Living The Eternal Way

Immersing ourselves in the spiritual teachings opens the door to direct experience of truth and the dawning of spiritual knowledge within us. The next step is putting this knowledge into practice in our lives where it flowers into the wisdom of spiritual experience. Only in this way are our lives truly transformed by the teachings.

Living the Eternal Way is an in-depth 12-week training for those seeking the transforming wisdom of spiritual experience. This course is based on the sacred teachings of the Eternal Way, the universal wisdom found at the heart of all great religions and the spiritual disciplines of Kriya Yoga. Topics include meditation instruction and practice, core teachings on the nature of consciousness and the soul, guidelines for spiritual growth, and the way to transform your life through the cultivation of the virtues such as harmlessness, truthfulness, and right action. This course, through lectures and small group discussion, teaches a universally applicable spiritual path that will challenge your mind, nurture your soul, and change your life.

Registration: For these classes at the Center, preregistration and a commitment to attend a minimum of ten of the twelve sessions is required. For the current schedule of this class and other core teaching related events at the Center, view the Core Teachings Event Calendar.

The Living the Eternal Way course is also available on Video complete with facilitator guide, specifically setup to support home study groups and/or individual exploration.  Best experienced supported by the opportunity to discuss the principles and work together in small groups, we recommend home study groups be established with between three and six persons.
