- The Ascension Process - a mini-workshop
The Hathors remind us that “any movement upward in consciousness and movement of life force (prana) up the djed (the spinal cord representing the sacred pathway of the chakras), regardless of the method used, is part of the ascension process”. The idea is to energize our KA (Kanda, Earth Brain or also known as our Second Body) and its elevation in vibration so that it emits more light! With more light we will reveal our Higher Truth and the latter is our capacity to change our reality.
- Dr Ananda's visit to SA in 2010
Dr Ananda Balayogi Bhavanani, the son of the world-famous Dr Swami Gitananda, visited the Anjali School of Yoga in April 2010 … a blessing in many ways.
Someone said: “It was heartwarming just to be in his presence” and another observed that “his wisdom exceeds his age”. Although he did not teach us any new asanas, he nevertheless gave us a deeper understanding of the work we are already doing and practicing. For one student this meant the “light bulbs of understanding keep popping on”.
We were reminded of Patanjali’s teachings that the root of all our problems is to be ignorant of who I AM. This ignorance causes duality and separation and leads to disease. “He emphasised that balance in every facet on all planes is the key to what we aim for in Yoga”. The most important aspect is AWARENESS – without it, there is NO Yoga … “where the mind goes, there the prana flows”, he often stated.
We further experienced the unusual combination of ancient Rishi teachings, yoga and modern medicine. The retreat attended by 32 students was, as one person summarized it for all of us, “profoundly inspirational, blissful, and yet, indescribable”. Our yogic cup runneth over. - AS IT IS IN HEAVEN ...

“When we are shallow breathers, special nerve receptors buried deep in the lungs remain dormant. Only when we deeply breathe in and out, are these inspiratory receptors and expiratory receptors called into activity. That activity is a reflexo-genic feed-back from the lungs to a special breathing centre, the respiratory centre within the brain. This respiratory centre governs not only our in and out breath, but our ability to hold in and hold out the breath. To gain control over this centre is a conscious art of Pranayama Yoga” and in the latter “the whole breathing function is taken over by the higher brain which is used by the conscious mind. Thus practice of Pranayama becomes an important step in consciously ‘evolving’ ourselves or ‘growing spiritually’”.

TERRA PAPER'S WORKSHOP
Planet Earth's history, according to a Star Being
On 13 August 1947 a disk crashed. Six young Indian men arrived at the site to make a startling discovery ... there has been a survivor!!! Nursing him back to health, the Star Being explained that there was a war in the skies above and his ship had been downed. This being, called Bek'Ti, presented to these men the history of MAN and EARTH as known by the star beings.
The information is both exciting and challenging!!! It tends to shift paradigms …. Big time!
The creation of man and his place in the galaxy is made clear. The Grey's presence on Earth is explained, as well as the sources of Man's religions and the origins of legendary mythological figures are interpreted against the framework of the history of Planet Earth.
[The story of Bek'Ti, a Star Being, according to the Terra Papers by Robert Morning Sky]
Date: Sunday, 6 November 2011
Time: 9H00 – 14H00
Place:Anjali School of Yoga

11:11:11 (11 November 2011)
We did it on 10:10:10 (10 October 2010), we are going to do it on 11:11:11 (11 November 2011) and we will do it again on 12:12:12 (12 December 2012).
These are moments NOT TO BE MISSED (so diarize this date NOW).
On 10:10:10 the Earth passed through the first of three Stargates that will bring profound shifts and changes to Humanity and the Earth. The next one will be 11:11:11, whilst the last, the completion of these three Stargates, will be 12:12:12 and then the Earth will enter into the Golden Age of Light and peace and Humanity will stand ready to be a part of this Great Shift – indeed a NEW EARTH.
The ANJALI School of Yoga is committed to be open for 11 hours on Friday the 11th of November 2011 in order to make sacred/quiet space available for every one to use, to participate in, to enjoy and to be transformed.
