It shifts our mind into a higher state making it a perfect preparation for the silent meditation.

10:45 – 12:30 – Can You Make it On Your Own?: Exploring the Need for a Teacher (Nayaswami Asha) If truth is universal, why limit yourself to just one path? If the power is within you, why should you listen to anyone else? Is there such a thing as a map for the spiritual path? How do you find a teacher among the huge sea? How do you tell a true teacher from a false one?

In this session Asha will address these pressing questions to help you arrange the ideal conditions for the most effective meditation practice.
