Can this integration bring added value to our lives? In this fun theoretical workshop, students will explore the link between the physical, mental and spiritual benefits of the dynamic movements practiced in the morning with Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and the way we ride/navigate through life. Morning Classes: 0730Hrs - 0930Hrs • Saturday: Flow through the primary series to the rhythm of the traditional Sanskrit count. No interruptions, just a smooth flowing practice, ending in a long and deep relaxation. • Sunday: We will practice the full second Series but in a very accessible and playful way.

DOUTORADO EM CIÊNCIAS DA RELIGIÃO Tese apresentada à Banca Examinadora como exigência parcial para obtenção do título de DOUTOR em Ciências da Religião, pela Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo, sob a orientação do Professor Doutor José Joaquim Queiroz. SÃO PAULO 2009 2 Wullstein, Irani Alves Cordeiro: “Yoga, Meditação e Silêncio na tradição de grandes mestres e na visão científica de Bohdan Wijtenko”. RESUMO A tese focaliza o Yoga a partir da sua vinda da Índia para o Ocidente, com ênfase na visão tradicional incorporada por grandes mestres. Analisa a recepção do Yoga na sociedade pós-moderna, mediante matérias de jornais e revistas de grande circulação no Brasil. Com estes capítulos introdutórios, prepara o cenário para o foco principal do trabalho, que é recuperar uma notável figura de Yogue e Mestre, Bohdan Wijtenko. Durante vários anos, Mestre Bohdan ensinou em cátedras no exterior e no Brasil e formou um grande número de discípulos em nossa sociedade. Embora não tenha deixado livros nem artigos em jornais e revistas científicas, ficaram inéditos inúmeros manuscritos e conferências gravadas, que a tese busca recuperar, pelo menos em parte, para apresentar o seu trabalho de grande especialista em Hinduismo e Yoga e sua constante preocupação em ensinar a meditação e o silêncio como a essência dessa prática milenar.
