I attended the lecture by Dr. Manocha at Balgowlah, Sydney on March 6 with my wife Anita. We found the information to be very useful and were both impressed by the meditation. Since then we have been enjoying the meditation class at Mosman, Sydney on Tuesday nights. These are well presented by Joe and his wife Yoni and are very much appreciated. I had always thought that yoga was to do mainly with physical wellbeing and had never realised the deep spiritual significance of yoga.
