Removing the Meannesses of the Heart: A Yogi’s Guide to True Love

  • Ananda Temple 2171 El Camino Real Palo Alto, CA, 94306 United States (map)

Class 9 of 9 (drop-ins welcome)

In 1894, at the request of Mahavatar Babaji, Sri Yukteswar Giri wrote a book called The Holy Science.

This book was meant to emphasize and explain the underlying unity and harmony of all religions.

In it, he speaks about awakening what he called “the natural love of the heart” –not by learning more about love, but rather by resolving what he called “the eight meanesses,” those qualities that prevent us from making spiritual progress and experiencing love.

In this short book study of Darshan Jan Lotichius’ book, Awakening the Natural Love of the Heart, we will look at how Sri Yukteswar defined the ‘meannesses’ and how we can grow beyond them through the teachings of this path. 

Using Darshan’s wisdom-filled examples and stories, and the timeless teachings of this great Master, we will find our way through removing the eight bondages to find inner freedom and unconditional love.

The class will be part lecture, part discussion and of course, music.
