Ramakrishna Ananda

Not Finding Meaning in Life?

Find greater meaning by opening to the divine within you

Have you ever asked yourself, “Why am I here?  What’s my purpose in life? What’s life all about?” We ask ourselves these kinds of questions when we are troubled by the events of life.  Unfortunately, few find the answer.

The approach, focus and practices which the great yogi, Sri Ramakrishna, shared will show you how to realize for yourself what’s most important in life.

Sri Ramakrishna and the Meaning of Life

Before Sri Ramakrishna came along, the supreme goal of life, as viewed by yogis, was to achieve moksha or liberation, liberation from the bondages of birth, death and rebirth. This freedom comes by realizing God, the infinite, divine Spirit within us, around us, and in everyone. In realizing Spirit, we find the meaning of life. Through this understanding, life begins to have great personal meaning.

Is Your Life Full of Meaning?

Find greater meaning by opening to the divine within you

Yogis say that by opening ourselves to an experience of Spirit, the Divine within us, we can find true meaning in life. Find out what you need to do to awaken spiritually and to allow infinite consciousness to express through your thoughts, words and actions every day.

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?
