It provides the tools for how one can apply the components of a Yogic Lifestyle according to Satyananda Yoga into one’s daily life to keep the body and mind healthy\, restore balance and ensure a positive\, optimistic\, creative attitude and spiritual way of living\, which once learnt in the ashram\, can be practised at home. \nThe program includes practical classes\,  lectures\, interactive workshops\,  mantra chanting\, pooja and Havan\, morning yoga sessions\, karma yoga\, meditation\, yoga nidra of the Satyananda System of Yoga\, evening programs [rich and varied]\, Saturday Mahamritunjaya mantra chanting with havan\, shatkarmas [cleansing techniques of Hatha Yoga] on Wednesdays\, Saturdays & Sundays. \nN.B. Guru Bhakti Yoga is on the 4th-6th of every month. \nSatyanandashram Hellas has been organizing Yogic Lifestyle Experience courses for over fifteen years\, based on the purpose that yoga should move out of the classrooms and become a daily living experience\, a lifestyle that develops and transforms one’s personality through awakening one’s innate dormant potential\, creativity\, and self-awareness. \nAshram Life Experience \nThis program offers the individual visitor the opportunity to experience ashram life first-hand. \nThe emphasis of Ashram Life is on service (seva yoga). Through the practice of seva yoga we discover the deep facets of our personality and learn how to deal with ourselves\, other people\, and different situations whilst simultaneously being active and efficient in life.\nIn the ashram\, one learns to live yoga from moment to moment and yoga becomes a 24-hour living experience and a lifestyle. \nDays in the ashram vary according to the season.  A typical day in the ashram could include the following: \nMorning yoga sessions\, karma Yoga\, meditation\, yoga nidra of the Satyananda System of Yoga\, evening programs [rich and varied]\, Saturday Mahamritunjaya mantra chanting with havan\, shatkarmas [cleansing techniques of Hatha Yoga] on Wed\, Sat & Sun.\nN.B. Guru Bhakti Yoga is on the 4th-6th of every month \nWhether one opts for an Ashram Life experience or a Yogic Lifestyle Experience course\, much is to be gained.

SUMMARY:The Pancha Tattwam -The 5 Great Elements
DESCRIPTION:Online program \nLanguage: Greek & English \nAccording to Vedic science\, there are five elements which form the basis of all cosmic creation (manifest and non-manifest) known as the pancha tattwam: ether or space (akasha)\, gases or air(vayu)\, light or fire(agni)\, liquid or water(apas) and solids or earth (prithvi). They are the basic elements present everywhere in nature\, from a single cell to the ever-expanding universe\, and are associated with the overall health of the human being. The organs and cells of the body\, the quality of thoughts\, feelings and actions are all influenced by the five tattwas. According to Ayurveda\, any disorder in the human body indicates an imbalance of one or more of these elements whereas when balanced they release subtle positive essences creating optimum health in both the body and the mind.  It is essential that these five elements exist in harmony\, both within and outside the body\, which means that our environment also needs to be peaceful\, clean and wholesome. \nThe Pancha Tattwam and improving the environment \nToday our earth is confronting major challenges due to the environmental pollution created by the human race which are triggered by greed and ignorance. Pesticides\, intensive farming and deforestation are ruining the soil\, overconsumption\, plastic waste and harmful chemicals are contaminating the water and the air while arson ravages the forests. An alarming number of satellites are surrounding Earth affecting life on the planet as well as contributing to the growing problem of space pollution. The purification of the outer environment\, therefore\, must go hand in hand with the purification of the inner environment of our own bodies so a point is reached where the inner and outer worlds reflect one another. As consciousness expands\, there is a growing number of people and organisations worldwide sincerely striving to return the balance of Prakriti (nature) and restore harmony to nature. \nOne of Sri Swami Satyananda’s legacies was to devise methods and practices where humans can purify their body and mind through yogic practices such as the purification of the panchatattwas as well as simultaneously purifying their environment through\, yajna\, havan and poojas and thus\, be able to better live in harmony with one another and the world around them. This is yoga ecology. \nSatsang at Rikhiapeeth \nRajasooya Yajna and Sat Chandi Mahayajna\, 2007\, Swami Satyananda Saraswati \nAbout 1\,700\,000 years ago\, the Ice Age prevailed on Earth. After that\, global warming started. Global warming is not a phenomenon of today; it is just that you are only becoming aware of it now. Global warming started several thousand years ago. It was due to global warming that Dwarika submerged. In the future something else will be submerged; the Ice Age will come again\, and it will be followed by the emergence of something else. Then you will realize how these things happen. Therefore\, do not look at everything from the perspective you have today\, but from a scientific point of view…….The modern concept of environmental science lacks coherent scientific thinking. We have to go scientifically\, not emotionally and not for political reasons. \n– Swami Satyananda Saraswati \n  \nThere is a contribution to the program. \nPart of the proceeds is offered\, on an annual basis\, to MAKE-A-WISH (Make-A-Wish Greece).

