Kumbh Mela

Depending on your country of birth or religion, you may be surprised to know that, up until last week, I had never heard of one of the largest and oldest religious ceremonies in human history – the Kumbh Mela. After watching the films below, I am determined to attend the Kumbh Mela as part of my own spiritual pilgrimage. If you watch and listen to the teachings, ceremonies, and philosophies of the Yogis and Sadhus you may begin to see a deeper connection between all religions.

Breathe, You Are Alive: The Sutra on the Full Awareness of Breathing – Thich Nhat Hanh

In his book Breathe, You Are Alive: The Sutra on the Full Awareness of Breathing, Thich Nhat Hanh supplies a commentary on the Anapanasati Sutta. I would recommend the book to anyone interested in learning how to achieve a state of well-being and health.

Light on Yoga – B.K.S. Iyengar

Great illustrated book on Yoga:
Every asana contains several pictures and a detailed description. Some of the asanas are literally impossible!
