RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Let Ye Therefore Be Perfect

Would you like Spirit to guide your life?

Be ye therefore perfect even as your Father, which is in heaven, is perfect. What did Jesus mean when he said this? The yogic view is that Spirit lives inside each of us but is often blocked. Discover how to allow the perfection of Spirit to bless, fill and express through you.

Spiritual Development

There Is a Progressive Development

There is a progressive development toward realization of Spirit. We go beyond an ego focus to center in our true self, the soul. Be ye, therefore perfect from a yogic viewpoint occurs when you find and live in your soul. In awakening to Spirit, everything changes. You become a new being living with a powerful new motive. Spirit within you loves and serves God and His creation.

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?
