“I am the President of the Bhakti Yoga Club. This club is about mantra and
musical meditation. It is the most powerful way to control your mind and your
senses. It’s a sublime way to find peace in this world because there are so many
things going on, and we need something that’s peaceful. It’s beneficial for
everyone not just yourself. This is what Bhakti Yoga Club is all about. That’s why
mantra meditation is something we do vocally not something we do silently. The
power of mantra meditation affects everyone around us. It’s a congregational
activity. The more people that are involved the more powerful it is, and more
people enjoy it. This is supported by authentic philosophy. I’ve been practicing
Bhakti Yoga since my childhood because of my parents. I am very thankful
for that and it’s taken me a while to understand what Bhakti Yoga is. It takes
a lifelong practice to fully understand because it’s about self-realization. Selfrealization is answering the questions who am I, what are my goals in life, why
am I suffering, why is someone else suffering, and how do we get out of that
suffering. If you understand that, you will have a very happy life. You can join us
by practicing the philosophy and by joining us through TigerLink.”
