Agni plays a crucial role in our own spiritual practice and evolution. It has the power to purify both our inner and outer environment and is fundamental to the path of Yoga Ecology.

Monthly Satsang
Monthly Satsangs - Coming
Together as Community
Satsang” is a combination of two sanskrit words: sat meaning “Truth” and sanga meaning “in company of”. So when we gather for satsang we are coming together in the company or community of Truth.
The Yoga Academy of North America (YANA), are delighted to be hosting these monthly informal gatherings of spiritual reflection, discussion, meditation and other practices to support each other on the journey of living yoga from moment to moment.
Each month we will invite master teachers (acharyas), aspiring yogis/yoginis, sevaks and devotees of the Satyananda Yoga community to offer support & inspiration on the path of yogic living.
DETAILS OF SATSANG FOR May
Emergence of the Tattvas
with Kapilmurti
May 18th, 6pm EST
In the Upaniṣads we find a model for Creation. It consists of twenty-four components. These twenty-four tattvas constitute the created world.
In its full form, the model beautifully integrates the guṇas, the five elements, the three bodies (causal, subtle, and gross), the three states of experiences, the five sheaths (kośas), the aspects of the mind, the sense capacities, the organs ofaction, the prāṇas, and the physical body.
What is the purpose of this model?
The Upaniṣads explore the nature of reality, consciousness, and the relationship between the individual soul and the ultimate reality. In this exploration the Upaniṣads must necessarily deal with the empirical reality we face everyday. Our experiences must be explained. Indeed, the Upaniṣads examine the content of all human experiences. To facilitate this endeavor the Upaniṣads present us with a model, a point of view, which serves as a framework within which we mayunderstand our experiences.
We will delve into this remarkable model, not with a view to engage in philosophical enquiry, but to help us appreciate the splendor, profundity, and vastness of the vision of the Upaniṣads as well as to better understand the structure of practices presented to us by the spiritual masters to guide our journey to the core of our own being

DETAILS OF SATSANG FOR APRIL
Understanding Mantra Sadhana
with Swami Muktibodhananda
April 13th, 6pm EST (April 14th, 8am Australia)
The benefits of incorporating mantra into our sadhana and daily life are manifold. The chosen mantra can act as a constant reminder of our values, goals and/or desired states of being.
The outcomes and effects may be quite different depending on the type of mantra used, whether Vedic or Tantric. Repeating a mantra throughout the day, even briefly, can subtly shift our perspective, helping us navigate challenges with greater equanimity and maintain a positive outlook.
Whether it's our guru mantra or a mantra for compassion, strength, or peace, mantra can empower us to embody these qualities in our interactions and decisions.
During this 75 minute satsang, Swami Muktibodhananda will delve into the use of Vedic and Tantric mantra, offering guidance on when and how to use them depending on what our purpose may be. Participants are encouraged to share their experiences working with mantra as well as ask any questions on the topic.
Ultimately, mantra repetition to cultivate health, inner peace, focus, and intentionality enriches both our meditative practice and overall well-being.
