Why Apocalypse yoga?
Creator
The word "apocalypse" can have a negative association, depending on the conditioning you had with the word. For some, it can mean:
Wikipedia shows apocalypse (ἀποκάλυψις, apokálypsis) as a Greek word meaning "revelation", "an unveiling or unfolding of things not previously known and which could not be known apart from the unveiling".
Imagine an eclipse. The object that is eclipsed is unknown. An apocalypse is the destruction of the obstruction. The goal of the physical practice (hatha yoga) is to prepare the individual for seated meditation (raja yoga). The goal of yogic meditation is to completely remove or destroy ignorance or incorrect understanding (avidya) of one's Spiritual Self. Therefore, the apocalypse is the complete and final destruction in the way one knows him or herself before the moment of final awakening or enlightenment.
The goal of these Apocalypse Yoga events is to spread the promise of traditional yoga through amazing pop-up yoga classes for all levels.
We need your help and support in bringing these events to your city!
Stay tuned,
