Our Schedule of Events

Second Quarter 2012
I suppose I should call this section schedules of events and news, becuase it seems I ramble on about all the things we are up to, even if we haven't scehduled them.
Light Sittings will held on the web on the second and fourth Sundays of each month.
Those of you who are Mudrashram® students and those of you who have been invited to join us can attend whereever you are in the world through our Light Sitting webinars. If you wish to join us for these webinars over the Internet, please email us at webinar@mudrashram.com.
Attending a Light Sitting
It is suggested that you have some familiarity with our work and our lineage, plus a background having done some meditation, before showing up here (so you won't be absolutely lost). Light sittings, in their new guided meditation format, have been lasting for up to two hours. If you are not used to "sitting for development," you may find yourself ill at ease at these events.
Most of the people attending these events have taken The Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation at least once, completed the Accelerated Meditation Program, or attended one of our workshops.
If you'd like to find out how to enroll in the Master Course, click here.
Support for Master Course Completers
For those of you who have taken The Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation, we have available two CDs with guided meditations for the key techniques of this class, as many of you have requested.
The Satsang Program Home Study Course is also available, so you can experience this powerful guided meditation course at home. It contains 16 CDs and articles. This is available to anyone who has completed the Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation or the Accelerated Meditation Program [see below for details].
Current Scheduled Classes
We do not have any current scheduled Master Course classes for this quarter. We will post this information when we have set up a class. If you really want a Master Course and you live in Southern California, have you considered hosting a class?
Alternately, if you live in an outlying area and you just have to get this class in person, consider doing our Intensive Program. In our Intensive Program, you fly into Los Angeles for a six-day vacation. We teach you the Master Course over five consecutive evenings; you do all the exciting touristy things you have been dreaming of doing in Los Angeles during the day. If you are interested in doing our Intensive Program, please contact us here.
Our New Meditation Programs
For those of you that don't live in the greater Los Angeles area and can't come to our classes, we have available the Integral meditation course called theAccelerated Meditation Program (AMP), which you can study privately, no matter where you live in the world.
AMP is a version of the Master Course that teaches the essential core techniques of Integral Meditation, plus everything you learn in the class except the Kundalini meditation technique (sorry, we don't teach this without direct supervision—too many problems can occur when people start dabbling with this energy without guidance). The AMP has got CDs, a personalized reading, a workbook, and well, you'll be excited!
For all of you AMPers who have begged to learn our safe kundalini method, here's how you get it:
After you complete the AMP, you send us back the final exam. If you pass it, you get a free consultation where I will go over the core techniques to make sure you are doing them right. This can be done by phone or video.
You can formally request, with a nominal charge for our time, a by-phone/video training in kundalini in which we supervise you in its correct, safe and appropriate use and show you how to properly ground yourself after using this method.
AMPers who have access to a video cam can do your follow up consultations, both technique review and kundalini, over Skype.
In fact, you can do many of our readings and consultations over Skype, so it's almost like sitting across from George at your dining room table.
Here's the scoop on our video readings.
Please e-mail us to apply for AMP.
Also check out the Mudrashram® Correspondence
Course. It is for those who have completed our basic course in meditation—either the Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation or the Accelerated Meditation Program.
This is a comprehensive 104-week, 50 lesson meditation and consciousness studies program that maps the entire Continuum of Consciousness from waking awareness in the Conscious mind to the highest Planes of the Transcendental Sphere.
It is unique and unlike any meditation correspondence course currently available.
Weekend Webinars
We have continued our webinars on Saturdays for our current students. This includes those who have completed the AMP and the Master Course, and those who are currently taking the AMP or the Master Course. If you are a Mudrashram® student and have not been getting our email invitations, let us knowhere.
We plan to begin giving Introductory Webinars for the general public, so you can learn about Mudrashram® and ask us questions—when there are enough of you who are interested to warrant us doing them. If you are interested in joining an introductory webinar, please email us here.
We have continued our Paid Webinars on the third Sunday of each month. If you missed any of these workshops or you want to put on the email list for these paid workshops, please let us know here.

