Raja Yoga - Monthly Discussion and Meditation Group
Event description
The group is exploring a powerful book called Raja Yoga by Wallace Slater.
Slater feels if practiced with earnestness and sincerity, this course will enable the reader to absorb the spirit and practice of Raja Yoga and bring about almost imperceptibly immense benefits.
The monthly format provides a practical and theoretical examination of Patanjali's eight steps of yoga which include: moral and ethical behaviour, body discipline for greater health, easy breathing techniques and control of the senses, all of which are preparatory for meditation practice.
We read one chapter each session, discuss its content and finish with a practical meditation session. Studying within a supportive group is beneficial, enjoyable and encourages putting into practice spiritual teachings rather than the teachings remaining academic.
The book 'Raja Yoga' by Wallace Slater is freely available online and copies can also be purchased for $6 when you attend the class.
FREE ADMISSION: There is no cost to attend this event, but a donation of $5 or more is greatly appreciated to assist us to cover our costs.
