I want to join the program but..

If you’re not stressed, great! You’re living the best life. But consider this: Do you start saving money only when you’re running out of it? Or start exercising only when you’ve lost your health? No, right? So how about building those inner reserves of resilience and strength for times when you could need them? But hey, it’s your call. You could wait till you are stressed and this workshop will still be around to help you.

You don’t need to be able to stand on your head to be able to get the benefit of the courses offered by the Art of Living!

The breathing techniques and meditation techniques taught in our programs do not need any special physical skills and are practiced by millions of people around the world from the ages of five to ninety!

You are busy now, but when will you be happy? Joy is found only in the present moment. Yet usually we find the mind swinging back and forth between the past and the future. We feel regretful or angry about something that has happened to us, or we worry about the way things will turn out. Observe your mind.
 
If you notice, you postpone the good things but never postpone negative things. You never say, “I will postpone my anger, do you?”
 
You postpone your happiness until some perfect future date, but it never arrives. If you live life now, tomorrow will take care of itself. This is the Art of Living.

The Art of Living Courses are not expensive.  There are expenses when courses are organized. The volunteers have to rent a hall, get supplies. So a percent of the course contribution is spent on course expenses. Remaining funds go to support service projects all over Nepal.

Also, if you offer the course free, people don’t value it. People don’t take responsibility to sit and learn. 

Yes, of course! Regular practice of the Sudarshan Kriya™ is known to improve sleep, boost immunity, and lower stress and depression levels. You only need to read these testimonials of people who have benefitted from the workshop. Be sure to let your teacher know your ailments beforehand so they can give you the best and most customized experience!

The cornerstone of the Art of Living courses is a technique called “Sudarshan KriyaTM“. Sudarshan means the right vision of who I am.“Kriya” means purifying action. It produces a deep calm in the mind while every cell in the body becomes enlivened with energy. This cleansing process powerfully dissolves stress. In one hour’s time, after the very first practice, you will see how the energy, the mind, and oxygen penetrate deep into every cell of your body and cleanse you on a very deep level. Every cell of your body gets cleansed, energized, and more oxidized.
 
Have you ever wondered how does a negative thought arise? If you attend to the source of negative thought you will realize that they come because of tension and stress. A relaxed, happy person will not get negative thoughts. You see? The more miserable one is, the more negative thoughts come. Instead of rubbing the mind with a positive thought, go deep into yourself, through the breath, through meditation, and cleanse the system. Go to the root of it, eliminate the cause, the very root of negativity. It doesn’t take a long time. Especially with the Sudarshan KriyaTM, it’s so immediate. Just two days of practice, one hour each day, cleanses the body so much, makes you feel so light.

Upanayanam Ceremony

 

Upanayanam is one of the most important Samskārās in a person’s life. “Upa” means ‘close’ and “Nayana” means ‘to bring’. Upanayanam means to bring closer to the Guru or Divine. Upanayanam also called the ‘sacred thread ceremony’ is a ceremony performed to mark the point at which children began their formal education in the Vedic tradition.

Upanayanam is traditionally seen as getting a new birth in the spiritual world towards the higher knowledge of the Self. It is an initiation process to learning the sacred chants and mantras according to the Vedic tradition. Upanayanam ceremony is complete with the wearing of the Yajnopavitam (Sacred Thread) on the body. The child is initiated into the most sacred Gayatri mantra in the Brahmopadesham ceremony. He is taught the Sandhyāvandanam.

The Gayatri mantra is a prayer to invoke brilliance and purity in our intellect and consciousness. The three threads in the Yagnopaveetam represent the responsibility towards the one self, family and society. During Upanayanam, the great Gayatri Mantra is imparted to the participant as it is considered as the greatest of all upadesams and is called “Brahmopadesam”.

Maha Shivratri is the day when the Shiva Tattva touches the earth. The consciousness, the aura or the ethereal world which is always ten inches above the material ground, touches the earth element on the day of Maha Shivratri. It is the wedding of the material with the spiritual.

Shivratri is taking refuge in the divine consciousness which brings peace and solace to all layers of consciousness. So resting in the Shiva Tattva is Shivratri.

The Significance of Maha Shivratri

According to the Shiva Purana when Shiva was asked by Parvati, what pleases him the most, he is supposed to have replied, ‘The 14th night of the new moon, of the month of Phalgun is my favorite day.’ This is known as Shivratri.

Ratri means ‘to take refuge’. Shivratri is taking refuge in Shiva, in the soul. It is celebrating the Shiva Tatva within oneself.

We celebrate maha shivaratri every year at Art of Living Center, Shankhamul.

The Significance of Navratri!

“The word ‘Ratri’ means deep rest or relief from three ‘tapas’, three types of fire or botherations- the physical, the subtle, and the conscious. A deep rest can relieve you from all these three botherations.

It’s a time of prayer and rejuvenation. A child is born in nine months. These nine days are like coming out of a mother’s womb once again. Having a new birth.”

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

At the time of Dashain (Navratri). We regularly celebrate Navratri in Vedic Style by doing puja nad homa at Art of Living Park, Shankhamul.

Rudra Pooja is an ancient practice followed in sanatana dharma since time immemorial. ‘Rudra’ means ‘Shiva – the Benevolent’, ‘ the Destroyer of Evil’. ‘Pooja’ means that which is born out of fullness. Through this Pooja one can aim for inner peace and fulfillment. In this Pooja, Lord Shiva is worshipped in his Rudra form.

It is hailed by all Vedic scriptures as one of the greatest Poojas to remove all evils, to attain all desires and for all-round prosperity. Scriptures on Astrology prescribe this emphatically as a remedy for several planetary doshas.

Satarudriyam or Sri Rudradhyayam is the very essence of all Veda branches (Sakhas). Hence it is also known as Sri Rudropanishad. Principally, this Rudradhyayam, which forms the fifth Prasna in the fourth Kanda of Krishna Yajurveda, is a composition describing the greatness of Sri Parameswara, with universe as his form and his transcendence beyond the manifest universe, and extolling him and seeking his grace.

We as Vedic Dharma Sansthan – Nepal conducts puja at Art of Living Center regularly.
