To be Rescheduled - Sanyama – Collingswood, NJ


Patanjali's Yoga Sutras gives us the definitive description of Yoga.
It offers us a precise inner mapping of the essential truths for
strengthening awareness and being free from self-imposed
obstacles. It is a crystal clear model of living consciously in the
present, being sure of our path and our choices.

The Yoga Sutras consists of 195 Sutras, or short aphorisms, which
are divided into 4 books. They lay out a map that leads the student
of yoga into the most subtle states of consciousness. Sanyama is
the meditation practice described in the third chapter of the Yoga
Sutras. The Bhuta Jaya (Mastery of the Elements) Sanyama offers
a simple and clear way to experience the inward movement of
consciousness by utilizing these ancient techniques.

This introductory class offers the unique opportunity to experience
Sanyama directly, through the application of specific sutras that
outline this movement toward the subtle. We will review and
chant essential Sutras that outline the basics of the Sanyama
practice as well as the Bhuta Jaya Sanyama. Then we will apply
the sutras in a guided meditation practice.

This introduction to the Yoga Sutras and Sanyama Meditation is
designed to provide a preliminary experience of the practices
outlined by Patanjali. It is meant to be starting point for
understanding the deeper meaning and purpose of the Yoga Sutras.
This class is appropriate for both beginning and experienced
meditators. No meditation experience is necessary.
