heads at one time, c) help us be tolerant of every form of human diversity, d) train us to accept the world in only empirical terms and most importantly of all e) improve our bookkeeping skills.
Bookkeeping is the grammar of commerce, money-pricing is the language.
