The Radiance Sutras Online Book Club Series with Tara Lemerise

  • Roots & River Yoga 17 West Potomac Street Brunswick, MD, 21716 United States (map)

5 Week Online Series
Tuesdays, 7:30-8:30pm
April 9th - May 7th

Fondly known as “The 112 Gateways to the Yoga of Wonder and Delight”, The Vijnana Bhairava Tantra or The Radiance Sutras provides us with an alternative to the philosophy and meditation practices in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. Rather than suppress the turnings of the mind and deny our desires, this text invites us to access divinity in our embodiment as the key to finding lasting peace. This text assures us that it is possible to find freedom from our sufferings via normal human experiences such as breathing, falling asleep and waking up, being in nature, and making love.

Join us to explore the beauty of these verses that encourage you to befriend the whole of your human experience as a pathway to enlightenment.

Tara Lemerise, E-RYT 200/E-RYT 500, was expecting the Ashtanga Yoga Primary series and ended up in a Restorative Yoga class instead. That was her best mistake ever! Tara has been teaching Restorative Yoga since 2005 and has earned Restorative Yoga teaching certificates from Jillian Pransky, Judith Hanson Laster, and Cyndi Lee. She has since trained over 100 yoga teachers in her highly-acclaimed Rest for All: Restorative Yoga Teacher Training. Tara is deeply committed to spreading the word about the power of the down-regulating and healing practices of Restorative Yoga in order to subvert the prevailing capitalist narrative that humans need to be over-worked and under-rested to have value.
