Dive deep into the ancient wisdom of the Laws of Nature in a knowledge course recorded by our teacher Thom Knoles (Maharishi Vyasananda Saraswati).
Friday 31st May — Sunday 2nd June 2024
SOMERS OR HOME STUDY
I am delighted to invite you to a very special knowledge course entitled Exploring the Veda which was recorded by our teacher Thom Knoles (Maharishi Vyasananda Saraswati).
Thom is the greatest Western Master of Vedic knowledge in today’s world. His experience of spending 26 years directly with his Master Maharishi Mahesh Yogi is unique in the world and enabled him to study from the very source of the Holy Tradition of Masters.
As the Vedic knowledge has always been passed down by an oral tradition, it is nearly impossible to study it via reading books or other written texts. The knowledge has to be appropriately interpreted and tailored to the level of the audience, and to the language and need of the time. Thom has enabled us, the modern meditators in the West, to dive deep into the ancient wisdom of the Laws of Nature.
What is Exploring the Veda about?
Our life is joyful, fulfilled, enjoyable and smooth to the extent to which we flow with the Laws of Nature. If we don´t understand how the Laws of Nature work, we can inadvertently violate them and then be surprised by events which we find hard, exhausting, uncontrollable or difficult in some way. In short, we suffer.
The Exploring the Veda course guides us through the very subtle yet very deep mechanics of the functioning of the Universe. We need not have been meditating for long, even just a few months. The daily innocent contact with the Unbounded field of creation which we experience when we meditate makes us very able to "get it" soon after we learnt. This course is unique and is without doubt the most refined study and understanding of Consciousness on the planet.
The course is conducted in a recorded form by Thom Knoles in ENGLISH ONLY. If you hesitate whether or not your command of English is good enough to understand him, please go to his podcast, Vedic World View. You will see if you understand him clearly.
The course has six (6) instalments in total, each comprising about 13-15 hours of recorded talks that are listened to as a group over a weekend in Somers, Victoria. A home study option is available and they need to be listened to over a period of several weeks, maximum, in your own time and home. You only commit to one instalment at a time. However you can keep going up to the sixth chapter or any number you choose, as long as they are in sequence and without skipping any instalment in between. They will be offered at 3-4 months intervals to allow integration of the knowledge. After ETV 6, Tim will offer a special trip to India in 2026. ETV is a prerequisite for Initiator Training.
As part of the first course you will need to attend Puja and I will instruct you in an additional consciousness technique, advanced pranayama, as well as a special variation of the round.
If you have not learnt a round yet (a special sequence of yoga asanas, pranayama, meditation and relaxation), please contact me and arrange a private instruction prior to commencing the Veda course.
I will be your mentor during the course and will arrange special extra sessions to answer your questions, and to nurture the community going through the process.
