The Upanishads
Offered this September.
This course can be taken either In Studio or at home Livestreaming.
The earliest philosophical roots of yoga are found in the texts of the classical Upanishads. The Upanishads offer a vision of an interconnected universe with a single, unifying principle behind the apparent diversity found in the cosmos. This is called “Brahman”. “Brahman” is “Pure Consciousness”. Realizing this is the ultimate goal of Classical Yoga. If you are curious about the philosophy of yoga, then take a journey to its source.