SUMMARY:Celebration: Welcoming 2024 Satsang & Swami Niranjanananda Initiation Day
DESCRIPTION:Language: Greek & English \nOnline program via Zoom \nBefore stepping into 2024\, let us look back at the year which has passed\, and reflect on all the goodness life has brought our way\, which we may have overlooked or perhaps taken for granted. By cultivating a positive spirit\, each and every moment becomes a lesson\, each and every challenge (both pleasant and unpleasant) can be seen as a stepping stone on our evolutionary journey. \nLook back\, observe and acknowledge this and\, and feel grateful. \nA truly creative person is one who takes on the many challenges of life with spontaneity and positivity\, flowing with the current and allowing the wisdom to arise from within. \n– Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati \nIt is also the time to make a sankalpa\, (a resolution)\, for the coming year\, and with a bit of luck keep it! It is the time to contemplate on which goals need to be achieved: physical\, mental\, emotional and spiritual. \nCultivating a positive attitude enhances all aspects of life. The fruits of these efforts are felt as one becomes more comfortable and happier with oneself. Taking a positive stance brings optimism in life\, and makes it easier to avoid worries and negative thought patterns. Positivity gives one strength to handle the obstacles in life by focusing on what can be learnt from them rather than complaining about them and enables one to see the good in others rather than focusing on the negative. \nLet us be able to say: \nDear past\, thank you for the lessons. \nDear future\, I am ready. \nAs part of the New Year’s celebrations\, Swami Sivamurti Saraswati will give the first Satsang for the new year as well as pay tribute to Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati\, the spiritual successor of Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati and guru of our tradition. Glimpses into Swami Niranjananda’s  life and teachings will be presented as well as honouring the day he was initiated into sannyasa and the dedication he made to serve humanity\, following the example of his beloved Guru Sri Swami Satyananda. \nThe program also includes: \n\nMeditation\nHavan\nPooja\nCutting of the Vasilopita (New Year’s traditional cake).\n\nPart of the proceeds is offered\, on an annual basis\, to MAKE-A-WISH (Make-A-Wish Greece). \nThere is contribution for the program.

SUMMARY:Christmas Eve Satsang & Sri Swami Satyananda's Birthday Eve
DESCRIPTION:Language: Greek & English \nOnline program via Zoom \nChristmas provides the opportunity to enter more deeply into the joyful mystery that lies at its heart: God becoming a human in the body of Jesus the Christ. It is a time of renewed hope\, a time to celebrate life\, an opportunity to spread joy and happiness\, share\, uplift and lend a helping hand wherever the opportunity arises. \nChrist came down in the physical body. He was not a myth\, not a metaphor\, not an allegory\, not a symbol\, not a replica. He was a man in flesh and blood\, as you are. Yes! But he means much more to us. Even though he did not live in this physical body\, he lives in our hearts. Wherever and whenever you can awaken yourself\, he is there in your heart. When you think about him\, it is not imagination or an hallucination. He is there\, but you don’t know it. \n– Swami Satyananda Saraswati \nhttp://www.yogamag.net/archives/2000s/2000/0003/0003incm.html \nOn Christmas Eve\, two birthdays will be celebrated at the ashram: the birth of Jesus and Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati’s. \nSwami Sivamurti will give a Satsang together with other festive activities online. This is an opportunity to join in together\, wherever one may be\, and rejoice in the true spirit of Christmas. \nThe program also includes: \n– Meditation\n– Chanting\n– Havan & Pooja\n– Christmas Songs and Carols \nAnd more surprises to come….\nMay the beauty and warmth of Christmas be with you! \nThere is a contribution for the program. \nPart of the proceeds is offered\, on an annual basis\, to MAKE-A-WISH (Make-A-Wish Greece).

