"The
Yoga Poses are just a preparation for the practice of meditation, and
better than meditation is to renounce the fruits of your actions. Now

creatures." Dharma Mittra

Classes with Sri Dharma Mittra
Dharma Yoga Shiva Namaskar Vinyasa
A challenging and physically absorbing vinyasa series created by Sri
Dharma Mittra for Dharma Gentle, Dharma I, II, III, IV, and V. It reintegrates
the flow of prana through the spinal column and emanates deep into all
areas of the physical, metabolic, intuitive, and bliss bodies. It promotes
harmony within all these layers so a concentrated state of radiant health
is achieved. The highest crowning meditative asanas, pranayama (breathing
techniques), and yoga nidra (psychic sleep), which are embedded in the
deep roots of Dharma Mittra's teachings, are imparted to the student.

This class is for Intermediate and Advanced students and Teachers. The
practice is Dharma Level IV and V of Sri Dharma Mttra’s Shiva Namaskara
Vinyasa. Dharma Yoga Registered Teachers, apprentice teachers and students,
as well as teachers of all backgrounds from around the world commonly
take this class. Be ready for an amazingly graceful yet extremely challenging
practice steeped in 50 years of Dharma's experience of the classical
traditions. Dharmaji is the creator of over 300 advanced asana variations,
and offers lessons in many of these unique and now popular poses of
today. You will be guided through a purifying yoga nidra, and begin
cultivating the mind with invaluable and profound sacred teachings on
the ethical rules, yama and niyama, karma, yogic diet, ancient varied
breathing practices and sound techniques. Dharma helps guide each individual
to quiet the turbulent mind for peace, contentment, and realization
of the divinity within you. This two hour class with a master is a hidden
gem in the middle of New York City. For regular practioners and yoga

at his or her own pace, not push too much, and be at peace practicing

on practical and spiritual philosophical methodology, varied discourses
on karma and reincarnation, yogic diet, as well as, classical breathing
techniques.

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 asana practice which is an expanded version of the Maha Shakti All Levels class and is drawn from Dharma levels II-IV and tailored to what Sri DM finds before him on a given Saturday night. The asana practice is followed by 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

Self-Knowledge
The only way for the fluctuations of the mind to settle a little and for us to begin to taste the bliss of true peace is for the mind to gain a little of the highest knowledge -- the knowledge of the Self. Every person wants to be happy and serene, but it is always very difficult to find this in the physical restless world of today. Sri Dharma Mittra will arm you with the tools needed to bring an understanding of the true self, proper reasoning, and right action and therein the strength to end daily stuggles and suffering. Make this important class part of your week if you have not already, and see your entire life begin to transform into what you always dreamed it could be. Appropriate for anyone at any age, all that's required is a thirst for knowledge and that you join us every Monday night as the teachings are cumulative.
Psychic Development
Teaches a special series of mental exercises to improve your psychic
abilities and projection of your thoughts. They include specific breathing
exercises, directed visualizations, and the two powerful Mantras for
Purification and Unification. They will establish perfect psychic rhythm
to mental patterns which put power behind your thoughts, making it easier
to achieve your goals and desires in life. These ancient techniques
have only been passed down by word of mouth from teacher to disciple
and continue to be taught this way. The class culminates in a final
meditation to make your personal dreams a reality.
Self Realization Breathing and Meditation
Gaining spiritual knowledge allows one to realize their full potential.
This knowledge has the power to purify the body of toxins and calm the
mind, leading to a state of optimum health, general well-being and selfempowerment.
Sitting breathing and meditation techniques bring cumulative benefits.
Chairs are provided, no previous experience needed. Held every Monday.
Yoga Remedies for Overcoming Stress and Depression

injuries. Explore simple methods and practical techniques to keep balanced
and joyful in our busy lives. Sitting breathing and meditation techniques

Meditation
Dharma Yoga Meditation programs will reveal to you divine techniques
that will prepare your mind for serious practice, and greatly strengthen
the powers of concentration. Learn how to slow down your thoughts and
draw your attention away from the noisy restless world and place it
within, where the truth lies, and where the peace is. You will learn
to experience profound and permanent bliss, and direct the self to higher
states of consciousness. Instructions are partially telepathic in order
to transfer spiritual or psychic knowledge that words cannot convey.
Only an illumined instructor is capable of this. The meditation class
is beneficial in the following ways: • removes stress of daily
activities, calms the monkey mind, and promotes one-pointed concentration
• stimulates the pituitary and pineal glands for mental sharpness
and clairvoyance • balances all the bodily systems paving the way
towards truth, light, peace and divine perception. These sessions are
suitable for new students and all levels are welcome.

Purification
An invaluable cleansing and detox program that helps purify the mind,
the gross physical body, and the subtle astral body of toxic impurities.

laws of yoga, the yamas, and yoga nidra. The practice includes ancient
breathing, sound breathing, chakra techniques, mantra japa, chanting,
and meditation. This purification leads to higher states of physical
and mental health and reduced stress, culminating ultimately in blissful
Self-realization. This all-levels session:
• promotes clarity leading to freedom (Vairagya)
• removes negative states of mind and activates positive thinking
to help manifest your desires
• opens chakra centers and removes blocks to the flow of prana
• improves concentration
• purifies the five koshas (sheaths), bringing health and integration
of the body, mind and spirit.
Holy Satsang with Sri Dharma Mittra
Satsang is a traditional gathering in reverence to a wise teacher or
Guru, and in honor of the timeless knowledge and cosmic love that he
bestows upon the students. Included in this service is group kirtan,
or chanting, to help awaken the bhakti, or heartfelt devotion, group
offerings to the teacher, holy discourses, and scriptural readings to
bring spiritual salvation and understanding. The seeker can then begin
to clear his thoughts and lead a life toward self-perfection, divine
perception and self-realization which is the goal of Yogic teachings.
