The Power of Thought – Online

with Swami Gurucharanananda "Mataji"

September 12 - 13, 2020

In this online workshop, discover the power of thought with Swami Gurucharanananda, lovingly called “Mataji”. Thoughts are alive! The speed and power of thoughts is unimaginable. Learn how a desire stimulates a thought, a thought embodies itself as an action, and actions constitute the web of our destiny.

We are playing with many kinds of thoughts these days, so let’s try to let our thoughts create the best possible future for everything in our lives.

Thoughts make a person, people make a civilization! There is a powerful “thought force” behind every event in life. A new age is awakening, now. How can we contribute positively to that future? Your thoughts are expressed in words and acted out in deeds. Actions change results from ‘right-thinking”. Can I have a powerful, good thought for the world?

Clear, strong thoughts make clear, helpful actions happen. Thought power is behind all the events and growth in history. What are some ideal thoughts, that acted upon with sincere leadership and conviction, will bring light and vision to the world?

Mataji is a senior sannyasi (monk) and disciple of Swami Satchidananda. She is a guided meditation leader, Hatha Yoga teacher, inspiring speaker, Integral Yoga mentor, and private retreat guide.

Live sessions with Mataji on Saturday at 10–11:30 am and 2–3:30 pm and Sunday at 10–11:30 am EDT.

In addition, you will have access to the Ashram’s Live Hatha Yoga classes at 5 pm, recorded Ashram meditations, and inspiring talk with Sri Swami Satchidananda. You will also have access to an online social community to connect and communicate with other participants about this course.

You will have access to the video recordings for 8 weeks after the program ends, until November 8.
