Hi Xxxxxx,
Thank you for reaching out. I’m looking forward to coffee next week.
Here are two links to the essence of what I teach: Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, a 200-line text universally recognized as the authoritative source of Raja Yoga.
I practice and teach the first two chapters (the science and preparation required to experience the secret of life).
Here are links to loose translations of those two parts of Patanjali’s gift to humanity:
Chapter 1 – how this experience is possible
Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras are a guidebook or treasure map to experience something that can’t otherwise be understood: the secret of life!
The yoga sutras are proof of the underlying hypothesis that our consciousness is unlike EVERYTHING else in the known universe.
Consciousness alone is not affected by time and space. It’s literally the only “thing” known to man that’s eternally free of the perpetual law and consequences of karma which generate equal measures of suffering and joy.
The awareness OF our thoughts is as distinct from our thoughts as our fingers are from our ears!
In the process of learning to control our mind, we eventually come to the realization that consciousness is a horse of a completely different color!!
It’ll freak you out. If it hasn’t, don’t stop trying to realize the difference!!!!!! THAT is Raja Yoga.
Chapter 2 – how to prepare for the experience
Chapter 2 tells us how to prepare for the journey of a lifetime.
The chapter is broken into two parts: the first stressing the importance of our attitude, the second includes step-by-step instructions to prepare for the internal journey.
I’m open to virtually anything to get the word out that within EACH of us is something superhuman!
Speaking of which, I hope you’ll come to hear me try to enlighten the town of Marblehead on May 22 at 7am at Masonic Temple on Pleasant St. Please bring a contribution for the Food Pantry!
Blessings, Skip
