“In every person there is a sun, just let them shine."

-Socrates

"Take my hand. We will walk. We will enjoy our walk without thinking of arriving anywhere." ~Thich Nhat Hanh

Have you always wanted to learn the Chalisa? I’m excited to invite you on a journey of exploring and learning the incredible 500 year old, 40 verse devotional hymn, “The Hanuman Chalisa”. I’ve been asked numerous times to provide an opportunity like this…and finally… here it is!

We will gather live online (Zoom) for one hour every Monday for 7 weeks (Jan. 10, 17, 24, 31, Feb. 7, 14, 21) at 10 a.m. Central/ 11:00 a.m. EST

Your investment: $108 USD
(there are a few partial scholarships available, contact us for details)

We will focus on a different section of the Chalisa each week, building upon the sections we’ve learned in previous sessions; we will share stories of Hanuman; and sing the entire Chalisa each session. I will also provide exercises for memorization and guidance/suggestions for your own daily practice during our 7 week program and beyond. Let us celebrate and praise the glories of the ultimate Bhakti yogi and Devotee, Hanuman! While we remind him of his courage, strength, humility and strength, we in turn remind ourselves of those qualities within us. What a gift we will give ourselves and each other!

Gary Brachmann is setting up a kick starter for a Midwest Yoga and Kirtan Festival tentatively June 29-July 1 2018, in Madison, WI. $150/ticket, for a goal of 500 tickets. As I understand it, if the goal is not reached, you get your money back.

Kickstarter will begin in the next 3 days for Midwest Yoga and Kirtan Fest June 28-July2 2018,and will run for 60 days.I realize this is a huge task for everyone with 500 tickets,but the only way I know that all festival attendees will be guaranteed this is to happen.The 500 tickets are just short of the amount of money needed for all performers,staff and presenters pay,hotels,and venue.I just want to be upfront and honest about it all.If this works nobody will regret it,and if it does not Thank You ALL for your consideration for this new festival.Blessings, Gary

Yoga for Self-Realization

Yoga in the Bhagavad Gita:
February 28: (8.12-8.13) Closing all the doors of the body and retaining the mind in the heart, placing the prana in the crown of the head, established in the concentration of YOGA—OM, this is Brahman consisting of a single, indestructible syllable. He who, enunciating it and contemplating it, goes forth abandoning his body, he reaches the supreme state.
