RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

What Do You Want?

Can one shift from body identification to spiritual awareness?

Through yoga practice we seek to turn within to contact the atman, the true self. Meditation and other yogic practices allow us to better understand life’s events and choose a course which leads to fulfillment. Discover how you can contact the inner self and allow its wisdom and love to express in your life.

Sunday Morning Talks

Turn Within

Through yoga study, meditation and insight, we begin to understand and accept responsibility for the internal and external chaos in our life. We seek to change our direction. Having often been focused on matter, confusion and delusion, we now wish to return to Spirit.

We aim to turn our consciousness away from identification with the body/mind and move toward attunement with the inner self, the perfect atman.

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?
