RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

The Heart Aches to Know Why

Yes, you can know why you have taken a birth!

Our hearts and minds crave to know the purpose and meaning of life. Answering these deep questions often brings peace. Yogis seek answers through attunement with higher wisdom, using a step-by-step process. You can experience accomplishment, joy and peace as you discover what your soul was born to express.

Sunday Morning Talks

The Soul Knows

Yoga practices help us go beyond our normal patterns of thinking and feeling. As we release worries, opinions, memories, anger, fear, grief and arrogance, we can enter into the harmony of body, mind and spirit. Abiding in this harmony and wholeness, we can contact the soul, our spiritual essence.

Our soul knows why we have taken a birth. It knows why we live here and now. It understands our karmas — the consequences of what we have thought, felt, said and done in the past — and which are now coming back as various surprise packages. Our core self is aware of our gifts and talents, as well as the lessons we still need to learn. It reveals our purpose, mission, and the possibilities of this life.

  • Peace and joy come from knowing the purpose of your life
  • Yoga practices are designed to help release physical tension/mental turbulence and experience the harmony of body, mind and spirit
  • As we abide in a state of harmony, answers often come through intuitions and flashes of awareness
  • Yogis use a step-by-step process to contact the wise inner self
  • Practice and training may be necessary to go beyond any thoughts of self-importance or fantasies coming from the subconscious
  • Yogis have found that we are born to bring goodness to our families, friends and all who cross our path

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?
