We welcome the full moon Turu and this time of celebrating the light and wisdom of that which reflects the greater Light of Consciousness within and through our tradition of Yoga.
Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati says, Guru is the realization of an inner state of purity, harmony and oneness with the inner spirit. The outer form is the catalyst and guide who may lead us to that source of inspiration and strength. That is how we can understand the concept of guru. The energy of guru is eternal and permanent; it never dies, never decays and never changes.
Let us enjoy chanting of a mantra to connect us with and honour that deeper Light of Wisdom.
May we extend this resonance to all beings to help grow our collective wisdom and compassion.
Time: 7.00 - 8.00am
Venue: Yoga Living Space, Southshore
Please bring: An image, object or even a thought representing your teachers, to join us for our practice (and take with you when you leave).

*Koha or Dana (This is the act of giving generously and freely, without expecting anything in return. The value of the koha is determined by the giver, based on their capacity and the situation. It is an opportunity to acknowledge the source of the practices and the giving of them. It is a voluntary donation or contribution that is more than a simple gift. It signifies a gesture of respect, connection and appreciation. It is also the opportunity to give back to our community)
"It was found that during repetitive singing of kirtan,
the brain registers the sound waves, nada,
which influence all other wave patterns of the brain.
These waves awaken alpha rhythms which immediately induce tranquility.
Thus by singing kirtan, we experience peace of mind."
Swami Satyananda Saraswati
