To help us live from divine wisdom within, the study of our true Self and sacred scripture is one of the foundational practices in Kriya Yoga. In this tradition, we do not study sacred scripture to find answers within the pages of the text. Instead, we study scripture to reveal the divine wisdom that already indwells each of us, and that is waiting to be heard by us now.
Instructor: Paula Whang-Ramos

Join us in spiritual community for a time of meditation, study, and contemplation of the Bhagavad Gita, a foundational text for yoga and meditation.
