We often think of self-realization as the goal of Yoga, but what does that truly mean to us? It can remain a vague and distant concept, seemingly disconnected from our daily lives. Join Ramananda for a discussion on how we can free ourselves from the illusion of separation and how our everyday thoughts and actions can become meaningful steps toward realizing our true nature.

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.
