Sahaja Yoga meditaatiokurssi suomeksi
Sahaja Yoga meditaatiokurssi suomeksi
Tervetuloa mukaan Sahaja Jooga -meditaatiotilaisuuksiin suomeksi! Tilaisuudet ovat maksuttomia, ja voit tulla paikalle ilman ennakkoilmoittautumista. Istumme yleensä tuoleilla tai lattialla tyynyillä, joten mattoa ei tarvitse ottaa mukaan, ja voit pukeutua tavallisiin vaatteisiin. Meditaatio tarkoittaa mielen hiljaisuutta tai ajatuksetonta tietoisuutta. Olet läsnä tässä hetkessä, mutta mielesi ei ole täynnä menneisyyden tai tulevaisuuden ajatuksia. Tässä tilassa tunnet rauhaa ja iloa, jotka ovat nykyhetken olennaisia elementtejä. Säännöllisellä meditaatioharjoituksella tämän tilan voi saada vakiintumaan meissä. Ryhmää johtavat vapaaehtoiset, joilla on kokemusta ja jotka voivat ohjata sinut alkuun. Annamme lyhyen johdatuksen meditaatioon, minkä jälkeen teemme meditaatioharjoituksia. Annamme myös vinkkejä meditaation harjoittamiseen kotona. Tervetuloa! Tämä video auttaa sinua löytämään Kamppi Sahaja Jooga -keskuksen: https://vimeo.com/199566137 Lisätietoa Sahaja Jooga -meditaatiosta: www.discoversahajayoga.org (englanniksi) www.jooga.org (suomeksi) www.sahajayoga.ru (venäjäksi) www.sahajayoga.es (espanjaksi) Ohjattuja verkkomeditaatioita, jotka tukevat meditaatioharjoitustasi kotona: www.wemeditate.com
