“To learn Meditation, you don’t need to be anything else other then what you already are”
Some of the meditations that you will learn as a personal enhancement and be able to teach them. Different Techniques may also be added
- Vipassana Meditation: A mindfulness meditation used to enhance awareness and bring one to the “only moment.”
- Dhyan Nidra – Yog(a) Nidra : One of the relaxation techniques is a powerful method of guiding others to the very inner core of the being, settling there, relaxing, and settling into deep conscious healing sleep. Yoga nidra, variously meaning ‘yogic sleep’, ‘psychic sleep,’ or ‘sleeping consciously’, is a meditative procedure whose goal is to transform the mind and body. The name ‘yoga nidra’ derives from two Sanskrit words: ‘yoga,’ which means union, and ‘nidra,’ which means sleep. In other words, Yoga Nidra can take you to a state between sleep and samadhi.
This method also helps in subtly releasing the emotional blocks, traumas, and insomnia, and of course, it takes away much of the stress accumulated inside. - Kundalini Awakening Meditation: A method of gathering and uplifting your energies.
- Spandan Meditation: A shaking and vibration meditation to release the fears, traumas, emotional holdings, psychological patterns, and characteristic holdings to feel lighter, easier, and more flowing.
- Chakra Journey & Chakra Healing Meditation: Working on all the chakras to heal and allow the energy passage to be free.
- Tandra Mediation: A powerful meditation to take away the complexities, unburden the self, and release the emotions of anger, aggravation, irritation, frustrations, repressions, and unexpressed feelings and pains.
- Third Eye Meditation: Third Eye Activation Meditation to stimulate and awaken this center of power, attainment, and self-enhancement.
About the Teachings
Energy in the original stateless form is the driving force of this universe. In Indian Vedic concepts there are three forms (Tri Gunas-Qualities) of energies. The energy of creation (Brahma/Satva), the energy of sustaining (Vishnu/Rajas), and the energy of transformation (Shiva/Tamas). In this course you will get to understand these forms of energies and learn various kinds of powerful, life-transforming meditations that will not only take you towards yourself but also shift and uplift your conscious level from the current chained state that holds you down and does not allow your wings to spread far and wide.
The course is progressive. That means first you learn the basic steps and then progress to higher forms of the techniques. This allows you to climb the steps of conscious development and gather the illumination within yourself that is ready then to enlighten others. Basically, you learn not only to light your own candle but also to inflame other candles by your own flame.
When awareness is separate and distinct from mental activity,
when waking, dreams and deep sleep pass like clouds.
yet awareness of Self remains,
this is the experience of total relaxation…
That is why, in tantra, yoga nidra is said to be the doorway to Samadhi.”
– Swami Satyananda Saraswati –
“In yoga nidra we experience a state of harmony between body, brain, and mind. Then the unconscious barriers and blockages within the personality, which exist due to our negativity, are removed, and the healing power of the mind begins to manifest.”
– Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati-
