Meditation Know How

Jnaneshwari Chaitanya

12 WEEKLY SESSIONS, Tuesdays, 1:00-2:30pm ET

“No more words. Retire into a solitary room. Close your eyes. Have deep silent meditation. Dive deep into the innermost recesses of the heart. Drink the nectar of immortality.”

~ Swami Sivananda

Starting a meditation practice on your own can feel overwhelming, even when you know how much it will benefit you. Whether you are brand new to meditation or want to refresh your practice, this course gives you the building blocks for a strong meditation routine.

Meditation reduces stress and teaches us to overcome negative emotions like anger, depression, or anxiety. Meditation enhances our health, vitality and happiness. Meditation builds confidence and self-esteem.

Meditation ultimately takes us to the highest realm of Superconsciousness wherein Supreme Bliss and Peace is realized as our very being.

In this course, you will learn everything you need to know in order to become established in your practice of meditation. Jnaneshwari Chaitanya will guide you into practices with personal attention and will be available for questions and personal guidance.

What you’ll learn:

  • How to develop attention and concentration
  • What is meditation
  • Prerequisites for meditation
  • Favorable places for meditation
  • Suitable diet for meditation
  • Guidelines to successful meditation
  • Practice of meditation
  • Experiences and visions in meditation
  • The most common obstacles in meditation
  • Samadhi (Superconscious state)

“Unfold the Divinity that is lurking in your heart by concentration and meditation. Don’t waste your time. Don’t waste your life. Meditate. Meditate.”

Swami Sivananda

What People Are Saying About Jnaneshwari Chaitanya...

"I have been studying the Bhagavad Gita with Jnaneshwari continuously in a small group setting for the past 2 years and it has been a transformative life experience for me. I am able to have more control of my emotions, feel less anxious about life, am less judgmental, and fully trust that all that happens to me is for my growth ultimately. The sublime teachings taught with repetition from week to week allows me to learn drop by drop, and Jnaneshwari makes it so enjoyable. Each week the class engages in a 90 minute discourse where we are free to ask as many questions as necessary to understand the language of the text. I have also learned that the study happens over time and each week’s teaching builds on the previous week. Patience, humility, understanding, forgiveness self and others, self-control, and trust are some of the virtues that have been improved in my life over the past 2 years. I look forward to this precious time weekly with my classmates new and old"
- Maya F.
"Thanks to her excellent instruction style and depth of teaching, I am happy to say that I now am in my fourth Bhagavad Gita class with Jnaneshwari Chaitanya and looking forward to the next. She brings a shining enthusiasm and extensive knowledge to every class. Even though I started in the middle of the Gita discourses, a very helpful overview was provided so that I never felt lost or confused. "
- Leslie S.
"I absolutely love Gita's course by Jnaneswari Chaitanya. Can't wait every Monday to hear her teaching. Her voice is so calming, when you listen to her, you feel like a reborn. My first course led by her was in February after I found an advertisement for the ashram on Instagram. 6 weeks later I was 100% sure that I would love to participate in the next course. And here I am : more peaceful, caring and loving woman on her spiritual path surrounded by great teachers as Jnaneshwari! Thank you! "
- Nelly M.
"I completed my yoga teachers training in 2000 at the Ashram in Bahamas and although the Bhagavad Gita was part of the curriculum, I can honestly say I didn't really understand or appreciate it. As life got more complex and and the world seemed increasingly fragile I felt drawn to spiritual teachings that could offer some explanation of our true purpose here, along with tools to separate things that are important from those which are not. I enrolled in the online course taught by Jnaneshwari Chaitanya , which explores the Gita, in-depth, chapter by chapter. Jnaneshwari is a compassionate teacher who can explain complex ideas clearly and at a pace that allows for a deep understanding of the concepts. It still amazes me that words that were written over five thousand years ago can help make sense of the struggles that the world currently faces, while giving us a blueprint for keeping our own equilibrium. Although it would be lovely to be able to be at the Ashram, the online course allows for a weekly "visit" without all the travel that a trip would entail. I highly recommend this course taught by Jnaneshwari."
- Sheila M.
