Swami Satsangi in Madrid

We were fortunate to be able to attend the Satyananda gathering in Madrid last week, which was graced by the presence of Swami Satsangi.

I have to say it was quite a remarkable experience. They managed to squeeze an lot in during a short time - Friday Afternoon to Sunday morning.

We had several Satsangs with Swami-ji, where she spoke on the topics that were the title of the event - Gyana, Bhakti and Karma yogas. She talked with her usual clarity and charm, and made the relationship between the three seem somehow obvious and natural.

The two morning hatha sessions were both absolutely amazing. Both were very, very simple, but were incredibly profound, with the usual Satyananda emphasis on awareness, rather than gymnastics. The second day, in particular was almost a full hour spent doing just TTK - bracketed with mantra and pranayama - with absolute focus, lead by Acharya Swami Anandananda, and was one of the most profound experiences I've ever had!

Overall, an excellent weekend.