SUMMARY:Sri Swami Satyananda: Lessons of Life
DESCRIPTION:December theme: Emotional Balance \nIn commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati\, Satyanandashram Hellas has been hosting an array of celebrations throughout 2023\, in tribute to this great visionary who touched and transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. \nOne of the many events includes an inspiring twelve-part series\, titled: Sri Swami Satyananda: Lessons of Life. These programs are dedicated to the life and teachings of Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati. \nThroughout his life\, Sri Swami Satyananda devoted himself to fulfilling his beloved guru’s mandate given to him by Sri Swami Sivananda to “spread yoga from door to door and shore to shore”. He accomplished this by travelling the four corners of the earth spreading the vidya (knowledge) of yoga and providing support\, relief and solace to all in need. \nIn later years\, he settled near the village of Rikhia\, where he received a divine mandate that guided him to embark on serving and improving the living conditions of the impoverished and destitute tribal people who lived in the thousands of villages in the surrounding area. This is where the formation of Rikhiapeeth came into existence; an ashram where the three primary teachings of Sri Swami Sivananda – Serve\, Love\, Give – were to be practiced. \nSri Swami Satyananda’s entire life was spent serving his guru and uplifting humanity. He inspired the creation of three significant institutions which form parts of a greater vision and purpose of Satyananda Yoga\, and which reflect his guru’s teachings; to align the head\, heart and hands so that they complement each other and enhance one’s expression in life. He established Yoga Peeth which reflects the Head (mind)\, Rikhia Peeth which expresses the Heart (emotions) and Sannyasa Peeth which represents the Hands (creativity). This is known as the expressive yoga taught to him by his guru\, where yoga becomes an attitude and a lifestyle enabling one to express greater creativity and move towards making a real difference in the world in which one lives. \nAll are welcome to take part in this very special series of programs to honour Sri Swami Satyananda and his great legacy to humankind. Each series is unique and focuses on one special aspect of his teachings that is especially applicable to the world we live in today. \n“Sri Swamiji’s life is an example to us all\, it is a moving panorama of success through struggle\, of noble attainment through selfless effort\, of never complaining\, never giving up\, of bhava\, devotion\, faith and purity of heart. His very being was love. His service was love. And that love and service endeared him to one and all. Just remembering Sri Swamiji with love and devotion is yoga. It is pure\, unconditional love” \n– Swami Sivamurti Saraswati \nSri Swami Satyananda: Lessons of Life \n\nSunday 3 September (live 18.00 – 19.30)\nThursday 19 October  (live – 16.00-17.45)\nSaturday 25 November  (online – 17.00-19.00)\nSaturday 2 December (live – 15.00-17.00)\n\nThere is a contribution to the program. \nPart of the proceeds is offered\, on an annual basis\, to MAKE-A-WISH (Make-A-Wish Greece).

SUMMARY:Yogic Tools for Total Health
DESCRIPTION:Dates:\n\nSunday 22 January 2023\nSunday 5 March 2023\nSunday 2 April 2023\n\nOnline program \nLanguages: English and Greek\n\n\nFour sessions of 2.30 hours each module. \nAfter the inspiring seminars on “Wisdom of the Chakras”\, a new series follows titled Yogic Tools for Total Health. \nThe science of yoga has always been dedicated to the physical\, mental\, and spiritual health of mankind. Since the advent of the current technological age\, many great thinkers have begun to suspect that mankind is entering into another dimension of disease and suffering\, one which belongs not so much to the physical body as to the mental and psychic bodies… most people have lost the capacity to understand\, analyse or think about themselves\, their minds and their inner problems. The focus of their attention has become completely materialistic. The structure of society and man’s day-to-day life has compelled him to think more about what is happening outside rather than what is happening within him. So\, in the course of time\, he has come to neglect the fundamental rules and signs of physical and mental health. \n– Swami Satyananda Saraswati \n  \nThe generally accepted definition of health\, given by WHO\, is that health is a state of complete physical\, mental\, and social well-being\, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. That may well be\, but real health requires not only that we look to keeping the body and the mind healthy\, but that we also look to the spirit. As Sri Swami Satyananda has said\, “In order to gain total health\, it is necessary for the spiritual life to become the base of our ordinary life.” \nThe ancient Greeks\, as did the ancient yogis\, took a similar view to total health. Hygieia the goddess of health and hygiene\, and the daughter of Asclepius\, the god of medicine\, was worshipped by the Greeks\, and later the Romans\, in many temples and sanctuaries. Although originally\, she was the goddess of physical health and the prevention of sickness\, Hygieia was also worshipped as the protectress of mental health. So important was this goddess that she is referred to in the Hippocratic oath and an orphic hymn was dedicated to her. \nFor maintaining total health\, real health\, we need not only to care for our physical body but supplement this care with right thinking\, philosophy and psychology\, principles and beliefs. The art of dhyana yoga also needs to be developed. This is when the mind expands and becomes more and more aware of the beauty and intelligence within and the infinite dimensions of beauty and intelligence around us. \nNever in history have we been subjected to so many terrible diseases\, and new viruses. Is there a way still to achieve the best possible health? Yoga is the answer. \nNumerous studies show yoga’s benefits in all psychosomatic diseases\, arthritis\, osteopenia\, oncology\, women’s health\, chronic pain relief\, improves strength\, balance\, and flexibility. Yoga benefits heart health\, relaxes you\, and helps you sleep better. Yoga gives more energy and promotes positive states of mind. Yoga helps you manage stress and promotes better self-care through maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle\, positive attitudes\, and emotions\, and developing a positive relationship with the environment. \nThe first module on Health starts on the 4th December\, where we shall begin to look into some of the yogic tools available to keep us healthy on physical\, mental and emotional levels.

