RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Creative Visualization — Part 2

Change your pictures and change your life

The pictures we hold in mind significantly influence our experience of life. Our mental concepts affect our progress and eventual success. Practice creating images which can open and free you to experience and express Spirit.

Classes in Higher Yogas, Guided Practices

“I Am a Great Yogi”

In the early stages, the ego component of the Self is the one trying to do yoga. After faithful practice, yoga begins to center in the soul. If you’re finding yourself blocked or frustrated in some way, your pictures are likely inadequate and working against your progress. It is vital, therefore, to create a better picture.

Often people can be faint-hearted when they start yoga. Yogis advise meditators to go beyond ego limitations by holding this visualization:  I am a great yogi — my soul is already a great yogi.

  • Our pictures are the concepts of self and life which greatly influence us
  • When life is challenging, examine and upgrade your pictures
  • Learn guided visualizations which work with ego, mind, emotions and energy
  • Explore practices which lead to soul realization and soul expression
  • Allow your pictures to bring new states of awareness, joy and fulfillment
  • Enjoy a guided visualization

How to Succeed

As you may know, we do not charge for our courses. All Yoga World content is free and available to you with our blessings. However, we do have a simple, but important request that’s key to the transformations necessary to succeed on the path.

We ask you to commit two hours a week to selfless service. This service can be anything you choose ranging from helping a family member or neighbor to volunteering at a nonprofit organization.

I Commit to Serve

This commitment is solely between you and your inner self.

Why the Commitment?
