Announcement:
\n<\/strong>MYM\u2019s Series \u201cPositive Transformation in Times of Change\u201d
\npresents
\n<\/strong>Disarming the Mind for Freedom \u2013 Part 4
\n<\/strong>Friday, April 2nd<\/sup> 7-8 pm<\/h3>\n

With our eyes fixed on the external world, internal observation of the mind is more challenging than ever before. Glimpse just beyond the realm of our immediate perception, to the battle waging constantly within our minds that keeps us in an un-free state, and seek together with us to disarm its factions in a step towards Freedom.<\/p>\n

\u00a0In past programs, we have been working on the recognition of the unfree state of our minds, dependent and vulnerable to external conditions. In this next program, we will introduce an important tool for us to use to assist in this process\u2014asana<\/em> (physical postures of Yoga).<\/p>\n

Asana: A Tool for Cultivating the Field
\n<\/strong>Cultivating the land is hard work that requires time, effort, and patience before it bears fruits. Cultivating the field of the mind is no different, though the tools that are needed are certainly of a different kind.<\/p>\n

The first step in cultivation requires seeing what\u2019s already in the field, recognizing what\u2019s already in the mind\u2014no matter how entangled and overgrown it may be with its own activities. Asana<\/em> is a practice that can help us not only begin to see the field, but to also start clearing away the overgrowth. In this program, join us in our learning about what asana<\/em> is, where it comes from, the importance and significance of it in cultivating the mind to walk on the path towards Freedom\u2014and experience a small taste of asana<\/em> for yourself.<\/p>\n

Speakers: Karuna and Sadhya
\nSuggested:<\/strong>\u00a0Please arrive without a full stomach to have the opportunity to experience the maximum benefit a few seated asana<\/em> (physical postures) that will be introduced during the program.<\/p>\n
