“If you do not find peace within, you will not find it anywhere else. The Goal of Life is the attainment of Peace and not the achievement of power, name, fame and wealth.” – Swami Sivananda

In today’s  stress-inducing world, people often seek alternative forms of healing with the aim of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Making Yoga a part of your daily routine would definitely help to lead a balanced and healthy life.

“Nava Shakti Dhyana” a five-day meditation series offers an opportunity to experience a rich source of wisdom, healing and knowledge along with scientific developments shaped according to our daily needs. The Meditation series is to be held from April 27-  30 and May 1, at Astanka Yoga Mandir, one of the oldest Yoga schools in Sri Lanka.

The programme will be led by Vyasah Kalyanasunderam, yoga  instructor at Astanka Yoga Mandir, chief instructor at the Indian Cultural Centre, and co- founder of A.A.Y.U.S.H (Allopathy, Ayurvedha, Yoga, Unani, Siddha, Homeopathy).  The  morning session will be from 6 a.m.- 7.30 a.m and the evening session from 7 p.m.- 8.30 p.m.

The Astanka Yoga Mandir (AYM) provides resources and facilities to learn and practise the yogic knowledge of the great eastern traditions. Since 1953 the Guru lineage of Astanka Yoga Mandir has been associated and rooted with the spiritual traditions of the Himalayan saint Swami Sivananda Saraswathy Maharaj, founder of the Divine Life Society, Rishikesh, India. A direct and first lady disciple of the Swami, Selvam Kalyanasunderam, a barrister and attorney-at- Law, Sanskrit scholar and an authority on Yogic scriptures, was the founder of Astanka Yoga Mandir. More than 15,000 people have studied at the yoga school and now teach in different parts of Sri Lanka.

Kalyanasunderam started practising meditation from the age of five. He was initiated into this school of Yoga by Swami Dhattaramagiri, a well known Yoga personality in Sri Lanka and went on to qualify as a yoga instructor and yoga therapist.

Considering the fact that most of the great techniques are universal techniques, the ‘Nava Shakti Dhyana’ meditation is suitable for anyone regardless of age or religion.

“Just like a nation has so many unique resources, an individual possesses so much of resources, talents and energies,” says Kalyanasunderam.

“In Yoga, stress is a great energy and we don’t consider it as an unwanted energy. Because that energy has been created due to the excessive work, it should not be wasted. How to use that energy back in you and gointo a very calm quiet personality or how to make yourself more talented are the things which we will be able to come to know in these sessions,” he explained.
