Description
Dr. Jayadeva and Hansaji, following in Founder's footsteps, travelled to Britain and then to North America, just as Founder did in 1919. In their one and a half month tour of Britain, Canada, USA, and Germany they conducted lectures, workshops and seminars that were organized by their students.
Their visit inspired further learning, a reaffirming of commitment and a feeling of care and openness, as Dr. Jayadeva and Hansaji spoke so fully on how Yoga can be of benefit to our lives and that of society. They introduced a new concept that put a more personal perspective on their teachings. They called it the "Yoga of Caring".
They emphasized that an attitude of caring while performing our practices, doing our duties and having recreational time, would allow a greater balance and more positive states of mind. It was a reminder to function with more "heart", more positive feelings, more dedication and commitment.
COMMENT:
This compilation of their talks is dedicated to all those who continue to take up this challenge.