SUMMARY:Christmas Eve Satsang & Sri Swami Satyananda's Birthday Eve
DESCRIPTION:Language: Greek & English \nLive at Satyanandashram Hellas and Online through Zoom. \nChristmas provides the opportunity to enter more deeply into the joyful mystery that lies at its heart: God becoming a human in the body of Jesus the Christ. It is a time of renewed hope\, a time to celebrate life\, an opportunity to spread joy and happiness\, share\, uplift and lend a helping hand wherever the opportunity arises. \nChrist came down in the physical body. He was not a myth\, not a metaphor\, not an allegory\, not a symbol\, not a replica. He was a man in flesh and blood\, as you are. Yes! But he means much more to us. Even though he did not live in this physical body\, he lives in our hearts. Wherever and whenever you can awaken yourself\, he is there in your heart. When you think about him\, it is not imagination or an hallucination. He is there\, but you don’t know it. \n– Swami Satyananda Saraswati \nhttp://www.yogamag.net/archives/2000s/2000/0003/0003incm.html \nOn Christmas Eve\, two birthdays will be celebrated at the ashram: the birth of Jesus and Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati’s. \nSwami Sivamurti will give a Satsang together with other festive activities online. This is an opportunity to come together\, wherever one may be\, and rejoice in the true spirit of Christmas. \nThe program also includes: \n– Meditation\n– Chanting\n– Havan & Pooja\n– Christmas Songs and Carols \nAnd more surprises to come….\nMay the beauty and warmth of Christmas be with you! \nThere is a contribution for the program.

SUMMARY:Seminar with Swami Sivamurti Saraswati - Sannyasa in Modern Life
DESCRIPTION:Online program\n\nOrganizer: Bulgarian Yoga Association\n\nTraditionally\, sannyasa was given to members from a certain caste and it meant absolute separation of the individual from society; but very few could live this way. Over the centuries\, it was modified enabling more people to follow the lifestyle and discipline of sannyasa. Sri Swami Sivananda and Sri Swami Satyananda broke with tradition by initiating females and foreigners into sannyasa. \nIn this seminar\, Swami Sivamurti Saraswati will elucidate the qualities of Sannyasa and how to follow this way of life in modern times. \nThere is a beautiful statement in the Bhagavad Gita which says: ‘Sannyasa equals investing the karmas’. Nobody has picked up this sentence. When asked to define sannyasa\, people open up the scriptures and find long sentences and paragraphs describing it\, but nobody says that sannyasa means investment of karmas. In the context in which Krishna was speaking to Arjuna\, karma combines jnana\, wisdom\, and bhakti\, devotion\, surrender\, or awareness of a higher reality. So sannyasa is actually a way of living in universal harmony by investing your karmas for the growth and development of your individual being and of the global community. \n– Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati \nhttp://www.yogamag.net/archives/1990s/1996/9607/96072gen.html

SUMMARY:AAGAMAN –  The First Steps
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Duration: 3 hours \nAagaman is the anniversary of the time when Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati first set foot in the ashram of Paiania. \nDates: Sunday 26 June 2022 – 18.00 – 21.00 \nPlace: ONLINE \nLanguage: Greek and English \nDuration: 3 hours \nAagaman is the anniversary of the time when Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati first set foot in the ashram of Paiania. \nThis is one of those occasions when I have come to open or inaugurate this ashram and this ashram is called “True Bliss Ashram”. This is also very important for all of us to understand. The pleasures that are fleeting and temporary are not the truth. The happiness which you get from the world is relative\, it is dependent on your friends\, on money and other things\, but there is a permanent state of experience called ananda. Ananda is not felicity or ordinary happiness; it is a permanent state of experience which does not change at all (excerpt taken from Sri Swamiji’s inauguration speech from 1985 of Satyanandashram). \nSwami Satyananda Saraswati \nSri Swami Satyananda spread the science of yoga from door to door and from shore to shore fulfilling the mandate of his guru Sri Swami Sivananda Saraswati\, and established yoga as a lifestyle to bring harmony\, peace and joy into one’s life. \nThere is a contribution for the program. \nDonate \nParticipate[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_id=”participation-form” css=”.vc_custom_1655276720613{padding-top: 200px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner]\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Name*\n \n \n Email *\n \n \n Message\n \n \n\n \n\n\n[/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
