EXISTENCE is a FACT, LIVING is an ART!!!

 Present Moment : "The moment you let go of the past, your mind comes to the present on its own. In the present moment, spirit is kindled; even a little spark is made into a glow. When you cling to the past, the spark is covered with ashes. Be in the present and blow away the ashes of the past." Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

UPCOMING ART OF LIVING COURSE IN AUSTIN

 

EXISTENCE is a FACT, LIVING is an ART!!!

 

"A Journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step!!!"

This Meetup introduces a powerful combination of yoga practice, special meditations, breathing techniques, group processes, and deep spiritual knowledge.

There is a great secret in the breath. You have an inbuilt ability to calm the mind, heal the body, and energize the whole system in minutes. 80-90% of the toxins from the body are eliminated through the breath yet the average individual uses only 35% of their lung capacity.

Come enjoy practices that reduce the effects of stress and help live the present moment with dynamism, peace, and joy.

*Enhance your physical, mental and emotional well-being.
*Explore the depth of your being
*Experience peace of mind, joy and happiness.
*Increase your self confidence, creativity and focus.

"Spiritual blossoming" means expanding in all dimensions - being happy, at ease with yourself and everybody around you. - Sri Sri

 

Heightened awareness brings you close to the reality. And for this, you have to increase your prana. This can be done through: 1. Fasting and eating fresh food 2. Pranayamas, Sudarshan Kriya, and meditation 3. Silence 4. Cold water baths 5. The right amount of sleep 6. Emotional contentment 7. Presence of the Master 8. Singing and chanting 9. Giving without Givership and service without Doership

All of these together is Yagya. When you have reverence for the whole universe, you are in harmony with the whole universe. Then, you do not need to reject or renounce anything. When you have reverence in all your relationships, your own consciousness expands; Even small things appear to be significant and big. Every little creature appears dignified. It is the reverence in every relationship that saves the relationship. Cultivate the skill of having reverence for every moment in your life.
