Hi Reader - Just a quick "Last Call" for How to Deliver a Great Dharma Talk on The Thread Yoga Collective: a live online workshop for yoga teachers who want to learn my a simple system for authentically sharing philosophical wisdom in your classes. If you're an experienced teacher but need a way to share your knowledge of yoga philosophy in a way that works in today's shorter class formats, this workshop is for you. If you're a novice teacher who wants to share yoga wisdom but you don't feel qualified because you haven't studied enough yet, this workshop will show you how to do it in a way that's guaranteed to make "imposter syndrome" a thing of the past . As a yoga teacher, you know that your students come to class for more than just the poses—they’re looking for insight, inspiration, and a deeper connection to something meaningful. But when it comes to weaving yoga philosophy into your teaching, you might hesitate. Maybe you’re unsure how to introduce it in a way that feels natural and engaging, or you worry about saying too much—or too little. Perhaps you’ve studied yoga philosophy but struggle to translate it into something accessible for your students. Or perhaps you just got started with yoga philosophy and don't feel qualified to talk about it or answer your student's questions. What if there was a simple way for you to integrate yoga philosophy into your classes and workshops that removed any obstacle that might be holding you back?
You’ll leave this workshop with a practical system for sharing personal insights in a way that feels natural, engaging, and meaningful—regardless of how much or how little philosophy you’ve studied. This workshop is tomorrow night so now's the time to register! How to Deliver a Great Dharma Talk Wednesday, July 22nd @ 7:00 pm EDT CLICK HERE for full info and registration. Wishing you all good fortune, - Hari-k |

I mean beyond the limits of the physical universe. I started thinking that there must be other dimensions of time and space and other states of consciousness that I could learn how to access. Eventually, I realized that there was something just as, if not more, important than being able to access higher states of consciousness:...
Greetings Reader - I met David Hogg, one of the leading voices for generational change in the Democratic Party, at a round-table discussion I attended here in Washington, D.C. this past week. I only spoke with him for a few minutes, just long enough to register my support for his mission, acknowledge its high degree of difficulty, express my gratitude for his efforts, and offer some words of encouragement. What he’s pushing for is a paradigm shift; a new model for how political action and...
Greetings Reader, I talk to a lot of people who’ve tried meditation but can’t stick with it. Or who’ve read yoga philosophy but still feel like something’s missing. Or who believe in something more—but don’t know what to do with that belief. Bhakti-yoga fills that gap. It’s not about rituals you don’t relate to or vague spiritual affirmations. It’s a grounded, time-tested practice that combines philosophy, spirituality, and meditation into a path that’s both intellectually satisfying and...
