***THIS CD IS ONE OF CD BABY'S TOP SELLERS*** 'Dhyana' contains three guided meditations which help to restore a centered state of Self awareness and facilitate healing. These guided meditations produce a deep state of relaxation. In this relaxed state, healing happens naturally and effortlessly. Repeated use of the meditations cultivates the ability to be present in the here and now and flow easily with life. Chandra recorded these meditations at the request of students in her classes, and the soothing words and music are sure to release stress and negative thoughts, helping to quiet the mind, preparing for deep meditation. Chandra has spent most of her life in service to humanity, disseminating the ancient knowledge of how to achieve radiant health and spiritual development through the science of Yoga. She is the founder and director of the North Carolina School of Yoga, and the Senior teacher and Disciple of Sri Dharma Mittra. Chandra was born in Miami, and raised in New York, where she met her Guru and Teacher, Sri Dharma Mittra. After intense study, immersion and practice of the eight limbs of Yoga, she was accepted and initiated by Sri Dharma as Chandra Om (meaning 'Moon', 'Luminous', 'Bright and Shining'), and remains with him to this day. Chandra was initiated into the family as a religious student who devotes herself to her teacher and the practice of spiritual disciplines-one who renounces the world in order to achieve liberation. This is the greatest of blessings, to be accepted by the Guru and be fully charged with His aura and grace, showered in love, compassion, thoughts of renunciation, Self-realization, surrender to the Lord and fortitude. Realizing this spiritual knowledge can only be imparted psychically, mentally and mostly spiritually. She has been loyally teaching the Yamas and Niyamas through daily practice of Classical Yoga, and has always made herself available for students in need of help and direction. As a testament to her experience and knowledge her classes are continuously and predominately filled with Yoga teachers from all styles of Yoga. Known for her dedication, humor, love and kindness in teaching, every student who comes to her class is considered by her as part of the family. She diligently teaches the Yamas, the first step of Yoga, and in every class you will hear without Yama, there is no Yoga. She tirelessly promotes ahimsa (the first step of Yoga) through vegetarianism, a live diet, and kindness to all living beings especially our inferior brothers and sisters (the animal kingdom). In 2001, Chandra founded the North Carolina School of Yoga to provide serious aspirants with an opportunity to deepen their own spiritual sadhana, starting countless students on the path of teaching Yoga. She does not teach 'styles' of Yoga, but the traditional, classical Raja Yogic tradition that has been personally taught to her by Sri Dharma, and strives to remain truthful to the traditional teachings of the science of Yoga. Chandra has initiated thousands of students on the path of Yogic practice and teaching, and teaches solely as an offering to her Guru and to all spiritual aspirants. The North Carolina School of Yoga is the ONLY school in the world certifying students solely in Sri Dharma Mittra's classical and traditional practice of Yoga. Through the genius of these methods, students can progress rapidly. Students from all walks of Yoga love Chandra's teachings, regardless of their previous styles of practice. She is the author of 3 critically and commercially acclaimed CD's, 'Dhyana', 'Mere Gurudev' and 'Be Receptive'. Her first book, Dharma Mittra; A Friend to All has just been released. Chandra is currently Director of the North Carolina School of Yoga and it's Teacher Training Programs in Raleigh, NC and the Senior teacher in Dharma's NYC Teacher Trainings. Each year she travels the world, teaching workshops, intensives and trainings. Chandra goes wherever she is invited to spread the teachings of Yoga and the methods of Sri Dharma Mittra. Her teacher trainings are attended by Yogis fro
