Dean Rees-Evans-
Understanding Living Consciousness: The Happiness Paradox
This talk will be a fascinating exploration
of how we can all fall back naturally into happiness ñ
exploring the Three Spiritual Principles of Mind, Consciousness
and Thought as the true source of human happiness. It will
allow you to realise something deep within yourself about
the true nature of reality; how each and everyone of us
creates reality in the same way ñ and its profound
effect upon your life. If you already think life is amazing,
be prepared to have the carpet pulled out from underneath
you as you reconnect to your own wisdom, common sense and
innate psychological health. If you want to know the true
source of mental well-being, then donít miss this
session.
Dean Rees-Evans, long term vegan and proponent
of world peace and environmental issues spent the past three
& half years researching an understanding of The Three
Principles of Mind, Consciousness and Thought. His research
revealed an incredible 17% increase in psychological well-being
and a staggering 28% increase in happiness. Dean is becoming
a well known keynote speaker, and has spoken for a wider
variety of audiences in the UK and Australia. These included
VegFest (Brighton & Bristol), the London Vegan Festival,
local health authorities, schools, alternative health care
practitioners, and complimentary therapists and will be
speaking at The Truth Matters (London) later in the year.
Dean also runs intensive group courses based on his work,
and offers one-to-one sessions, also working with couples,
families, schools and businesses to enhance happiness and
well-being.

Grace - The Ancient Practices of Yoga and Tantra in Today's
World
In this lecture we will be looking at the various techniques
of Eastern Tantra and Yoga and how they can help contemporary
people achieve more fulfilling lives and connect to their
innermost Selves, thereby achieving states of inner harmony,
peace and bliss. The ancient techniques help us to heal
the split within and become whole again - a highly relevant
theme in today's fragmented world. There's a story that
when a cockroach sees another insect trying to attack it,
it becomes so mortified with fright that the image of that
insect freezes in its mind. Due to the intense ideation
of the form of its enemy, the enemy actually sees the cockroach
as one of its own kind. In other words, the vibration emanating
from the cockroach's mind influences its enemy's mind into
thinking that it is a member of its own species. Thus the
cockroach is saved from death, since the insect will not
attack one of its own kind. You may well ask, "How
has this got anything remotely to do with yoga?" The
fundamental meaning of the word "yoga" is to unify.
Hence the English word "yoke." To mix sugar and
sand means to unite the two. But it's more than that. True
unification is like mixing sugar and water: the two become
one. Yoga is the unification of the individual existence
with the Cosmic existence; the individual sense of awareness
with the Cosmic sense of awareness; the individual experience
of limited pleasures and pains with the Cosmic experience
of the unlimited: infinite happiness, perfect peace and
contentment ñ bliss. That's what we are all inextricably
attracted to; it's the reason for all the things we do.
We can never be satisfied with limited things. They may
give us pleasure for a while, but never long-lasting satisfaction.
So consciously or unconsciously, we all want bliss and we
are all trying to achieve it. But how are we supposed to
achieve it? The only way is to expand one's awareness to
infinity; to transcend the mind and enter the realm of the
Cosmic.

Ganga
Grace is the director and principal teacher of
the Himalayan Yoga Institute and has been practising and
teaching yoga and meditation for more than two decades.
She discovered the practices while writing her final thesis
at university and preparing for a career as an interpreter
and a high school professor of German language and literature.
Her life was to take a different direction after she came
in touch with the ancient yogic science. After being initiated
into the spiritual path of yogic meditation, she decided
to spend time in India and deepen her practice. There she
discovered that Indian Classical Dance and Music is a complementary
pursuit and actually a yoga in itself. While in India she
devoted herself to the in depth study of a variety of subjects,
including Eastern metaphysics, philosophy, Sanskrit, several
living Indian languages, vocal music, percussion, the art
of abhinaya (mimic or expressive dance), Indian classical
dance and yoga. Today she devotes her time to serious seekers
and also teaches yoga for beginners. She has worked as the
director of a yoga centre in Northern California, USA, for
five years and has taught yoga to youth, adults and children
and has engaged in community service as well, teaching yoga
to inmates. She has furthermore taught classes, workshops
and seminars on yoga, diet and lifestyle in India, Germany,
Croatia and the UK. She is a senior yoga instructor of the
highest level registered with Yoga Alliance (E-RYT 500).
She completed a Meditation teacher-training in 1995/6 at
Seva Dharma Mission, in Bangalore, India. A few years later
she became a Yoga Master teacher after completing a training
in 1999 at the Himalayan Institute of Integrated Therapies,
in Himachal Pradesh, Kullu, India. Her vast experience in
yoga, dance and meditation, and the opportunity to learn
from genuine masters, has helped her to greatly deepen her
practical as well as intuitive understanding of the art
and science of yoga and the mystic realms.

Dada Jyotirupananda - Conscious Choices: Food &
Spirituality for a Better World
assisted by Krsnadeva Hanson
People often think of food only in
terms of physical health. The benefits of a vegetarian
diet include more than physical health. Such a diet has
a great, positive impact on our mind and our spiritual
development, as well as for our global, environmental
and economic health. A healthy, conscious diet will guide
us toward a deeper sense of personal fulfillment, which
can be seen as a deeper sense of spirituality. Thus a
pure diet helps is to be more in tune with the universe
and more able to live a fulfilled life on every level.
Dada Jyotirupananda has been a meditation teacher
for more than 25 years. His book, Meditation: Searching
for the Real You, published by O Books, has been called,
"A sweeping and inspired surveyî of yogic meditation.
He is also the editor of New Renaissance (www.ru.org)
a magazine for social and spiritual awakening.
