Can Yoga do anything for you?

It may sound strange, but everybody can practice Yoga. Even you. All it takes is good will. You do not have to be young, lean or strong. Our systematic, age-old program takes care of everything, with the help of time. You follow your own tempo, within your specific capacities. Your teacher will help you.

Since very ancient time the sages of the East tell us that one can become happy and healthy by practicing Yoga. However, they did not mean a superficial, only physically oriented Yoga, but the complete, classical Yoga training, with all the different Yoga styles included.

Our school, The Raja Yoga Institute, is the first school in the world to offer this complete Yoga training since 1984. Our program is based on a traditional structure, thoroughly tested and very successful:

• a revealing Hatha Yoga training as the best Basic Training Course to start with,
• an amazing Raja Yoga training, that you can consider as a true Teacher Training Course, regarding its quality,
• and a wonderful Karma Yoga training, which you receive as a unique Master Training Course, if you wish to attain perfection.

The theoretical background is based on the original Sanskrit-scriptures and the method of the old seers (Rishi's), which has always been used in all true Yoga-schools: trough realization of some unconscious aspects man can come to a better coordination, discover his real "I" and reach the highest levels of consciousness.

Although the content is very orthodox, the approach is special: you are free and you decide yourself what you want and when it suits you. Only thanks to these elements there is a possibility of growth of your intellect. The opportunity for Self-realization arises and maybe there is a possibility for mastership. Our school takes care of an open and challenging atmosphere.

Our combination of an orthodox content and an unorthodox approach has a refreshing result: your body is purified, healthier and stronger; your illnesses are remedied successfully and the quality of your concentration improves tremendously.

The results are impressive and for the first time in accordance with the original Yoga-scriptures. Yoga is not a stiff discipline anymore, but a living and fascinating adventure.

The totality of techniques, the method mentioned before and the approach have been thoroughly tested since 1984. Many hundreds of students have already completed the training successfully. Many true teachers and masters are now helping people. They are the hallmark of our school.

It is obvious that you have to consider a systematic training, if you want to develop in an harmonious way. The physical, moral, emotional, vital, mental and spiritual powers that you handle within your being are inseparably linked with each other. Growth in one or the other power results in an imbalance of the total. Unless you are able to cope adequately with the new situation.

There are eight clear steps, following each other, in our very ancient Yoga training. They bring your conscious being slowly but steadily to the highest spiritual levels:

1. moral principles (Yama's): First you reconsider your existing habits towards violence, lie, theft, unchastity and desire. Spending some time consciously helps you to obtain a nice attitude.
2. moral ideals (Niyama's): Consequently you can lay a solid fundament in your social life by practicing purity, contentment, austerity, Self- study, and surrender to the Almighty.
3. physical postures (Asana's): Then you can achieve physical health, power and suppleness by harmonizing the activity of the related energy centers (Cakra's) with the physical postures.
4. energy control (Pranayama): When now your energy channels have been freed from big hindrances, you can start now with the control of your two fundamental energy streams and improve your vitality and physical power dramatically.
5. detachment (Pratyahara): Unfortunately the above steps bring forth a dangerously increased sensibility. So now is the time to learn to withdraw your energy from the related perception.
6. concentration (Dharana): Only then you can achieve a successful concentration of your mind on a chosen object. Your physical and emotional health increase. Your mental power appears.
7. meditation (Dhyana): When there are no more disturbances in your concentration and you can steadily hold on to a chosen object you have reached the incredible stage of total control of your thoughts.
8. the highest step, contemplation (Samadhi): Finally you obtain true knowledge, together with an awakening of your paranormal powers, by this wonderful technique of control of your higher consciousness.
