Communi-Tea with Paul Cabanis {03.29}

Service Description

Next Session Date: March 29th, 2024 7PM Topic: Open Here at Pür Joy, we believe that friendship, community and companionship is the core of our spiritual path. This month we will dive into topics related to the traditions of yoga & meditation as they relate to our present moment. Yoga practice can be seen as a three-tiered process of Sadhanasang, Sastrasang and Satsang. Of these the first two are personal endeavors and the last refers to gathering in community. All of them however are understood as functions of a close knit family of people interested in Reality. This is indicated by the root “sang” referring to sangha (community). Sadhana refers to individual practice, Sastra to studying teachings pertaining to that practice and subsequent realizations and finally Sat to Being/Reality which in the case of Satsang means being together and sharing perceptions/realizations so as to avoid becoming locked into any isolated point of view and to learn about the great variety of perspectives. Silence, sound, tea and dialogue will be offered. Paul has been teaching Yoga since 1991. After learning from the Iyengar family at their Institute in Pune, India, as well as many teachers in their lineage, Paul has immersed himself in the study of yoga thought and practice and weaves the philosophical and somatic aspects of yoga into his classes.
