Discover Your Inner Treasures
Each of us contains inside our being a huge potential, in a dormant state, inviting us to discover it. The main goal in meditation and any other authentic spiritual practice is to gradually cease the mental agitation and discover that which lies beyond it – the Ultimate Truth, the Absolute Consciousness, the Uncreated Light, God, the Supreme Self.
It is like removing the clouds that cover the sun – so under its brilliant influence, all our inner treasures also start to sprout and blossom.
What we find by practicing meditation can be hard to imagine from the beginning. We start for a certain reason, such as searching answers to some questions, wanting to improve something in our life, curiosity etc. With practice, we obtain these and even much more.
Meditation – The Most Advanced Stage in Yoga
Contrary to popular belief – which considers meditation something anybody can do, that just consists of sitting down and closing our eyes for a few minutes and following the guidance in some headphones – practicing meditation for real is considered the highest form of practice and most advanced stage in ancient authentic spiritual lineages.
Being the most advanced form of practice, it needs to be approached in a systematic and step-by-step manner, and it needs solid preparation.
In the Yoga Sutras Patanjali outlined 2000 years ago the royal 8-step pathway to meditation. He revealed that in order to truly meditate, we must first prepare ourselves – by improving & harmonizing our character, purifying & strengthening our body, gaining control over our energies, and finally purifying & disciplining our mind.
For this, improving our inner attitudes, hatha yoga postures, pranayama techniques and concentration exercises are necessary steps on the path leading to the practice of actual meditation.
Learn the Specific ‘Mechanisms’ of Meditation
In this course we explore how meditation actually works. Meditation appears to most people as a subjective experience, yet in reality it follows very precise, objective ‘laws’.
Rather than aiming to practice a specific form of meditation, our focus is on exploring the very nature of consciousness and the road map of meditation, so that the skills we obtain can be applied in any form of meditation.
Some of the skills we learn include:
- how to focus the attention at will in any moment
- focusing and remain in a state of inner silence and serenity continuously for longer periods of time
- surpassing the tricks of the mind, such as distractions and sleepiness
- accessing higher levels of consciousness such as intuition and even to attain the state of samadhi
Practice Makes the Master
Our results in the meditation practice will be proportional to our daily practice at home.
Once a week we come together in the class to be guided, learn new steps and address occurring issues in our practice, and practice together.
At the end of each class a new ‘homework’ will be given to apply the new teachings and help us transform in a systematic manner.
The daily individual practice typically consists of:
- Specific hatha yoga exercises (asanas and pranayama)
- Concentration and meditation exercises
- Observing certain attitudes during the day, such as moral virtues and impulses of awareness
Class Structure
Meditation classes are 2 hours – including 80 minutes of practice & 40 minutes of theory.
There are 46-48 classes in a year – 1 per week. Classes start in September, pause in August, and resume again in September each year.
New students must start in Year 1. Skipping years is not allowed, because the later years build upon the foundations set in earlier years.
