Kriya Yoga: Insights Along the Path By M. Govindan and Jan Durga Ahlund
|
Our Newest Publication!
"Kriya Yoga: Insights Along the Path"
By M. Govindan and Jan "Durga" Ahlund
ISBN 978-1-895383-49-2, 161 pages, softcover 6 x 9 inches..
$16.28 CAD (inc. GST) plus $3.50 CAD
for shipping and handling within Canada.
My wife, Jan "Durga" Ahlund and I have recognized for many years the need for a book that would explain to both those interested in learning Kriya Yoga and those already embarked on its path, why they should practice it, what are the difficulties, and how to overcome them. We believe that this book will help prepare everyone for the challenges and opportunities that Kriya Yoga provides.
Every one of us faces the resistance of our human nature, ignorance as to our true identity, and karma, the consequences of years of conditioning by our thoughts, words and actions. By cultivating aspiration for the Divine, rejecting egoism and its manifestations, and surrendering to our higher Self, pure Witness consciousness, we can overcome this resistance, our karma and the many obstacles on the path. But, to do so, we need much support and insight along the way.

OSTEO TOUCH APPROACH
Welcome to the OSTEO TOUCH course, starting September 23rd to December 18th 2011. Over 5 week ends
Taught by Patrick Salibi D.O., Osteopath-yogi, Founder of OSTEO YOGA and the OSTEO TOUCH approach, complemented by specialized guests.
WHAT IS OSTEO TOUCH?
Osteo Touch is an approach developed by osteopath Patrick Salibi, one which insists that the body can heal itself. It is based on the basic principles of osteopathy, however it differs from other osteopathic approaches in that practitioners gain their knowledge from the exploration of their own body. The body speaks its language, and by being attentive we can learn what it has to say.
By working with our own bodies, we can learn to feel and understand how the body functions. This is not theoretical knowledge, but knowledge gained through experimentation and practice.
The understanding gained through practice can then be used when treating others. When the mind is not clouded by theories, the hands can feel what’s going on.
COURSE STATEMENT:
This training has been conceived for those who want to deepen their progression in health and healing. Students will find a space that will allow them to develop their interior resources in order to better accompany their clients. In choosing to participate in this course, the student will have to face the entirety of his/her tensions, which requires courage, engagement and an opening to deep transformation. OSTEO YOGA is the method that will be practiced to guide you in this inner research and learning process. Thus, the pupil will acquire the tools to become an anchor point for his/her present and future clientele, offering a deep and precise touch.

Bio-Cosmo-Energy
EXPAND YOUR ENERGY through a Bio-Cosmo-Energy Treatment
Bio-Cosmo-Energy focuses on our unity of
spirit (cosmic energy) and body (material earth energy).
Our bodies are animated by the universal energy coursing within. Our psyche, interrelates between spirit and body. A split, or dichotomy, between spirit and body shows itself as a dis-balance, dis-ease or a sickness in our bodies. These dysfunctions are frequently not even recognized for what they are, since a lifetime of societal conditioning has trained us to ignore, or worse mistrust, our real feelings.
In a healthy body the energy is fluid and light, vibrating in a harmonious frequency.
A Bio-Cosmo-Energy treatment stimulates a source we may not even be aware of: the energy of our essence. Through guided energy work this potential is brought up from the depths through several layers until we can start to “know” what our soul is really trying to tell us.
The focal points are the three main energy channels; sumsumna, ida and pingala, which form the Kundalini channel located in and along the spine. Bio-Cosmo-Energy treatments may also assist in liberating this “nerve of awareness”. Symbolized by a coiled serpent in the sacral plexus, this latent energy is encouraged to rise upwards. Used consciously, this cosmic life-force can allow us “go less troubled” through this era of rapid transformation. We may even start to appreciate it!
Since physical energy-blockages are often the result of unconscious emotions trapped within the body, the receiver decides whether to go consciously into a profound self-reflection or to just allow the physical to release of these emotions. Naturally, deeper reflection results in a freer flow of energy throughout the body thus encouraging long term physical and emotional health.
Experience has shown that these Bio-Cosmo-Energy treatments frequently evolve into a very deep meditation, a conscious experience of the unification of spirit, free mind and body.
Cost: $130 (2 hours)
