Our motto is:
Master Your Unit

To Master Your Unit means to become a fully functioning Hu-Man Being, which means a being of divine or infinite mind; master of both the physical, ordinary world and the world of Spirit. To Master Your Unit is to demystify both realms of existence. Training takes you to the place where you have the tools to complete your life’s purpose, which is the place where you no longer are in conflict. You experience yourself as an energetic being rather than something solid and fixed. You have established a profound relationship with energy and you are moving with the flow of energy. This training can be completed through weekly meetings or by correspondence.

If you will apply what is given in this course day after day, week after week, year after year, and root out of your life everything that goes against harmony and clarity, you will discover that your life will start to work right. You will discover that you will start to work right, because you will have begun to live in accordance with the laws of this physical universe rather than against them, and you will have the life energy of this universe backing you in every endeavor you undertake. Whether you want to excel in your profession, improve your relationships or attain enlightenment, the YAR Training will show you how to build the energy, concentration, integrity, sensitivity and awareness necessary to achieve what you want in life in a way that is harmonious with all life. A person who can function with accuracy and consistency in the mundane aspects of ordinary life and who can witness his/her own mind will have the power and clarity of mind to create something extraordinary.

The principles and practices of the YAR Training are simple, obvious and beautiful in their results. Rarely will you meet a person who lives them. When you do, you will notice the difference. When you start to live them, you will experience the difference. By paying attention to the small, physical details of life and the state of your own mind, you can learn to focus your energy with mastery and make your life into a work of art.

Unraveling The Conditioned Self pt. II / October 5, 2013 – Sun & Moon Yoga Studio, Meguro

Buddha

Unraveling The Conditioned Self: Being Karma-Free Pt II

A Workshop with Miles Maeda at Sun and Moon Yoga Studio, Meguro
Saturday October 5th, 5:00-7:30 pm
3,500 yen

From the view of yoga, we live in a unified field of creation but experience it through filters of duality. We see ‘this and that’, ‘good and bad’, ‘you and me’. This causes us to attach to desirable circumstances and avoid the undesirable. This is the basic cause of our suffering. It’s what keeps us wanting what we don’t have and fearing that we’ll loose what we have acquired.

Karma means action. In yogic philosophy, it is believed that negative actions cause negative experiences, positive actions cause positive experiences. So the first step in reducing our suffering is to discontinue our negative actions, speech and thinking. By understanding negative emotions, we can apply the antidote and create positive actions with positive results. When this becomes stable through practice, then one can free themselves from karma completely by letting one’s emotions self-liberate.

In part II of the Karma-Free lecture series we will further explore what is karma and the teachings/tools which help us become free of its entrapments. We will learn prostrations which help prepare our body/speech/mind to practice, a meditation for processing our past karmic tensions, plus simple guidelines (including the Six Realms of Cyclic Existence) to cultivate more positive experiences which will lead toward the possibility of karma-free actions.

Every action, every experience has a result. When we see clearly this big picture, we can use this understanding to change our lives and manifest our dreams.

条件付けられた自己を解放する:カルマ・フリーに生きる方法 パート2

マイルズ・マエダによるワークショップ
サンアンドムーン ヨガ 目黒
10月5日(土)17:00−19:30 3,500円

ヨガ的な考え方によれば、私たちは調和した世界に生きながら、二元的なフィルターを通して様々な経験をするのだといいます。「これとあれ」「良いものと悪いもの」「私とあなた」といったものの見方は、私たちを好ましいものに向かわせ、そうでないものを避けるようにしむけます。これこそが苦しみの原因です。これによって人は、持っていないものを欲しがり、手に入れたものを失う事を恐れるようになるのです。

カルマは「行い」という意味です。ヨガ哲学では、否定的な行いが否定的な経験としてあらわれ、前向きな行動は前向きな経験を生むと考えます。ですから、私たちの苦しみを減らすための第一歩は、否定的な行いをやめ、否定的な言葉と思考を控える事にあります。否定的な感情について理解する事で、私たちは対策を講じ、前向きな行動で前向きな結果を得る事ができるでしょう。練習によってこれが当たり前の事になれば、私たちは感情から自然に解き放たれ、カルマから自由になる事ができるのです。

