Darshan Kaur has been a student of Yogi Bhajan for over 40 years, and is grateful for the opportunity to be able to share Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan with others. The teachings of Yogi Bhajan have had a profound affect on her life, and it is a joy to her to be able to share these teachings of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation. The teachings of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation are able to provide an experience of consciousness and healing that are deeply felt, giving us tools to be able to live, serve and prosper in a time of great difficulties in the world.
Humanology, the teachings of Yogi Bhajan about ways to live a healthy, happy and holy life, are so interesting and are a part of the Kundalini Yoga and Meditation training for teachers. Yogi Bhajan talked in great detail about men and women, and their similarities, and their differences. He gave many suggestions for how to sleep, how to eat, how to wake up, how to serve others, how to have sex, how to meditate - and he gave this information so that people could know themselves more, and through that self-knowledge, serve others.
Darshan will be teaching Humanology, yogic philosophy, five Pads and the intersection between Kundalini Yoga and Sikh Dharma.
