Polarity — Attractions & Spiritual Dynamics

How to have greater intimacy with God

Explore ways to foster the powerful energy of attraction. Polarity enables wonderful dynamics on the spiritual path. Discover how polarity stimulates growth and transformation.

Spiritual Development

Polarity Can Propel You

As we shed tension, turbulence and other distractions through yoga practice, we can begin to attune with the person-to-God attraction and energy. This polarity propels you and makes your path sweet and powerful. Sri Ramakrishna encouraged those who had dominantly emotional natures to cultivate bhakti (devotion), that which leads to a dynamic relationship with the Lord. As a result of bhakti you become able to assimilate more spiritual awareness. Your evolving nervous system allows you to absorb Spirit and be transformed. Like a caterpillar becomes a butterfly, you change in a way that expresses your spiritual energy and your spiritual goodness.

  • Polarity:  the property possessed by bodies having opposite magnetic poles, as of magnetic attraction or repulsion
  • Yogis focus on the attraction which propels us to intimacy, harmony and oneness with God
  • If you find this attraction, it will move you forward and make the path sweet and dynamic
  • Often our distractions are so powerful they block the drive for God
  • As we shed tension and turbulence, we often become aware of a natural, strong attraction to God
  • As Sri Ramakrishna taught:  The whole thing is to love God and taste His sweetness.

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.
