Discoveries of Awareness

Mysteries #0 through #4

Mystics seek to realize the cause, essence and source of the universe — and of their own lives. They recognize the limitations of their five senses and of the instruments of science, all of which are unable to reach beyond the material world.

What Power?

    • What great power maintains your life? Your breath? Your heartbeat?
    • Mystics make this quest and delight in the great Ascent.
    • They discover the Infinite Spirit.
    • And, you are invited.

The unrelenting questions and the unappeasable yearning remain within us:

  • What causes and manifests this world of matter?
  • What is the nature of the life force and consciousness which creates and sustains life?

Mystics seek to contact and personally experience the transcendental or spiritual reality from which the universe and all of our lives have being.

How can a person possibly pursue such a lofty goal?

Mystics begin their journey through the Mysteries of Life by appreciating their fellow human beings — and all living beings — as creatures of a great Creator, which they often call the Infinite Spirit. In exploring the world and their own inner awareness they seek to become conscious of the presence and nature of the Infinite Essence.

You begin the mystic journey by directing your awareness toward the creative power of the universe and the source of life within you.

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?
