Philosophy and Yoga in One Package: The Sacred Upanishads

Yoga Philosophy with Eric Shaw

Learn about the origins of today’s yoga practice that can be found in the Upanishads. They are India’s first  pure works of philosophy. These 13 texts, some of which are almost 3000 years old, first used the word “yoga” for the kind of practices we do today. We read here of disciplines that set us upright, restrain our senses, guide our minds, and direct our breath. more »

Love and Destruction in the Yogic Body

Burning BuddhaWhy the Buddha Burns with Eric Shaw

Every culture experiences the body differently, and yogic culture is no different.  From the earliest times, yogis explored our anatomy within altered states, seeing subtle structures hidden from the everyday eye. They developed a science of energy sheaths called Koshas, breath forces called Pranas, and energy centers called Chakras.   Yoga and Ayurveda used these new insights to build regimens for health and self-realization.  Early practitioners learned the power of love and what it does to the body.  The Buddha ignited his attachments in the flame of the open heart.  How did he do it?  Exactly?  Come learn how the yogic body is built and what tools we have for its transformation.  Lecture cost:  $20.
