Saturdays 10:30-12:30

May 11th – June 29th


This 8-week course shares, in a practical way, the Fundamentals of Raja Yoga: the comprehensive yogic path that shows us how to spiritualize our entire life, with meditation as its central practice. The yoga teachings explain that this world is a school, where we are sent to develop our “spiritual muscles” by learning the many lessons life teaches us. When all lessons have been learned, and our consciousness spiritualized; we are able to graduate the School of Life and earn the true “Certificate of Completion”: Self-Realization.

*Living the Principles of Self-Realization is the second course on the Path of Kriya Yoga. All are welcome to join. For more information on the first step on The Path of Kriya visit: Learn To Meditate.
