SUMMARY:Thursday Satsang: “Shoucha: Pathway to Buddhi” with Pandit Tejomaya - June 20\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Thursday Satsang – June 20\, 2019\n“Shoucha: Pathway to Buddhi”\nThe practices of shoucha\, purity\, are vast and powerful!  Even the simple\, gross practices have profound effects which inspire more and more practices: purity leads to more purity.  But when\, over time\, this inspiration leads to the subtle realms\, one begins to experience the wordless intimacy of Buddhi – the greatest source of purity available to us in our human form.  The relationship is elusive at first\, until we attune our inner hearing to Buddhi’s silent voice. \nSri Swami Rama once said that the highest expression of purity occurs when all of our actions – physical\, speech\, and thought – arise under the sole influence of the Divine.  Buddhi is the perfectly skilled\, essential companion for such a Divine journey. \nPandit Tejomaya will share insights from his forest sadhana. \n  \n\n\n\n6:00 p.m. Hatha Yoga\n7:00 p.m. Meditation with Swami Radha Bharati\n7:30 p.m. Talk by Pandit Tejomaya\n8:30 p.m. No Soup Because of TMC Kitchen Remodel\n9:00 p.m. Prayers and Meditation\n\n\n\nAll are welcome! Come for the entire evening\, or join at any time. There is no need to make reservations. Simply show up and enjoy yourself!\nWeekly Format:\n6:00 – 7:00: Hatha Yoga for Everyone!
