SRI KRISHNA UPASANA
A 9 Day Virtual Sadhana Program
August 22 - 30, 2021

My Bhakta who worships with faith by fixing his mind on Me  as 'Personal God', is  the best Yogi. Anyone  seeking the 'un-manifested' (Formless Brahman), experiences great difficulty because it  is very troublesome for the living beings  to attain the 'Formless'. - Bhagavad Gita

Upasana is often translated as “upa” near and “asana” as sitting… sitting near to truth… or “tending to” (our spiritual duties and alignment). So in a Krishna Upasana, it refers to a time where one will “sit in” or be “nearer to” the Divine Shakti and Kripa/Grace of Krishna. Asana refers to holding a position mindfully, with the expressed intention to dissolve into or surrender to That.  
 
An Upasana reflects a time in our lives where we choose to make a more conscious effort to hold ourselves in such a way that Divine Alignment is easier and more fruitful. Being supported by the Grace of Sri Sri Sri Svami Purna Maharaj Grace makes these opportunities always unique and rare.
​
In this Upasana we will be attuning our minds and opening our hearts to the Grace, Presence, and Reality of Sri Krishna. Krishna represents the Supreme Personality; the Ultimate Formless Reality manifest as a Relatable Personality. Krishna is All, but through His stories is primarily depicted as the Personification of the blissfully intoxicated, loving playfulness of the Divine.
Krishna is the Formless Reality, Brahman ItSelf, that is manifest in and as All Things. To understand this Truth is to comprehend the Divine Play, the Lila, to comprehend Infinity.
