Keeping Up. Redefining What Has Value

Change happens organically in one’s life. Yet sometimes a quiet question arises: Can I keep up with modern times? Keep up with the latest iPhone.Keep up with progress at work.And beneath it all — Do I still have value if I cannot keep up? Success is so often defined by occupation. Value is measured by possessions, productivity, and visibility — rarely by the peace or happiness sacrificed to attain them....

About Satsang ✨
Sat means truth in Sanskrit, and sanga means to come together. Satsang is our weekly gathering to discuss spiritual truths, based on Divinity, the Self and how to integrate greater conscious values into one’s everyday life.

Every Thursday at 6:45 p.m. we will have an open discussion on the philosophy of yoga, combining Sanskrit mantra recitation with ancient scriptural teachings. Allow the wisdom of the yogis and sages from the past to come alive and be made accessible to you, the urban seeker, explorer and practitioner. 🌇

TIME

Time is always moving. I observe myself moving through time. “Passing time” is a common phrase, yet in truth, time is moving through me—and I have no control over it. Krishna says in the Gita, “Time I am, the destroyer of everything.” I cannot hold on to the moments of joy woven into time, captured only in memory. The mind has the power to slip into the past or construct a so-called future—yet neither is reality....

You may have heard the invitation to explore the quest within the question during one of our yoga classes Who are you? Who are you not? 💕🙏

A few words expressing our mission & wider commitment below ⬇

Our Mission : ✨🌟
Bhakti Yoga DC serves to empower individuals with conscious lifestyle practices that transform mind, body and heart. We provide our students an empowering spiritual experience and holistic health care/coaching through dynamic healing yoga, mantra, meditation, kirtan and philosophy delivered within an authentic spiritual community that serves to build deep and loving relationships.

Our Wider Commitment: 🌍
Bhakti Yoga DC is committed to creating a space rooted in dignity, inclusion, and reverence—for our students, our neighbors, and the sacred lineages of yoga itself.
Our building once served as a homeless women’s shelter, and we continue that legacy of service by working closely with individuals experiencing housing insecurity in our local community.

We also recognize that we teach and gather on the ancestral lands of the Nacotchtank (Anacostan) and Piscataway peoples, and that this city is shaped by histories of displacement and forced labor. Rather than offering a decontextualized or commodified version of yoga, we aim to honor its cultural origins and share it in a spirit of devotion and integrity.

A Cry for Love or Act of Love

Learning to sit with pain—whether physical or emotional—is a profound challenge. Emotional pain can be especially difficult to endure because, unlike physical pain, it’s easier to try and escape from it. Today, I sat by the dining room window, hoping the clouds would part and let the sun stream in. I long for the external brightness to lift my spirits, just as I hope the inner cloud of depression will clear, offering me insight and hope....