Information about Our Books
Oh, we haven't told you? Since we have completedThe Practical Applications in Meditation in Daily Life and Education on 5/24/11, we have also releasedMeditation for Therapy: Theory and Applications;volumes two and three of the Collected Poetry of George A. Boyd; and the next volume in our Intiate's Library series, The Yoga of the Seven Mudras: Introducing the Mudrashram® System of Integral Meditation: The Advanced Practice of Meditation. For the remainder of 2012, we're focusing on completing our books for the Initiate's Library—there are four more volumes in our Imprint series.
We're publishing three types of books.
The first type is only available for those who have completed the Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation or the Accelerated Meditation Program—it's called the Initiate's Library, level one.
The second type is only available for those who have completed the Mudrashram® Advanced Course in Meditation—it's called the Initiate's Library, level two.
The third type of book is, well, for everybody. These books are listed in Books in Print. They are listed in the Library of Congress... and in good time, they'll probably show up on Amazon.com. You can get them from us direct for a substantial discount over the retail price.
For more information on the books now available, check out Our New Books. Here are the books we have published thus far:
Our first book released in January 2008 was called, The Yoga of the Seven Mudras: Introducing the Mudrashram System of Integral Meditation. Volume One: the Fundamentals of Meditation. This book is part of our Initiate's Library, level one. You have to complete either the Master Course or the AMP to get this.
We recommend it for those of you who take the AMP, so you can understand the course material better, and get a glimpse into what your spiritual cousins, the Master Coursers, are doing. Those who take the Master Course can learn about the program they took in greater depth.
The other book we released in January 2008 is called Meditation for Recovery: Key Techniques for Manitaining Sobriety, Sanity and Serenity.
This book teaches you about ways to recover from an addiction, and gives meditation techniques to help you in your recovery process.
A new book was released in August 2008. It's called A Mudrashram® Reader: Understanding Integral Meditation.
This one is a must have. It puts web articles, workshop handouts (you haven't seen these unless you've been hanging with us and going to the Light Sittings and workshops), and brand new articles nobody has seen—all in one place.
We released in December 2008, The Collected Poetry of George A. Boyd, volume one, and The Discourses of Swami Prem Dayal, second edition.
If you are a poetry lover, you will go flippers with this new poetry book! George has a way of using poetry to guide you into ecstatic states of consciousness and reveal mystical truths. His poetry will blow your mind!
If you are interested in checking out the very inspirational channeled teachings that George received from one of the Mudrashram® Multiplane Masters, Swami Prem Dayal, when George first began his teaching work—they are captured in our short volume, The Discourses of Swami Prem Dayal, second edition.
Our book released in 2010, The Psychic Realm: Finding Safe Passage through the Worlds of Illusion, will give those of you who are sojourning across this realm of the Divine Imagination some guidance on how you can avoid getting ensnared in the deceptions of this realm, and how you can safely and sanely develop your innate psychic gifts.
In 2011, we released:
(1) Religions, Cults and Terrorism: What the Heck Are We Doing? [This book is fabulous—it goes into how religions turn into cults and terrorist groups, how to recognize a cult, how to get recover from being involved in cults, and much more!]
(2) The Practical Applications of Meditation in Daily Life and Education [This is probably as close as you'll ever get to having me write a self-help book&emdash;it has information on stress reduction, goal-setting, personal assessment, improving your study habits. It's a really cool book. Renate did the cover and the internal artwork, too.]
(3) Meditation for Therapists: Theory and Application [This book shares many of our writings on Transpersonal Psychology, Hypnosis, and Healing, and elucidates the use of meditation in counseling and therapy. You may or may not know that George A. Boyd studied psychotherapy while he was in graduate school, and while he did not go on to become a Marriage Family Therapist, he has incorporated his learning in his explorations of the interface between Psychotherapy and Meditation.]
(4) The Collected Poetry of George A. Boyd, volume two [This is the archives of George's poetry from 1979 to 1984].
In 2012 so far we have released:
(1) The Collected Poetry of George A. Boyd, volume three [This is the archives of George's poetry from 1972 to 1979].
(2) The Yoga of the Seven Mudras: Introducing the Mudrashram® System of Integral Meditation, volume two – The Advanced Practice of Meditation[This is the first book for our completers of the Mudrashram® Advanced Course in Meditation, and covers the meditation practices that allow one to access the Higher Octaves of Being].
