DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Himalayan Yoga and Meditation Milwaukee; Himalayan Yoga and Meditation Center Palatine;\nand The Meditation Center Minneapolis\n“Natural Happiness: Living The Tantric Samaya Tradition” with Dr. Phil Nuernberger\nWhen the mind is completely free of thoughts of pleasure and appetites\, the mind dissolves itself in bliss.\n~His Holiness Sri Swami Rama~\n4 Seminars via Zoom – 2-2.5 hours each\nWednesdays: May 21\, June 18\, July 16\, and August 20\, 2025\n7:00-9:00 p.m. CT\nAll Four Sessions: $108.00\nA Single Session: $30.00\nRegister here for July 16th\nf \nEveryone is welcome to join this seminar. No one need be left out for financial reasons. If you have any questions regarding registration please contact The Meditation Center at phyllis.vargas@themeditationcenter.org. \nUltimately\, we all strive to be happy in one way or another. For the tantric sadakha\, the world\, a manifestation of the Divine Mother\, serves as the means to enlightenment. The Samayan tantric does not make the world disappear\, he or she makes it transparent to reveal the Infinite One\, which is our own true Self. Life is not meant for “no’s”\, but it must be free of materialism\, the attachment to energetic forms\, particularly those of the mind. This is a necessary step in our Samaya tradition. In these next four sessions\, we explore the principles and practices necessary to be free\, to actually live the beautiful song of life that Guru Dev Swami Rama demonstrated with his example and teachings. \nSession 1: Natural Happiness – May 21 \nA spiritual journey is best understood as the uncovering of natural happiness\, or what in our tradition is called ananda. In this session we explore the nature of genuine and natural happiness\, and how to experience this as our true identity. \nSession 2: Mind: Master or Tool? – June 18 \nIn this session we explore the veil between you and the Reality of Sat – Chit- Ananda. Our thoughts and beliefs can be either a power for expansion or a tyranny of contraction. The key lies not only in our understanding the nature of mind\, but also how to effortlessly direct the mind rather than struggle to control it. \nSession 3: The Kama Kala: The Sacred Triangle – July 16 \nIn this session we explore the tantric sacred triangle of power and delight\, the Kama Kala. Knowing how to access and utilize your will\, knowledge \, and action provides the certain path to enlightenment. \nSession: Samaya: The Inner Path – August 20 \nWe each must find our unique path to freedom. Gurudev led us in the inner path (Samaya) where all practices are internal. While the external (Kaula) and middle (Mishra) paths are often the starting point\, eventually we must turn totally inwards. Understanding your unique strengths and weaknesses is essential for success in your inward journey. \n\n	\n\n\nPhil Nuernberger\, Ph.D. is a direct disciple of H.H. Sri Swami Rama and was personally trained by Swamiji since 1970. Dr. Phil is one of the few Americans to receive initiation by Swami Rama into the highest levels of the tantric tradition of the Himalayan Sages. With his Master’s instruction and blessing\, Dr. Phil has been teaching and initiating others in this tradition since 1972. He was instrumental in helping Swamiji build the Himalayan Institute\, and served on its Board of Directors until 1992. \nDr. Nuernberger is author of six books. The most recent are Eternal Self \, Freedom’s Path: The Dancing Soul\, The Warrior Sage: Life as Spirit\, as well as\, Strong and Fearless: The Quest for Personal Power and From Loneliness to Love: A Journey of Spiritual Awakening. \n
