Sadhana Circle
A One-Year Journey of Strengthening Your Practice

Monthly Gatherings with Jnaneshwari Chaitanya

12 MONTHLY SESSIONS, Saturdays, 2:00-3:00pm ET

Awaken the Power of Your Resolves

Have you ever made a spiritual resolution with great sincerity, only to see it fade away after some weeks or months? You are not alone. The challenge is not in making resolves — it is in keeping them alive.

The Sadhana Circle is a joyful, supportive, and transformative space where your inspiration will no longer fade but grow stronger. Month after month we will come together in prayer, practice, and reflection, learning how to take meaningful resolves, how to sustain them, how to cultivate virtues step by step, and how to draw strength from walking the path together. With the guidance of the teachings and the encouragement of community, your resolves will become the foundation for lasting transformation.

When & How

  • We meet once a month on Saturdays from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. ET.
  • An email reminder will be sent the day prior to meeting.
  • Each session is recorded and available to all participants.
  • One-year journey: 12 sessions from mid-November 2025 to mid October 2026.

What People Are Saying About Jnaneshwari Chaitanya...

"I have been practicing meditation for a number of years, albeit on and off. I have also been initiated and have taken other courses as well. However, Jnaneshwari’s course titled "Meditation Know how” went beyond teaching just the act of meditation and covered many other aspects including all important breathing techniques, posture, different types of meditation, ideal meditation room, diet, obstacles, distractions and much more. Beyond the content of the course, it was Jnaneshwari’s personal depth of wisdom, knowledge, conviction, dedication and personal tranquility that effectively complemented the content of the course and made this a very spiritual experience for me. "
- Farhad Rahbary
"I knew nothing about meditation. The course gave me an understanding of what meditation is, and how to effectively practice meditation. I appreciated the patience and individual attention the teacher gave each student. Students were allowed to ask questions. The teacher was available for personal guidance during the class session, and outside of class via email. I would encourage anyone interested in meditation, beginner or advanced, to take this class.."
- M. Butler, Ohio, USA
"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.
