Lunar Flow Yoga with Yasmin

Much more than a mid-day yoga class, this is a spiritual practice, an exploration of the waxing and waning cycles in our lives as shown to us in the cycles of the moon. It is a group meditation, a flowing of a series of postures and mudras that help us to stay connected to our calm centers. If you have thought of coming, do. We'd love to share this beautiful time with you.

Sitting Meditation with John Terlazzo

Sitting Meditation 

with John Terlazzo

Thursdays, 1/22 thru 2/12/15 at Radiance
1:30 - 3pm

People in the West often talk about the health benefits of Sitting Meditation – balanced blood pressure, an improved immune system, better digestion, a calmer demeanor, more restful sleep & so on. This is all good – but these are not the reasons why we “Sit”. Rather they are coincidental side effects of an ancient practice that is far deeper than mere physical & mental health improvements.

Sitting Meditation brings us into a daily, still intimacy with our True Nature - with God, Truth, the Essence – not someone’s “idea” or “concept” of these, but with That which is beyond all structures, concepts & dogmas.

Classes will be held at Radiance, 9 W Grant St., across the cobblestones from Lancaster’s Central Market, in the heart of downtown Lancaster.  To register, stop in or phone Radiance at 717-290-1517.

Cost is on a sliding scale of $55-40 for the series, or $15-12 per class.

All serious, committed persons – regardless of philosophy, religion, creed or absence thereof – are welcome.  Bring a meditation cushion if you have one.  Chairs are available for those who require them.
    

John Terlazzo is a poet / painter/ singer-songwriter and storyteller who has been practicing Sitting Meditation since his initiation in 1972.  John says, “I have been practicing daily Sitting Meditation for 42 years now, a deep work with the breath. I don't pretend to be anyone’s guru or great teacher, but - after consistently doing this work for this long, I can be helpful in assisting those who sincerely wish to pursue the practice.”

                                                                                                                           

Is it Mooshka?? Or Mooshka's Cousin?

You might remember that a few years ago, a stone mouse appeared at Radiance.  We were reminded of the mouse companion of Ganesh, the elephant-headed god from the Hindu tradition.  So we named the stone mouse Mooshka.  We said "good morning" and "good night" to Mooshka.  Then after a couple of years, Mooshka disappeared as silently as he had appeared in the first place.  We missed him...

This week... another mouse appeared!  Looking very similar to Mooshka, although this new mouse is brown & Mooshka was gray.  So, we are thrilled, and wondering what the story is...
