RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

The Higher Life — Part 4

How to live in wholeness rather than emptiness

Yoga enables you to find the energy and freedom of the higher prakriti and live in a state of spiritual awareness, bliss and ever-new joy. Explore yoga practices which can show you the way.

Spiritual Development

Move to the Higher Prakriti

We are focusing on moving from the lower prakriti to this wonderful higher state of freedom, spiritual awareness, bliss, ecstasy and ever-new joy. It is a state of wholeness rather than separation or emptiness. It reveals your connection with your own soul and that of all people.

  • Yoga is a state of harmony to be experienced and lived in
  • In yoga terms, the herd mind wants you to stay in the lower prakriti of senses, mind, ego and agency
  • To experience the higher life, we need to go beyond the herd mind
  • We can move to the higher prakriti through focus and meditation in the chakras (energy centers)
  • Go beyond the mind, the ego, and habitual judgment to enter the source of life itself

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?
