Spirit Establishes a Contact

In devout scripture reading, Spirit establishes a contact between the heart of the reader and the heart of the author. Spirit transcends time and space in every physical circumstance. You commune in the divine mystery with the one who is sharing God-experience with you. Be open to receiving these blessings through time spent with holy books.

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.
