Saturday, September 20—Maha Sadhana Intensive for Teachers & Dedicated Students w/Chandra
5:30pm-8:30pm
This posture purification session is based on the Shiva Namaskar advanced vinyasa series. This is the practice Chandra teaches to her regular students in her weekly classes. At its core is the complete movement of the spine in order to unleash the life force within it. It is challenging yet meditative. The advanced series is a unique, beautiful and vigorous sequence, incorporating many of the little known postures and their advanced variations. As you are guided into a state of Sattva, your intuitive virtues and creativity are activated. Sattva, a state of mind where the notions of ‘I’ and ‘mine’, the ‘doer’, and delusion are all absent, will be shown to all participants through thoughts of renunciation, dispassion, reverence, Self-realization, surrender to the Lord, and love to help you make progress quickly. The postures are performed gracefully, so fantastic feelings of inner calm and self-control are felt immediately. With regular practice, health & stamina are attained & Self-realization can easily follow. Chandra is a master of helping students of all levels lose their fear and become steadfast Yogis in this practice. Personal attention and helpful hints are given throughout the session as well as direction toward the true goal of Yoga. For Intermediate thru Advanced Yogis, though all are welcome, and may work at your own pace. Chandra will help you according to your abilities and needs.

Saturday, September 27—Divine Kirtan w/Lakshmi
6:00pm-7:30pm
A kirtan is a spiritual gathering in which sacred mantras are chanted usually in a call and response fashion for the purpose of elevating one’s consciousness closer to our true nature, pure Bliss. Chanting mantra moves one beyond the mind and body, beyond thought and into the Self. It is not something that can be explained in words, it can only be experienced. No musical background necessary, and in fact it does not even matter if the notes are sung correctly. The real practice of chanting mantra comes from offering whatever you have in your heart as devotion to God.
$10 Pre-Registration ONLY |
