Crystal statue of
Lord Ganesha
the remover of obstacles
This is a magnificent statue or murti of Lord Ganesha, considered in India as the remover of obstacles.
It is made of a solid block of pure crystal quartz and painted with 24 karat yellow gold.
It measures 7 inches wide x 11 inches high.
If you have a yoga studio or if you wish for something special in your home, or if you are already a devotee of Lord Ganesha, this is a truly unique piece.
It has been lovingly cared for the past 5 years and has an exquisite energy about it. My wish is that it will bring the greatest blessings to the one who will be fortunate to care for him next.
Asking price: $2,500
Please contact Anne at anne@annemeplon.com
if you would like to see him.

Studio Space in Rivière-des-Prairies.
I am a Jazzercise instructor who has been teaching in the Rivieres-des-Prairies area for 14 years. I have recently needed to move location and found an amazing place at a reasonable rent for size and location. The situation is that I want free time to spend with my family and friends and do not want to be teaching all the time.
What I would like is something that would compliment what I already do such as yoga, martial arts, or ballroom-dancing, which would be cross-promotable with my fitness classes and already established clientele. I only need the space for 6-8 hours a week, so there is plenty of availability for someone to teach whatever and whenever they could.
If interested please contact me A.S.A.P. Brenda 514-830-1072 or e-mail at bkawiuk@jazzercise.com

The Wisdom of Jesus and the Yoga Siddhas
By Marshall Govindan
Who was Jesus? What were the original teachings of Jesus, before the Christian religion became organized? With the discovery of many new source documents in the Sinai Desert, and with the advent of modern methods of textual analysis by scholars who are independent of institutional bias, today, most Biblical scholars will agree that the books of the Bible's New Testament are written at several levels of authenticity.
What do the most authentic words of Jesus say about who Jesus was and what His teachings were? What do they not say? Answers to these questions are a prerequisite to making comparisons between the teachings of Jesus and the teachings of the Yoga Siddhas. The Yoga Siddha Research Centre in Chennai, India, has brought out a series of six books providing, for the first time, translation and commentary of the Yoga Siddhas, or "perfected" Yogis of India, whose teachings and miraculous powers were remarkably similar to those of Jesus.
This present work presents a comparison between the teachings of the Yoga Siddhas, with the most authentic teachings of Jesus, based upon the results of recent, critical, historical research and textual analysis.

Kriya Yoga Video:
"Babaji's Kriya Hatha Yoga: Self-realization through Action with Awareness"
with Marshall Govindan and Durga Ahlund.
This unique instructional video provides careful detailed instructions in not only the technical performance and alignment of each posture, but also in the higher states of consciousness, which they awaken. It includes an introduction into the philosophy of yoga, the nature of consciousness and the cultivation of Self-awareness. It makes the practice of yoga deeply meditative.
The postures are taught in progressive stages, with preparatory variations making them accessible to the beginner and challenging for the experienced student of yoga. These postures will rejuvenate and energize you!
In the January/February 2002 issue of the Yoga Journal, Richard Rosen had this to say about it:
"This is the first Kriya Hatha Yoga tape to come our way. The teaching, a blend of Patanjali's Kriya Yoga and Kundalini Yoga, is attributed to the legendary Babaji Nagaraj, the ageless Siddha (adept) introduced to Westerners in Paramahansa Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi...This is an earnest, unique and inspiring presentation, suitable for experienced beginners and intermediates."
2 hours DVCAM digital VHS.
Retail price: $29.88 CDN includes shipping and sales tax. Available in five languages.
Produced by Babaji’s Kriya Yoga and Publications, Inc. 196 Mountain Road, P.O. Box 90, Eastman, Quebec, Canada J0E 1P0.

ADAM CANTOR -- SITAR PLAYER
I am a classical trained sitar player who has studied with Ustad Shambhu Das since 1994. Ud. Sahmbhu Das is himself a senior disciple of Pandit Ravi Shankar, and so my playing follows very much in this style.
I have been playing for yoga classes for many years in Toronto (at Catfish Yoga, the Yoga Sanctuary and others) and here in Montreal (at Centre Luna Yoga, Studio Bliss, and others) as well as at the Sivananda Ashram in Val Morin Québec.
I also work closely with tabla player Adam Miller and we are available for weddings and other private or public functions. Demos available upon request.
