Through the sound of Dhrupad music (Nada Yoga), meditation and breath (Kriya Yoga), and channeling Intuition (Raja Yoga), there is Union (Yoga) with/as One-Self. As this pure Beingness, access to full creative potential in all aspects of life experience flows through the bodily expression. 

​

In essence, Dhrupad is alignment in Self expressed in sounded and resonant form. The term Dhrupad is a composite of Dhruva -North Star/Polaris, and Pada -way/verse. (As Yoga in sound - the audible vibration of Self - it is also called Nada Yoga.) As such, the singing of Dhrupad music is a core offering and practice. Complementing this, Vipassana meditation for grounding in awareness and the yogic/tantric mastery over breath (Pranayama) comprise Kriya Yoga, the yoga of bodily knowing. Intuitive guidance accesses higher, subtle knowing, and its limitless creative power for achieving full potential in all aspects of life. This is the direct "pathless path" -- Raja Yoga --  with the power to create all life experience.
