Maha Sadhana
The Great Divine Whole and Complete Eternal Practices of Sri Dharma, recommended for intermediate through advanced practitioners. This amazing session begins with spiritual Purification discourses from the Master conveying the ancient teaching into our modern lives. ”Each Posture is designed to bring a special state of conscious,” says Dharma, a backbend and inversion expert and creator of many of the popular postures you will learn, which will mystify you in this physically and mentally challenging invaluable practice. You will be shown how to establish proper placement, alignment and the spiritual intention of each pose. He will ignite one-pointedness of mind and steady determination that will have you doing poses you never thought you could. It continues with in-depth, long and challenging Dharma Yoga III-IV Shiva Namaskara Vinyasa practice, including healing deep relaxation and a reflective meditation practice. Included is a joyous Devotional Dharma Asana Satsang Jam. Personal attention and helpful hints are given throughout the session as well as direction toward the real true goal of Yoga. Pre-registration is required for this once a month special workshop. Held the second Saturday monthly 5:30-8:30pm.
