Live More Superconsciously

Monday, January 25th, 2010

by Haridas Blake, excerpted from “Live More Superconsciously”, from the proceedings of the 40th National Convention of the Indian Society for Training and Development, 11-13 February 2010, Bangalore. Haridas also lead a pre-conference workshop, “Energizing the Trainer: Tools to Increase Your Magnetism and Impact”.)

Everyday, we experience living on many levels of our being. Our energy lifts up and drops down. Our awareness brightens and dims. Most people consider these experiences their lot in life! They may reason that some are born happy while others less so—there’s not much one can do but squeeze the most out of life and forget the rest. The art and science of yoga takes a more energetic approach to the challenges of life’s constant ups and downs.

The formula is simple and straightforward: practice inner stillness and you will know your center. (more…)

Harmony at Work Interview on Bloomberg-UTV

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

Here is the video. The following is transcript of the unabridged interview. It has been edited slightly for clarity.

Hi Dharmaraj. First of all, what is ‘Harmony at Work’? What is this program all about?

by Peter van Houten, M.D.

Dr. van Houten serves as Medical Director of the Sierra Family Medical Clinic and is a longtime resident of Ananda Village. This article was originally published in Ananda’s Clarity Online Magazine.

In the early 1980’s, I attended a revolutionary conference for scientists who specialize in the brain and nervous system called, “The Ever-changing Brain.” New information was being discovered about the nature of our brain and central nervous system that corroborated strongly with what the ancient spiritual traditions of yoga said about the brain’s ability to change. According to the old scientific model in the West the brain didn’t change much during a person’s lifetime. The brain developed through childhood and adolescence and somewhere around age twenty, it was thought, our brain cells began to die off without being replaced. After that, it was a race to see how many brain cells you would lose before you died! It was pretty grim. (more…)
