09-06-25 | The Hungry Mind: A Yogic Approach to Craving and Contentment

Saturday, September 6 @ 10:00 am MORNING

Online and Recorded

Why does the mind constantly seek, grasp, and hunger for more—yet rarely feel satisfied? Craving is not merely about pleasure or consumption; it is a deep-seated pattern that keeps the soul bound in dissatisfaction and restlessness.

We will explore:

• The root causes of craving from the perspectives of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, the Buddha’s Four Noble Truths, and modern behavioral understanding
• How craving manifests in thought, emotion, and action—and how it leads to cycles of suffering
• The role of samskaras (mental impressions) and vasanas (latent desires) in driving repetitive behavior
• How to develop mindful awareness, inner contentment, and mental discipline that focuses on conscious habit transformation to gently dissolve these patterns
