In ancient times yoga schools had a rich meditation practice that has been lost in many modern traditions. Some yoga schools today turn to Buddhism for meditation if they teach it at all. This program will explore the many stages and techniques of yoga meditation. We will look at the different purposes that meditation can have, and how world-view influences meditation. We will examine the link between meditation and spirituality/religion.

We will practice meditation techniques from a variety of yoga traditions and consider what they have to offer modern students and what adaptations are necessary to maximize their benefit.

Take a journey through the mystical vision of the ancient Vedic Seers, the precision and discriminating insight of the Classical Yogis, the cosmic playground of the Tantric Masters and the body based energy vortex of the Tantric Hatha Yogis. Bring the wisdom of yoga meditation into your practice and take it to your students.

This program is both a training for teachers and a retreat for depth practitioners. Feel the effects of the practice in your body heart and mind and then take them to your students.
