RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Always Transcending — Part 2

Would you like to improve your concentration?

Yogis are always seeking to transcend, to go beyond their present level of awareness into higher realizations. One way to stimulate transcendence is to use the eye-level process. Learn the straight-ahead gaze and see how it can improve your ability to think and concentrate.

Keys to Higher Yogas

How to Improve Thinking and Concentration

Select an object about ten feet away and simply gaze at it. After gazing at the object for a few minutes, close your eyes and hold it in your mind, keeping your eyes at the same level. This practice makes you increasingly aware and objective throughout the day. You become more capable of noticing what is going on around you and participating more fully in daily life.

When you have mastered this gazing technique, you become much better at thinking, concentrating and being mentally clear.

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?
