Swami Janakananda will teach the first steps of two meditations: "The Source of Energy" (from Kriya Yoga) and "Inner Silence," as well as guide the deep relaxation or Yoga Nidra. He will also give lectures.

Swamiji will be assisted by Ma Sita Savitri, who will teach Yoga Asana and Pranayama and will lead Kirtan and chanting for the retreat.

Participation in all weekend sessions is required due to the sequential nature of the teaching.

10 May
Satsang/Meditation

at Serenity Yoga, NY
Wednesday May10, 8.30PM – 10.30PM

Tantra is more than sexual rituals

"Releasing a tension or an involved state is like walking up a steep hill, sometimes you don't want to, and you think of any other place that you would rather be - but once you get over the top, and start going down-hill, you think: was that all? Giving up an involved state is like dying - and being born anew, freer than before."
Swami Janakananda, from Bindu magazine #14

SATSANG: Ask questions, or just listen to Swami Janakananda’s inspiring talk about the practice and effect of yoga and meditation.

MEDITATION: The evening ends with a guided meditation.

Swami Janakananda is a pranayama- and meditation master from Denmark. He founded the Scandinavian Yoga and Meditation School in 1970. Since then he has been training yoga and meditation teachers, teaching from the tantric tradition; classical yoga, the meditations Kriya Yoga and Antar Mauna (Inner Silence) and the Yoga Nidra deep relaxation, methods he was initiated into by his teacher Swami Satyananda.

His clear way of showing how even advanced yoga can be used as a tool for people in society today, inspires many. What makes his teaching so special is that he uses the situation here and now and the way you are, without demanding that something should be changed first.

Swami Janakananda is the author of the book Yoga, Tantra and Meditation in Daily Life. He guides the deep-relaxations on the CD Experience Yoga Nidra. See research results in the periodical Bindu, from his cooperation with European researchers on the effects of yoga and meditation, at www.scand-yoga.org.

He travels outside Europe with workshops and retreats and every year people come from all over the world to participate in his one and three months Kriya Yoga retreats at the Ashram of Haa International Course Center in southern Sweden.

7 May
The Balance Between Being and Becoming

An evening with Swami Janakananda at Yoga Sutra Center, NYC
Sunday, May 7, 6:30 - 8:30 PM, $20 in advance / $25 at the door

Behind much of yogic philosophy, behind much occult talk, behind much doomsday worship and sectarianism, there is often a desperate desire to be somewhere else, to get away as soon as possible to something other than the present. People talk of the “spiritual” and “the other side”, but where are you in all this, where do you find peace?
Swami Janakananda, from his book “Yoga, Tantra and Meditation in Daily Life”

This evening workshop includes:

SATSANG: Ask questions, or just listen to Swami Janakananda’s inspiring talk about the practice and effect of yoga and meditation.

YOGA NIDRA: A guided deep relaxation, 20 minutes

MEDITATION: A guided meditation, 15 - 20 minutes

Lecture and Guided Meditation

For the Yoga and Meditation Society for the Scientific Study of Spirituality at the State University of New York College at Oneonta, Lee Hall (Multicultural Center). Free. Wednesday May 3, 4-6:30 PM.

"Yoga is more than fitness training. - Stress management, relaxation and sensitivity, enhanced concentration and creativity are some of the deeper psychic effects of the original yoga.”

The use of asana, pranayama, mudra and bandha in the classical yoga. The inner workings of yoga and how to practice it to get deeper effect. What makes this original yoga so unique? How do we remove that which is standing in the way of our wellbeing and of that which we want with our lives? The deeper-lying causes are not up-rooted by staying on that same surface where we experience our problems. How do we bring about the state of Being? How can only a few minutes of that experience every day make a big difference in our lives?
