3-Month Sadhana Course Jan 21 – April 18 2009
The 3-Month Sadhana Course is a transforming process that springs from our knowledge and experience of the finest methods of yoga: Kriya Yoga, Inner Silence, Chidakash Dharana, Prana Vidya, Chaya Upasana and more.
From the end of January until the end of April, Swami Janakananda together with Ma Sita Savitri and other teachers from the center instruct 35 participants from different parts of the world in yoga and meditation on the annual 3-Month Sadhana retreat.
A retreat at Haa Course Center is unique in content and intensity.
Our programmes are designed for those who want to experience the strength of yoga and tantric meditation.
People come from all over the world, to discover themselves and their potential under the best possible circumstances.
You are welcome to participate without any prior experience, in most of our courses.
Read all the information on the retreats and on Haa International Course Center before you enrol.
However to participate on a 1-month summer retreat in Kriya Yoga and a 10-day retreat in Prana Vidya, you need to have taken part in a 10 or 14-day course and also practised Ajapa Japa (or Kriya Yoga) on your own.

Yoga and meditation in eight parts
Short and fundamental introduction to yoga and meditation >>
Swami Janakananda's classical book on yoga and meditation
"Greetings Janakananda
I just read your wonderful book on Yoga and Tantra.
The presentation of the information is so clear, straight forward and unpretentious.
I am amazed at how effective some of these methods of meditation are.
The simple act of sitting motionless and experiencing the body, breath and mind is very powerful.
I have worked out my little morning routine of yoga, some breathing and some quiet meditation. It is so refreshing and makes my entire day wonderful.
I have reccomended this book to many friends beginers as well as more experienced practitioners because it serves as a good introduction and a refresher for those who have practiced for quite awhile.
I wish this would have been the first exposure I had to this tradition. I would have wasted a lot less time.
All the best – Malcolm, California, USA" August 2008

The CD contains two relaxations, a long and a short Yoga Nidra. They are guided by Swami Janakananda, accompanied by the master of sitar Roop Verma with a special music that he has brought to light from the Indian Nada Yoga tradition.
Yoga Nidra in this original form, supplemented with the Nada Yoga music, is by far one of the most effective relaxations
