“Yoga, Vedic Astrology and Ayurveda are not science, they are science, art and magic.” Hart deFouw

All great civilisations centred their cultures on profound systems of spiritual development and enlightenment. Health and healing has been a primary focus of living beings since the beginning of times. Queens and Kings, yogis and gurus have used, and are using systems of astrology which connect conditions and experiences with events on Earth influenced by astrological occurrences. India has offered the world access to knowledge that allows one to gain wisdom about the essence and purpose of life understood as a web of threads which are deeply interconnected. The teachings and knowledge of these holistic sciences was gained by the rishis and sages of ancient India, knowledge that was received through deep meditative states over 5000 years ago.

Friday 24^th November: Vedic Astrology

Learn about how the luminaries and planets in the sky, have been used for millennia, and are still used today as a primary tool for mapping the ebb and flow of karma and the movement of time. Jyotisha is translated as “The Knowledge of Light” as the sacred science and art of illuminating karmic patterns and tendencies. It is a living tradition of divination passed on from teacher to student orally, with a huge history of over 5000 years. It shines Light over our Karma, and in this talk the concept of Karma will be explored in depth.

Friday 1^st December: Ayurveda

Ayurveda is the holistic system of Healing and Prevention of disease of India. Our body is the means through which we experience life, and Ayurveda teaches us how to take care of our body, mind and heart, while recognising that all bodies are unique. The way we interact and engage with our environment, be it our body or the outer world, will determine our state of health and well-being. Ayurveda wants us to have a long, healthy and happy life so that we can walk on the path of spiritual development with ease, without being dragged back by ill-health of the body and mind, and it teaches us about our unique constitution – the way we are built- which will influence the way we engage with life. In this talk the concept of Dharma will be explored in depth.

Friday 8^th December: Yoga and Sādhanā

Gabriela will talk about Yoga as path for spiritual transformation through knowledge, reflection, action and devotion that leads to self-discovery. Yoga is at its core a process and journey of discovering the Self.  Jyotisha offers us knowledge of our tendencies and patterns and it used for timing moments of opportunity or down-fall. Ayurveda offers us the knowledge of how to keep our bodies healthy and full of vitality so that we can walk on the path of spiritual development through Yoga as Sādhanā so we can flow easily and gently through life, learning how to move with the currents that surround us.
