RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Yoga's Way of Faith

Find out how you can live in Chaitanya, an interplay with the Divine

The great yogi Sri Ramakrishna affirmed that “Faith is the cornerstone of all.” When we live in faith, it often blossoms into a level of spiritual awareness wherein we perceive Spirit moving, responding and expressing within us and all people everywhere. Faith opens us to spiritual experiences.

Yoga in Daily Life, Faith

Chaitanya

A yoga devotee practices faith and an openness to the state of Chaitanya, an interplay with the Divine. The devotee enters Chaitanya and experiences a new level of knowing. In this awareness of oneness, it’s easier to pray, to petition, to ask for things, because you’re more deeply connected with the person you’re praying for. You’re connected with the Divine as It moves and expresses in all lives.

Show More
  • In advanced faith, we have a certainty that God hears us, responds and cares all the time
  • A yogi’s faith matures into a state of undivided consciousness called Chaitanya, awareness of Spirit everywhere
  • In Chaitanya, yogis sense the oneness of Spirit moving and expressing in the lives and circumstances of all people
  • Learn how to develop Chaitanya and be aware of the oneness and omnipresence of Spirit
  • The great metaphysician Ernest Holmes said, “The secret of spiritual power lies in a consciousness of one’s union with the whole and the availability of good.”
  • Yogis call faith shraddha, living in a vast ocean of God’s goodness which is ready to express everywhere

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.
