Session Details
Sangha – A Gathering of Minds and Hearts
Join us for a Sangha, where the power of community comes alive! Sangha, a Sanskrit word meaning “association” or “community,” represents a gathering of individuals coming together with a shared purpose. Led by Yogi Ashokananda, this session invites participants to unite in a dynamic discussion on a topic that resonates with everyone in the group.
Through this collective experience, we will amplify our understanding and energy, creating a space where each voice matters. You are encouraged to actively engage, submit your questions, and share your thoughts as we explore new insights and deepen our connections. Together, let’s harness the magnetism of our shared wisdom and elevate each other through meaningful conversation.
Journey Within: Atma Kriya Meditation Mastery
Embark on a profound journey of self-discovery and inner transformation with Yogi Ashokananda, the master of Atma Kriya Meditation. Guided by his expertise, immerse yourself in a meditation practice designed to harmonize your inner and outer nature, drawing your energy and awareness inward to attain a state of ecstatic peace.
Atma Kriya Meditation serves as a conduit for channeling the life force (prana) through your body into higher consciousness, utilizing the power of breath, gentle concentration, and subtle awareness.
Through this practice, you offer your energy to your higher self, aligning with the essence of your being. Experience the profound benefits of Atma Kriya Meditation as it refines your concentration and memory, nurtures your nervous system, and alleviates conditions such as depression, anxiety, and stress, fostering greater self-awareness and self-love.
Unlike traditional meditation practices, Atma Kriya Meditation invites you to journey deeper into the depths of your being, anchoring yourself in the present moment and connecting with the essence of self (Atma). As you delve into the center of your being, you’ll find tranquility, clarity, and a renewed sense of energy and vitality.
Allow Atma Kriya Meditation to calm your mind, relax your nervous system, and infuse your life with positivity and healing vibrations. Experience a heightened sense of intelligence and perception, along with a deeper connection to yourself, others, and a greater source, aligning your inner and outer nature to cultivate inner freedom and fulfillment.
This next segment, the Meditation Discourse, offers a profound opportunity to gain clarity, expand your awareness, and deepen your practice. Guided by the wisdom of the Master, Yogi Ashokananda, we will unravel the essence of meditation and its role in connecting us to the eternal within.
Following the discourse, you will have the chance to engage directly with Yogi Ashokananda during a live Q&A. Bring your curiosity and questions—this is your time to seek guidance, resolve doubts, and connect with the heart of this ancient wisdom.
Let us step into this sacred dialogue with openness and humility as we deepen our journey together.
Vedic Chanting
Discover the transformative power of Vedic chanting, an ancient oral tradition rooted in the sacred texts of India. The closing of our session introduces participants to the rhythmic patterns, precise intonations, and profound meanings of Vedic mantras, fostering mindfulness and inner harmony. Guided by Yogi Ashokananda, you will chant with call / response and explore the significance of the verses, and experience the calming effect of this meditative practice. Suitable for all levels, this session invites you to connect with the timeless wisdom of the Vedas and cultivate a sense of peace and balance.
