Calming the mind with meditation can takes us to a state of inner peace — an important quality of our soul. Also, yogis have identified a major factor which is crucial to our experience of peace:  craving or attachment.

Drawing on the profound teachings of Sri Aurobindo, this five-part series explores how Integral Yoga helps dissolve the false self and awaken the deeper consciousness that is your true nature.

For many people, life feels like an endless search — for happiness, purpose, peace, or fulfillment. Yet Swami Vivekananda taught that the greatest discovery is not something we acquire, but something we awaken to. Through jnana yoga, you can begin to recognize that beneath the restless mind and changing circumstances shines the unchanging light of the Infinite Spirit.

Swami Vivekananda’s jnana yoga teachings invite us to ask life’s deepest questions: Who am I? Why do I suffer? What is my true nature? This eight-part series explores how you can go beyond identifying with the restless mind and endless desires to realizing the infinite Spirit that is your true Self.
