Experiments in Self-Realization
Keys to a More Fulfilling Life
Not scheduled at this time.
Take a spiritual vacation that can dramatically change your life for the better!
During this 5-day retreat in higher consciousness, we'll dive deeply into the philosophy of how to live in happiness, as well as use some of the countless yogic tools to practice lifting our consciousness.
You will receive in-depth training in a practical and profound meditation technique that can work for you. We'll have guided meditations throughout the week to strengthen your practice.
You'll discover the powerful 8-limbs of yoga, as described by Patanjali—a non-denominational guide to self-realization for any seeker. Throughout the week, you will explore specific parts of his guidelines.
Other topics and experiments include:
• What is intuition, and how can you get intuitive guidance in your life?
• Working with pranayama exercises to raise the energy, and affirmations to raise the consciousness.
• Explore and experience the chakras, through discussion, chanting, and visualization.
• A morning of silence at Ananda's sacred Meditation Retreat, and an afternoon pilgrimage to Crystal Hermitage.
You will also enjoy the opportunity for 2 guided sessions of yoga postures and meditation daily, devotional chanting, healing prayers, and much more.
Everyone can benefit from this week—newcomers and seasoned devotees—because your spiritual experiments will help you discover truth and joy on deeper and deeper levels within yourself.
Included in the cost of this course is a copy for you of The Essence of Self-Realization: The Wisdom of Paramhansa Yogananda, recorded and compiled by his disciple, Kriyananda.
From Anandi:
One of my favorite parts of teaching at The Expanding Light is seeing how inspired, empowered, and, in a way, liberated, people feel when they discover the soul-thrilling keys to Eastern wisdom. Join us! We'll have a lot of fun.
