Courses and Programs - Basic


At one time or another, all of us
face the questions: Who am I?
What is my purpose in life?

The Foundation Course in Raja Yoga, Positive Thinking, and Stress-Free Living help answer these questions. Through these courses and workshops, individuals deepen their self-understanding, explore and experiment with a mature and whole relationship with God, and develop a strong spiritual context within which to live a practical and fulfilling life.

“Being a teacher of Raja Yoga Meditation and a practicing engineer can be interpreted as an improbable pair. However, spiritual principles transcend everything including professions. At work, there is potential for a lot of anxiety, but I can choose not to work with worry and refuse to take on the stress of others. My focus and concentration are improved as a result of my spiritual practice, and I have come to respect the importance of good relationships.”

THE FOUNDATION COURSE
Often referred to as Raja Yoga Meditation, this course describes the anatomy of the soul, explores the connection and relationship with God, explains the spiritual laws of action and reaction, and expands the understanding of time itself.

The practice of meditation is grounded in a core knowledge that connects the inner world of thoughts, feelings, and ideas to the outer world of actions and relationships. The result of this practice builds mental and emotional capacity.

POSITIVE THINKING
The energy of the human mind is thought, the greatest but least understood energy. During this workshop, individuals journey into the mind to identify thought patterns and their consequences over time. Models and methods are discussed which provide direction on how the mind can work in a more productive and beneficial way.

STRESS-FREE LIVING
It is not easy to see and hear what our stress is telling us. Stress is simply a messenger guiding us back to a state of balance and health. This workshop offers insights, practical solutions, and personal strategies, using meditation, visualization, positive thinking, and detached observation as the four key skills to managing and preventing stress.
