Mission
Statement of the New York Center for Kripalu Yoga and Health
Our
mission is to create, in New York City, a spiritual center guided by the
teachings and love brought to us by Swami Kripalvananda
(Bapuji) and the Kripalu lineage. Our intention is to provide a safe,
nurturing, and peaceful environment where personal growth can take place through
Kripalu Yoga sadhana (spiritual practices) and
seva (selfless service) in the company of like-minded people. We wish to
inspire learning, a healthy lifestyle, the pursuit of truth, and the experience
of the Light within each of us.
May
we be protected together
May
we be nourished together
May
we work together with great vigor
May
our study be enlightening
May
there be no hatred between us
OM
Peace Peace Peace
Lead
us from the unreal to the real
Lead
us from darkness to light
Lead
us from death to immortality

There has been a renewed interest in having workshops in New York with experienced Kripalu teachers.

Discussion List on Bapuji and Living/Evolving Kripalu Teachings in the World
As an inspiration from the December 2004 Bapuji retreat at Kripalu in Lenox, a group has been set up on the internet for people to be in community about how we are manifesting Kripalu yoga in the world. Lenox MA is an important but not the only source for this information, so please show up and participate in the discussion. Want to read notes from the retreat? How is the lineage being transmitted in the 21st Century? Do you need inspiration or help with a project related to Kripalu dharma? The
"Bapuji - Kripalu dharma" tribe is a discussion group on tribe.net, a free service for connecting to a community of people with common interests. This is the place to have the conversation about the Kripalu lineage and legacy, our experiments in love, and anything else related to
Bapuji. Please check it out and spread the word- see http://bapuji.tribe.net/ To join, click the button in the upper right corner and create a profile with as much or as little information as you want.
Go to http://bapuji.tribe.net/ and check it out.

The NY Kripalu Center is a completely volunteer organization. Anything that happens is because
someone cares enough to do it. Words are not adequate for the gratitude I feel towards Adrienne,
Mary Lou, Joan, Helen, Tamar, Larry, and of course, the stalwart and cheerful Allen.
So here’s a few suggestions for what we could use help with –
please contact me if you’re interested or have other ideas that you’d like to put into action
-
Answering the phone line for a few weeks
-
Making a few phone calls on the Center's behalf
-
Finding space for activities
-
Exploring non-profit status
-
Organizing events for the NY Center
