Sun Nov 4, 2018: Kirtan, Vedanta Talk and Meditation at Atmananda Yoga

Event Title:  Discovering The Truth and Love Within: A Gathering for Kirtan, Vedanta Talk and Meditation
Speaker: Yuriy
Time: 12:15pm - 1:15pm, Sunday November 4th, 2018.
Location: Atmananda Yoga NYC, 112 E 23rd St #200, New York, NY 10010

In this one-hour gathering, we will discuss the timeless wisdom of the Vedanta tradition. It is a culmination of all spiritual currents from ancient India that matured to one aim - the realization of the Self. We are all striving for this one aim, knowingly or unknowingly - to know who we are. We look for happiness, seek unconditional love, and try to secure some sense of permanence in life. Yet unbeknownst to most, the very source of these treasures is at the core of our own being, and not somewhere outside. The more of it we discover within, the more of it we reflect out. And our whole life becomes transformed, no matter the circumstance.

At this meeting at Atmananda Yoga Studio, we will introduce the teachings of Vedanta, sing sacred mantras together (kirtan), and give a summary of the four yogas (Jnana, Bhakti, Karma and Raja) that are traditionally practiced to make progress towards this Self-Realization. In the future, we plan to dedicate separate classes to each of the yoga paths to learn how to apply them practically to day-to-day life.
