Life and Death in One Breath Sadhguru Religion & Philosophy 37 Life and Death in One Breath Sadhguru Death is a cosmic joke. In this book, Sadhguru reveals that life and death are, in fact, two sides of the same coin. It is only by embracing both that we can break the shackles of our self-made struggles and be set free.

Later, he became the Founder and Director of the Blue Mountain Center of Meditation and the Nilgiri Press, and taught the classics of world mysticism and the practice of meditation from 1960 until his death in 1999. Essence of the Dhammapada How do we follow the spiritual life in the midst of work and family? Does nirvana really exist, and if so, what is it like to be illumined? Said to be the text closest to Buddha’s actual words, The Dhammapada is a collection of short teachings memorized during his lifetime by his disciples. Eknath Easwaran, translator of the best-selling edition of The Dhammapada, sees this powerful scripture as a perfect map for the spiritual journey. Easwaran’s text is a guide to spiritual perseverance, progress and ultimately enlightenment – a heroic confrontation with life as it really is, with straight answers to our deepest questions. Easwaran offers a view of the concept of Right Understanding that is both exhilarating and instructive.

Love, hope, compassion, meaning and freedom from fear are not qualities we need to acquire, Easwaran points out. We simply need to uncover what we already have. With inspiring quotes from some of the greatest mystics, this book will appeal to those who wish to meditate.

  • January-December - 2012
    JANUARY-DECEMBER - 2012 January 2012 AVOID CONFUSION This world appearance is a confusion as the blue sky is an optical illusion. It is better not to let the mind dwell on it. Neither freedom from sorrow nor realization of one’s real nature is possible as long as the conviction does not arise in us that the world-appearance is unreal. The objective world is a confusion of the real with the unreal. – Yoga Vasishta THE MIND: It is complex. It is logical and illogical, rational and irrational, good and bad, loving and hating, giving and grabbing, full of hope and help, while also filled with hopelessness and helplessness. Mind is a paradox, unpredictable with its own ways of functioning. It is volatile and restless; yet, it constantly seeks peace, stillness and stability. To be with the mind means to live our lives like a roller- coaster ride. The stability and stillness that we seek, the rest and relaxation that we crave for, the peace and calmness that we desperately need, are not to be found in the arena of mind. That is available only when we link to our Higher Self, which is very much with us. But we have to work for it. – P.V. Vaidyanathan LOOK AT THE BRIGHT SIDE: Not everyone will see the greatness we see in ourselves. Our reactions to situations that don’t fit our illusions cause us to suffer. Much of the negative self-talk is based upon reactions to a reality that does not conform to our illusory expectations. We have much to celebrate about, which we forget.

  • The Psychology of Yoga: Integrating Eastern and Western Approaches for Understanding the Mind
    The Psychology of Yoga: Integrating Eastern and Western Approaches for Understanding the Mind . Written by Georg Feuerstein, PhD Reviewed by Dawn Bhat, MA, MS, NCC, RYT-500, LMHC A Personal Note What fascinated me, having studied with Georg, was how seeped he was in the yoga tradition and that he intended to explore Eugene Gendlin’s Focusing; yet, my impression is that he was unaware of the fields of somatic psychology and body psychotherapy, though he does include a brief comment on Reichian physiology, which I note later in my review. Knowing Georg and being academically immersed in somatic psychology, I respect how difficult it is to comprehend Eastern thought and dogmatic modern psychological science. Personally, I was as engaged reading this book (583 pages, released posthumous, 2014), as I was with most of his writings. My intellect was nourished by Georg’s study on yoga psychology. My heart filled with gratitude for this absolutely wonderful work. My inner awareness came to a place of stillness as I realized, felt, and witnessed the connection and space deep within. Georg Feuerstein, authored numerous PhD wrote what might books and can be be the most credited with bringing comprehensive work on yoga into academia, the subject of the education, research and psychology of yoga therapy. In this volume, today: The Psychology Feuerstein focuses on of Yoga: Integrating understanding the mind Eastern and Western by integrating ancient Approaches for yoga tradition, Understanding the Hinduism, Buddhism, Mind . One of the Jainism, and modern world’s finest scholars psychology in his of yoga, Indian and formation and Eastern spiritual conceptualization of traditions, Feuerstein yoga psychology.

  • Ethical Guidelines for Yoga Teachers by Georg Feuerstein, Ph.D. As An
    Name:___________________________ Ethical Guidelines for Yoga Teachers by Georg Feuerstein, Ph.D. As an integrated way of life, Yoga includes moral standards (traditionally called “virtues”) that any reasonable human being would find in principle acceptable. Some of these standards, known in Sanskrit as yamas, or “disciplines,” are encoded in the first limb of Patanjali’s eightfold path. According to Patanjali’s Yoga-Sûtra, this practice category is composed of the following five virtues: nonharming (ahimsâ ), truthfulness (satya), nonstealing (asteya), chastity (brahmacarya), and greedlessness (aparigraha). In other key scriptures of Yoga, further moral principles are mentioned, including kindness, compassion, generosity, patience, helpfulness, forgiveness, purity, and so on. All these are virtues that we connect with a “good” character and that are demonstrated to a superlative degree in the lives of the great masters of Yoga. Thus, it seems appropriate for contemporary Yoga teachers to endeavor to conduct their lives in consonance with Yoga’s moral principles, particularly because teachers have a great responsibility toward their students and should be expected to reflect the high moral standards espoused in Yoga. At the same time, we must acknowledge the complexities of our contemporary society, which make it necessary to appropriately adapt the moral standards originally designed for the conditions of pre-modern India. Also, we need to take into proper account the looming environmental crisis by adopting a sustainable lifestyle. The following guidelines are put forward as a reasonable adaptation for our modern situation, which also takes proper cognizance of the wisdom contained in the heritage of Yoga. 1. Yoga teachers understand and appreciate that teaching Yoga is a noble and ennobling endeavor that aligns them with a long line of honorable teachers.

Sherma | Office: ACB 233 Rel. Office Tel: 213-740-0272 COURSE DESCRIPTION Yoga is now practiced globally and has extensive branches in the West. The interpretations and adaptations of yoga in the West are almost exclusively associated with fitness and wellness in the popular imagination. Yet, the history of yoga includes but surpasses wellness.

This course will study the living traditions of Hindu yoga, including the paths of knowledge, wisdom, love, and selfless service, and explore the yogic journey through its narrative literature, philosophy, art, music, and contemporary research on yogic states of consciousness.
