LIVING YOGA WORKSHOP

MEDITATION
– WAYS TO QUIETEN THE MIND

Saturday 4 April 2009,
de Ruimte (beneden zaal), Amsterdam

The meditation workshop in November 2008 was such an enormous success that a follow up has been planned in 2009. We will again look into simple methods that lead to a creation of mental silence and physical immobility which can in turn lead to a meditative condition. The aim of the Meditation day is for each person to discover something that really works for their individual personality.

Some of the practices that were dealt with in the November workshop will be repeated and some new practices will be added (time allowing). For those who participated in November and had lasting benefit in the days after, this will certainly be a refreshing experience. For those who missed it, an opportunity to take part!

The workshop will be given by David Lonsdale.

Meditation is the legacy of all.

It is something that we all should and are able to experience spontaneously, yet we cannot because of the way we live.

We are continually in a state of tension because we don’t know our inner nature.

We are continually trying to do things because we feel that we ought to, even though it might be contrary to our nature.

There is a continual conflict between that which is and that which we want.

We are always motivated to become something instead of just being.

If we could only bring about a unity between what we are and what we want, then meditation would occur spontaneously”.

Meditations from the Tantras, Shri Satyananda Saraswati, founder of the Bihar School of Yoga, India
