ONLINE COURSE: The Next Step of Your Life
For the first time in English: LIVE with Sahaja - from 03.00 pm to 07.00 pm
In this time full of uncertainty, we ask ourselves what the "next step" will be, as individuals and as humanity as a whole. It is as if we were looking out a window, waiting for life to unfold before us and for "someone" to make decisions. The great yogis and quantum physicists, however, teach us that WE ARE THE CREATORS of reality. Let's find out together what your next, unique and special step will be, and how you can concretely manifest it in your life.

We are confronted with an uncertain scenario, that makes it difficult to understand what our “next step” will be. Which direction will our life take? Our work? Our relationships? Our everyday life? More than ever, it may seem that so many of these decisions are beyond our control and in the hands of scientists, politicians or economists.
The masters of yoga (and the quantum physicists), however, tell us that we are co-creators of reality and that we can manifest our most glorious goals. They remind us that we have the power to choose whether our steps will lead us to the fulfillment of our soul’s deepest desires or will keep us in the painful grooves already created by our habits and fears. They also show us the practical tools we need to transform our lives.
In this online seminar we will use the teachings and techniques of Paramhansa Yogananda and Swami Kriyananda, through the popular method “The Next Step of Your Life”, to lift the veils of confusion, uncertainty and fear and listen to the guidance of our “inner GPS”: our superconsciousness, that always knows the right direction for us, even in times of great challenges.Through guided introspections, visualizations and creative techniques, we will explore:
- How to draw on superconscious guidance to identify your goal (the life you really want and can achieve).
- How to draw on the innumerable inner and outer resources you already possess and how to develop new precious ones.
- How to identify and remove the obstacles you might encounter on your path, especially the inner ones (fears, limiting thought forms, etc.).
- What is your next step and how to take it with joy and determination.
THis is the first time that we are offering in English the “Next Step of Your Life” method, which has already helped hundreds of people to clarify their lives and achieve their goals. It will be a joy to share it with you at this significant time in our lives.
You will need to have a notebook or notepad at hand.

Alcune preziose testimonianze di chi ha fatto il corso ad Ananda:
«Partecipare ai corsi del Prossimo Passo ogni volta mi smuove qualcosa di profondo e quando torno a casa sento che non sono più come ero prima. Anche se per pochi istanti, riesco a percepire il mio essere parte di un qualcosa di eterno e luminoso. E tutto ciò è molto bello». – Fabio
«Tornare nella realtà è stato come la sveglia che ti distoglie dal sonno, ma solo per renderti conto che ora "puoi", che non è stato solo un sogno… Mi sento diversa, più forte! E di questo non potrò mai finire di ringraziare i Maestri, voi, poi tutto il gruppo di anime, come me, alla ricerca di pace… E devo ringraziare anche me, per essermi data questa possibilità!! Ho iniziato le pratiche del mattino, mi sto organizzando perché diventino parte integrante della giornata, insieme a quelle della sera. Il lavoro è molto più grande, ma ora SO che POSSO farcela. Grazie a tutti! Con grande affetto e tanta Luce». –Maria
«Stupendo ricordo dei bei momenti insieme..Un grande tesoro interiore da portare nel cuore e sostegno per i momenti difficili della vita… L'energia sarà sempre più alta e i pensieri bassi toccheranno sempre meno la nostra mente. Grazie per i bei messaggi di positività, gioia, amore che ci avete trasmesso». –Agnese
