by Andreas Ziörjen

Book Overview

Previously published as "Sankalpa: How to Understand and Manifest Your Innermost Desires" by Andreas Zi?rjen. Revised and expanded edition as part of the newly created Chakra Series.

How to Design the Life You Want with Ease

How do we know what we really want? And once we do, how do we get there when there seem to be a multitude of obstacles in our own way? This book offers some answers to these questions. Based in the Yogic-Tantric tradition, author and meditation teacher Andreas Zi?rjen shares tools for working with your Manipura Chakra, the energy center directly connected to your willpower, goals, and desires.

"The Power of Sankalpa helps you recognize the difference between authentic and conditioned desires, and shows you how to use yogic meditation to get closer and closer to finding and following your soul's path. It is the first book in a series that will guide you through all of the seven major chakras and offer you new and easy to practice ways to integrate these fundamental energies into your life.

Andreas Zi?rjen has worked extensively with different chakra models from different cultures in his more than thirty years of practice with teachers in the Indian, Western, and Hawaiian traditions.

Therefore, since we cannot be truly free of desire, it is worthwhile to at least work with our desires in a conscious way. How often are we really aware of what we want and why?

Years ago, when I began to observe and work with my desires in depth for the first time, I was in for a bit of a shock: I had to realize that many of my superficial wishes and goals, which I pursued day after day, were not really my own.
They were, and still are, in part, ideas shaped by my environment, my family history, and society at large about what is right and desirable-and, even more limiting, about what is even possible.

So how can we access our deepest, truly authentic desires? More importantly, how do we actually bring our goals to life, into our reality, into manifestation?
