RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Awaken to Unending Unity

Feel connected to everyone

In meditation yogis have discovered a wondrous level of consciousness, a vast oneness, in which we are all profoundly linked. This oneness is not a metaphor but an actual state of higher awareness which can be experienced. Discover the joy of feeling truly connected to everyone while also connected to God.

Essential Life Skills, Oneness

Be Open to Oneness

When you’re afraid and need help, avoid thinking: I’m tiny, weak and lost. Instead, open your consciousness to the possibility of a vast, caring oneness. Feel it surrounding you, responding to you. Allow the oneness to help you with all your needs — fears, loneliness, or any shortcomings. Just think:  I’m opening myself to unity with humanity and to the one great soul that we all share. 

  • As you calm your body, mind and emotions, you begin to sense a oneness with the universe and all mankind
  • Oneness leads to a feeling of wholeness and, in time, sacredness
  • In meditation, we contact the buddhi, where we can witness the mind and emotions
  • The buddhi recedes into mahat, a sense of the great soul which we all share
  • Be open to the vast, caring oneness within you, surrounding you, responding to 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?
