Please register in advance, a Zoom link will be provided via email 1 hour prior to the session. You can also join zoom directly via your Momence dashboard. Please review our In-person Safety Guidelines.We live in a culture that emphasizes gritting our teeth and pushing ourselves to the limit as a normal approach to life; then waiting for time off to relax and enjoy ourselves. Join Ramananda as he explores how the teachings of Yoga offer the secrets to enjoying our lives now, having fun in the midst of our service, and connecting with a natural sense of contentment that is not dependent on events outside ourselves.
A simple vegetarian meal will be offered after this in-person Satsang with a suggested in-person donation of $5-10.
Satsang is a special time for us to come together as a community. In Sanskrit, Sat means truth and Sangha means community. Satsang offers an opportunity to come together to share spiritual teachings. The philosophy of Integral Yoga is explored often through an informal discussion. Although our spiritual paths may diverge, the act of sharing spiritual teachings with others is inspiring and creates a solid foundation for continued practice.
People of all faiths are welcome.
