Experience the Divine
Mother’s Blessings
Amma Sri
Karunamayi Saturday, June 2, 2012
"It is meditation that will liberate us from the sensory world and give us the experience of the pure Divine Consciousness."
|
Based on the success of last year's retreats, Amma has graciously offered to continue having One Day Retreats as part of her 2012 Tour. They are being offered so that more people can take advantage of this precious time with Amma in a retreat setting without disrupting their busy schedules. The retreats will provide an invaluable opportunity for devotees to deepen their meditation practice and to listen to the inspirational wisdom of Amma's divine discourses. We cordially extend Amma's invitation to join Her for a one day silent meditation retreat at St. Luke's United Church in Toronto, ON. All meditators, from beginners to those with an established practice, will benefit from the special retreat atmosphere. All will be spiritually nourished by Amma's serene presence, silent meditations, discourses and spiritual chanting. Many cities will have meditation retreats during Sri Karunamayi's tour of North America. Please register early since these retreats tend to fill up fast. A light lunch and snacks will be provided as part of the registration fee. There will be also be a Meditation Retreat during the Guru Purnima Celebration in Atlanta, GA at the end of the tour.

Xenia’s 500 hour Sananda Devi Yoga Teacher Training course has components that make this training unique and different from any other teacher trainings that are offered in the city (ie: learning more detailed philosophy, Ayurvedic studies, Yoga Nidra, and studying Sanskrit and Jyotish Astrology). The 
course was a transformational experience and I felt overwhelmed with gratitude at the generosity of course content. More and more learning experiences unfolded throughout the course and Xenia had a way of helping us not only prepare to become yoga teachers but to really discover ourselves on this journey along the way. Xenia created an atmosphere that felt so safe and so welcoming for us to bring the things that we are struggling with in life out into the open. She made it feel so natural to be able to share every little energetic shift that I was going through and you could tell that the entire group felt the same way. This course helped me realized that you have to know yourself and the struggles that every human spirit has with their ego before you can offer the most to your future yoga students and best support them emotionally and spiritually. Xenia is such a natural spiritual leader and she has so many blessings and gifts to offer to everyone that studies with her.

I am forever grateful for my yoga teacher training at Sananda. I had been looking for years for the right program and the moment I found out Anandashakti would be creating a program I wanted to participate. It did not fail to deliver. Anandashakti's dedication and experience guided my long time practice and love of yoga to a deeper and richer experience of yoga as an art of living. Long live Yoga Nidra! Once I began teaching I found I could walk into any studio and any teaching experience an264eel comfortable and teach a fulfilling class. I have taught seniors, children, students with physical and mental disabilities, private classes, huge groups, chatty teenagers, nervous and reluctant first timers, wisend and experienced yogis and even my own Mother with confidence knowing that my training from Sananda was practical, valuable, guiding and something special.
