Downingtown Yoga Meditation Center Home of Svaroopa® Yoga, Meditation Training, Yoga Training, Yoga Therapy Training, Ongoing classes and workshops What is Svaroopa® yoga? www.downingtownyoga.org

Based on a significantly different paradigm in yoga poses, our practice is both physical and more than physical. We specialize in the inner opening, called "core opening," releasing the tensions in the deepest layers of your body – the layers of muscles wrapped around your spine. Downingtown Yoga & Meditation Center's hours vary, please see our website for specific hours and program details.

When you are based in your own Self, you see all the different things, all the different people like different blossoms on the one shrub. For there is only One, being all. And when you don’t see the One hidden in Her divine disguise, as the person sitting next to you, as the driver of the car turning into your lane, as the neighbor walking their dog... — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

The Gift of Grace

Welcome to our year-end fundraiser — themed “The Gift of Grace.” I hope you will join me in yoga’s practice of dakshina (selfless financial giving).

Consciousness has contracted to become us by concealing our inherent Divinity. This is our human condition. Yet we are also given the decoder ring, known as Grace.

Receiving this gift, we can know our own Self. We can uncover the Divinity that has always been within, being us. Gurudevi is fueled by the light of Consciousness and she wants us to be as well.

I remember a time in my life when I was going through a loss…

Support Equals Release

In almost every yoga class, I say, "Support equals release." It is a key principle of Svaroopa® yoga.

The support you receive in class takes many forms. The plaid blankets are the most obvious, and colorful! We fold and roll and stack and tuck blankets in wherever you need them most.

The props meet your body where tension is holding it back. When you lean into that support, your deep internal tensions let go. Support = release.

You've been carrying those tensions for so long. Sometimes you are so used to holding them, you don't even know you have them. Then you do a supported spinal-opening pose, and the tensions let go. It feels…

Get Familiar with Bliss

If you know that doing some yoga or repeating mantra for five minutes will make you happy, and it will, sometimes you simply won’t do it. It’s like you prefer being unhappy to being happy. Well, maybe it’s familiar. And I’d like to rescue you… — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Searching for Happiness

To search for happiness is like trying to drink water from a mirage. As you get closer and closer to what looks like a lake, it fades and disappears. And you’re still thirsty.

The same thing happens in relationships. You make a new friend, who seems to be on the same wavelength as you. After a while you find some discrepancies, some flaws, some imperfections – so do you stay in the relationship or not? And if they are a relative, now what?

Are you looking outside for your bliss or are you looking inside? If you look outward, your bliss will be temporary, impure and even cause pain. You are fueled by the delusion that the illusion will make you happy…

Illumined Action

💡🌞💖🕉

Sometimes you just know. In the midst of life, you know exactly what to do. Illumined action. Wouldn’t you like to live this way?

Yoga says you can. Tune in to your own inner light. Let your Divine Essence shine through your mind and heart.

To live this way, base yourself in your own Self, drawing from your inner depth and dimensionality in every moment. In every breath.

First, you delve inward to find your own Self. Then you…

Getting Enlightened

The wonderful thing about this yogic path is that you can stay in your home with your beloveds doing what you’ve already chosen to do and get enlightened while you’re there. Except it’s harder in some ways because you have your usual dance patterns, the way you interact with everyone in your life. And they want you to keep being the same old... — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Krishna Avatar Part 63

Bhagavadgita Chapter 15: The Supreme Spirit

Krishna unveils the cosmic vision of existence through the metaphor of the eternal Ashvattha tree, the tree of samsara, showing the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. He says, “The wise speak of an indestructible Ashvattha (peepul or fig) tree with its roots above and branches below. Its leaves are…”

Bhagavadgita Chapter 16: The Divine and the Demoniacal

There are two fundamental forces at play within every individual: divine and demoniacal. Here, Krishna provides a clear roadmap to discern the qualities that lead to liberation and those that result in bondage…
