RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Provide an Excellent Channel

Are you attracting what you want? Or attracting what you don’t want?

Ernest Holmes, in Creative Mind and Success, explains how Spirit manifests in the physical world. Discover how to be a channel for spiritual manifestation.

Yoga in Daily Life, Metaphysics, Receptivity

All the Power of the Universe is with You

Ernest Holmes:  The metaphysician should keep his mind on thoughts of happiness, which produce happiness instead of depression. She or he should radiate joy, beautiful joy, and be filled with faith, hope and expectancy. These cheerful, hopeful attitudes are indispensable to the one who really wants to do things in life. All the power in the universe is with you. Feel it, know it, then act as though it is true. This attitude will draw success. 

  • Ernest Holmes:  God is the silent power behind all things, always ready to spring into expression when a proper channel is provided
  • We have to consciously embody what we wish and we shall draw it toward us
  • Spirit makes things out of Itself. It manifests in the visible world by becoming the thing It wills to become
  • At all times we are either drawing things to us or we’re pushing them away from us

We are spiritual beings
“Higher consciousness (also called spiritual awareness) is the main component missing in the lives of people. We humans are spiritual beings, enlivened by Spirit. We’d have a much better world if more people discovered the already present Spirit within them.”

— Ramakrishna Ananda

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?