今回第2弾となるカルマ・フリーの講義では、カルマとは何かという事についてさらに学びを深め、その罠から自由になるための教えや手法を見てゆきます。練習の前に、体・言葉・心を整えるための五体投地、過去のカルマ的な緊張を処理するための瞑想、カルマにとらわれない行いに通じる前向きな経験を培うためのガイドライン(輪廻を繰り返す存在が棲む6つの領域についての教えなど)について学びましょう。

全ての行い、全ての経験には結果が伴います。こうした物事の大局を捉える事ができるならば、私たちは人生を変える事にそれを役立て、夢を実現する事ができるようになるのです。

Integration Yoga Workshop / September 14, 2013 – UTL Yoga School, Yoyogi

Body Chakras Nadis

Integration Yoga Workshop – the science of the nadis, bandhas and chakras

Saturday, September 14
9:00-11:00
@ Under The Light Yoga School, Yoyogi

Yoga for many begins with the practice of asana, synchronizing the movements of the body with the flow of the breath. The definition of Yoga, according to Patanjali, is the cessation of the waves of the mind. So in order to bridge the one with the other, it is vital to integrate the dynamics of our subtle anatomy: the nadis (channels), bandhas (locks) and chakras (energy centers).

Hatha Yoga is the merging of opposites, the union of the male and female energies within us. This unification happens in the subtle anatomy, which is supported by our physical structure and activity. If one practices any of the Hatha Yogas (Ashtanga, Iyengar, Anusara, Bikram, etc.), the opportunity to deepen one’s practice is to cultivate the subtle energies within. We open and clear the channels, utilize the bandhas to guide and direct energy to flow freely up and through the various chakras, ultimately resulting in the stilling of the waves of the mind.

In this workshop, we will explore exercises to gain awareness of our subtle anatomy. We will do pranayama to strengthen the bandhas as well as learn a powerful mantra to clear and energize the chakras. Finally, we will do a yoga set designed to integrate subtle awareness with a physical asana practice. The practice of yoga opens many doors. And if it’s time to go deeper, the tools to help you do the work are right there inside of us.

 

ナーディ、バンダとチャクラの科学

このワークショップでは、微細な組織に注意深く意識を向けてゆくためのエクササイズを探求します。バンダを強化するプラナヤマとチャクラをクリアにして活力を与える力強いマントラを学び、最後に微細な意識と身体を使ったアサナの練習とを結びつけるアサナの練習を行います。この練習は新たな扉を開いてくれることでしょう。

多くの人にとって、ヨガは身体の動きと呼吸の流れを調和させるアサナの練習から始まります。パタンジャリは、ヨガを「波のように押し寄せる心の動きを止める事」と定義しています。この波と波をつなげてゆくためには、私たちが持つ微細な組織であるナーディ(管、気脈、プラナの通り道)、バンダ(錠、ロック)、チャクラ(エネルギー・センター)を一つに結び付けて行く事が重要です。

ハタヨガでは正反対の要素を結びつけ、私たちの内なる男性性と女性性を融合させてゆきます。この一体化は微細な組織の中で起こり、それは私たちの身体構造と身体活動によって支えられています。ハタヨガを練習している人は微細なエネルギーを培うことによって練習を深めてゆくことができるでしょう。経路を開いてクリアにし、バンダを使ってエネルギーが自由にチャクラを通って行けるよう導き、最終的には心の動きを静めて行きます。

さらに練習を深めようと思うなら、その助けとなる手段は私たちの内にあるのです。

Tibetan Yoga / September 7 & 21, 2013 – Rudra Yoga Tokyo, Sendagaya

Tibetan Eyes

Tibetan Yoga チベタン・ヨガ

Join us for class Saturday September 7 & 21, 2013 at our Sendagaya practice space.
10:00-11:15
¥2,500

email rudrayogatokyo@gmail.com to reserve your spot.

This system perfectly coordinates breath and dynamic movement to direct energy into the central channel, stabilizing meditation as one’s natural state. It systematically transforms karma (dualistic experience) into primordial wisdom (pure awareness) through clearing the channels and chakras, developing breath retention, and generating the inner heat necessary to ignite one’s inner sun.
このシステムは呼吸と力強い動きを完全に連動させ、エネルギーを中央経路へと向かわせ、瞑想で私たちのありのままの状態を保ってゆきます。経路とチャクラをクリアにし、呼吸の保持を行い、内なる太陽を燃え上がらせるために必要な内なる熱を作り出す事を通して、カルマ(二元的な経験)を体系的に、根源的な知恵(純粋な気づき)へと変化させます。
