Led by teacher Shri.Thillai, the session encompassed guided practice of Ananda Chaitanya practices, including Stillness meditation, Yogic exercises, Pranayama, Yoga nidra and Chaitanya meditation.
The gathering also featured a discussion on life after the Ananda Chaitanya program. Meditators, ranging from a few months to several years of experience, shared insights into their journey, addressing both successes and hurdles in integrating the life tools and practices into daily life.
In response to questions, the teacher provided valuable guidance on sustaining these tools and practices, delving into the nature of the mind and its vrittis. Concepts such as thoughts, emotions, sensations, and the aspect of the mind known as Ahamkar were explored. Additionally, an introduction to chakras and Kundalini added depth to the understanding of inner experiences.
The session culminated in a five-stage guided meditation that includes Chakra suddhi, Aumkhar Chant, Nadisanchalana, Third eye Focus etc offering participants a profound glimpse into the discussed aspects.
