Sattva’s Vision is to share the different layers of yoga that will guide individuals to realize their own truth, go beyond the mind and exist in total freedom. Sattva Yoga was formed to inspire awareness of yoga as an applied lifestyle and grow the energy of the heart to promote the well being of an individual’s mind, body and soul. Sattva Yoga’s programs are designed for individuals to discover the lighter bodies of the heart and explore the core causes of human suffering in the ego.. When one can understand the source of pain, only then can he liberate beyond it. Sattva’s vision is to build a new kind of educational institution, one dedicated to the inquiry of human life and the discovery of fulfillment. It is through our ego that we feel unfulfilled or experience pain and loneliness, but when we investigate into the depths of the ego, we uncover the strength of truth and discover the abundance and joy that exists all around us. When we learn how to shift our lives and match our beliefs, actions and experiences as one, it is then that we can exist in light and truth. Most of our world’s issues come from the darkness that is created by the human ego. We often see the unjust in the other, but don’t investigate within ourselves. It is Sattva’s commitment to give the tools to allow every single individual to realize her truth. It is through the power of awareness, compassion and truth that we can heal our planet and once we become a master of our domain, instantaneously, our environment shifts as well.
Sattva uncovers the inner workings of energetic forces that are prevalent within our universe, our environment and our selves. Through the understanding of energy, we can create and manifest anything at will.
Sattva’s mission remains to grow masters, not just teachers. We believe, teachers teach what they know intellectually, but masters share their experience with the world. When we share our experience, we open up the doors for others to listen from their hearts and find their own truth, without being dogmatic or preachy. We educate individuals to share with their hearts and not their minds. When a master shares her experience, she is no longer excluding the experience of another, but is adding another layer to the practice. The practices of yoga stretch far beyond physical asanas on the mat. They encompass all the elements we experience on this Earth. Our dedication is to shed light onto issues that human’s experience on a daily level and provide a way that allows every individual to find light, compassion and understanding in every issue to find the truth beyond the ego’s perception. While grounded in yoga, it is important to understand that Sattva does not espouse a narrow or sectarian mindset. According to the Sattva understanding, yoga means separation from pain, a union into totality. Yoga is spirituality, not religion. It is an inquiry into the truth of human existence and is all inclusive of religions, philosophies, values and beliefs. Yoga is intended to allow every individual to experience the infinite wisdom that exists within, without preaching dogmatic rituals, rather awakening each person to her own experience of truth.
Sattva operates in accord with a yogic set of values: based on commitment to honesty, compassion and understanding, existence without fear, and existence based on the energies of the heart, not the ego. Embracing this way of life has proven to complete the triangle of Dharma. Allowing belief, action, and experience to exist as one, in harmony.
