Nassau@sivananda.orgwww.sivananda.org/nassau/index.phpLove Alchemy: Learn to Love Yourself Happy and HealthyOur well-being, and the quality of our impact upon the world, have everything to do with what we habitually think about and care for. Our lives are shaped by what we concentrate on, and we tend to become what we love. Sometimes we get attached to people, ideas, and causes that are unworthy of us, and they seem to drag us down. At other times our love gets diluted by all the many things that require our care, and we find ourselves spread too thin.
In the practice of devotion for our Highest Ideals, we train ourselves to love in so intense and focused a manner that we are healed, uplifted, and energized to love more powerfully than even before. And this benefits us in every area of our lives--from our bodies, to our emotions, mental powers, and relationships.
We're going to explore how to create, deepen, and sustain a life-enhancing practice of devotion. We'll examine what naturally attracts us, and use what we learn about ourselves in exercises designed to inflame and channel our passions in the direction of our Ultimate Beloved. Kailash will guide us in chanting, visualization, and the use of sacred ritual that will give us energy and direction for our personal practice of worshipping the Supreme.

Dr. Kurt “Kailash” Bruder (Ph.D., M.Ed.) is communication scholar-teacher, trained psychotherapist, and sincere devotee. Unique among chant leaders and spiritual teachers for his penetrating insight into human motivation, interaction, and personal growth, Kailash is the author/recording artist of Following Sound into Silence: Chanting Your Way Beyond Ego into Bliss (2008, Hay House). Non-sectarian, intellectually satisfying, and exquisitely illustrated, this groundbreaking guide to devotional chanting is accompanied by a CD of 15 authentic mantras set to gorgeous music. This is the "one-stop resource" for chanters, "a beautifully designed and carefully written guide to Kirtan, Sound Yoga, and Mantra Practice" (David Newman/Durga Das). Steven Rosen, author of The Yoga of Kirtan, says that this book/CD "may be the standard work on this subject for years, if not centuries."
Please visit Kailash's website for
audio (scroll through the audio player content at the bottom of each page) and
video clips of demonstrating his performance as a chant leader and teacher. You might also appreciate the
testimonials offered by some of the leading figures in the devotional chanting movement, yoga, spirituality, and sound healing.

Enjoyed your YouTube video and completely understand your inspiring message.
In 1982 I began visiting a monastery where I experienced what a monk friend (turned spiritual advisor) called not a coincidence, but a 'spiritual phenomena.' The 'event' followed me for the next 33-months of visiting about every three months. My first three novels (The Franciscan Trilogy) was influenced by the experience.
Happy to be a literary friend.
