The experiences of two graduates
Amanda
"Hi.
My name is Amanda and I am fifteen years old.
This past June , when I was still fourteen, I completed
Yogi Hari’s Beginner Teacher’s Training
Course. I would like to tell you about my
experience and the ways in which it has truly changed
my life.
"As
you can imagine, I walked into the ashram on day one
feeling really nervous. All the other students
were at least ten years older than me! As it turned
out I had nothing to fear, and we became friends right
away. Over the next couple of weeks we started to feel
like we were one big family. All of us, including Tara,
Omkara, and the little yogis supported one another as
we moved through this transformation of mind, body,
and spirit.
"The
bell rang, calling us to meditation at five thirty in
the morning! It wasn't always a welcome wake up call,
but by six I unfailingly found myself sitting cross-legged
on the floor, ready to begin the day with meditation.
The daily schedule was rigorous, but I greatly enjoyed
the challenge and discipline it provided. I found each
activity to be fulfilling in its own way. Yogi Hari's
lectures were always inspiring. I absorbed so much knowledge
and it was never boring. One of my favorite activities
was chanting, because it was so releasing and came right
from the soul. Of course everyone looked forward to
mealtimes, and were often involved in helping to prepare
them for karma yoga. I quickly adjusted to, and
felt the benefits of eating twice a day. This
transition was made a lot easier by Tara's delicious
vegetarian cuisine! The Hatha (asana) Yoga practice
was challenging, but fun. When I started this course,
I was almost a beginning student myself- I couldn't
even touch my toes! My practice improved greatly throughout
the course. Each day I discovered newfound flexibility
and strength. Now I can perform more advanced postures
which I had believed were impossible for me to accomplish
before.Karma Yoga was my favorite time of day. I learned
the importance of patience and having a positive attiude.
I experienced the joy and peace selfless service brings
to your heart during Karma Yoga.
"Yogi
Hari is an amazing teacher, mentor, and friend. I was
priveledged to spend two weeks with him and his beautiful
family. I continue to practice yoga every day, and I
have received an opportunity to teach here in my community
in Northern California. I am calling my teaching practice
Harmony Yoga. I highly recommend the Teacher's Training
Course to men and women of all ages. This experience
continues to nurture my body, mind and spirit. Thank
you, Yogi Hari!
"Om
Shanti! - Amanda."
Omkara
Hi,
My name is Omkara, and I would like to share with you
the experience that I have had with Sampoorna Yoga and
encourage you to participate in the Sampoorna Yoga Teacher’s
Certification Course and the Advanced Course. I have
been blessed with the opportunity to participate in
both of them in November 2005.
When I came for the 200 hours SYTCC , I did not really
know what to expect. I wanted to deepen my knowledge
and understanding about Yoga and also to have the proper
foundation and experience to pass that knowledge on
to others. After the first time that I met Shri Yogi
Hari, I knew that I came to the right place. I cannot
even begin to describe how much the experience in the
Ashram exceeded my expectations. I loved the course
so much that I decided to stay for the Advanced course
that began the same day the beginners course ended.
The Advanced course was a continuation of the amazingly
transforming experience that I was going through. It
gave me such a deep understanding about what Yoga really
is, and as I continue to teach, I realize how much I
have learnt in those 5 weeks.
I have never met anybody like Yogi Hari. He is truly
an enlightened Master! His teachings are so clear and
inspiring. His approach is deep, simple and practical,
and helps people from every background live a richer,
happier life based on lasting Yogic values.
Most places that teach Yoga just keep people on the
surface in superstition and delusion. Not Yogi Hari!
He is so sincere and straightforward in his teachings;
he has risen above all delusions and illusions and he
is a divine lamp that lights the light of knowledge
within you. What a master like him can teach you in
2 weeks, will take other people years to teach!
Before I came to the course I was addicted to Marijuana,
cigarettes, alcohol, caffeine, unhealthy food, and other
degrading activities. My body was full of toxins and
therefore my face was covered with real bad Acne. I
was a real confused person, with no real goal and purpose
in life.
Before the course started I was afraid that it will
be hard for me to quit all these addictions. My mind
was trying to find excuses to stay in its own degraded
state. I was really amazed how easy it was for me to
stop with all of that. My time in the Ashram gave me
the strength of mind and will power to stay away from
all of these degrading activities. The knowledge of
Sampoorna Yoga has given me the tools to find happiness
from within and not be dependant on external things
for that.
When I came back home, my family and friends were amazed
at the incredible transformation that I had gone through
in the time that I spent in the Ashram. My face completely
cleared up, my body became lighter and much healthier,
and my mind became so much clearer and focused. I look
and feel so much happier, healthier and alive now!
As I go on teaching Sampoorna Yoga, I realize what
an amazing system of teaching and practice it is. From
my own experience and from my students’ experiences
I know that the improvement is so fast as compared with
other systems of Yoga. People can really feel what an
intelligent, well balanced and harmonious practice it
is. That is because it was developed into perfection
by Yogi Hari in over 40 years of practice and teaching.
New doors and teaching opportunities open up for me
all the time because of this.
My 18 year old brother took the course recently and
now he joined the Israeli army for his 3 years mandatory
service. The experience that he had in the Ashram helps
him to deal with the challenges that he is faced with
in a very positive way.
I truly believe that everybody in the world should participate
in the courses that are offered by Shri Yogi Hari. He is
already 64 years old and time goes by… Take advantage
of this incredible opportunity while it is still there!!!
