“Each person’s life is like a mandala – a vast limitless circle. We stand in the centre of our own circle,
and everything we see, hear and think forms the mandala of our life.”
Pema Chodron
Welcome to the Mandala Book Club, a sacred circle to enlighten the mind. I chose this name for the book club as mandalas symbolise wisdom, personal growth and connectedness. My intention for this book club is to create an online community of like-minded individuals interested in reading and discussing books that relate to the practice and philosophy of yoga, mindfulness and well being.
One of the five Niyamas is Svadhyaya, self study or education of the self. Reading sacred and inspirational books can be part of your daily practice of yoga. You are invited to participate in this book club if you are a yoga teacher or an individual interested in reading and discussing yogic philosophy or yoga related books. It is intended that the book club will collectively choose and read four books per year, one per season. On this website you will find a review of the book as well as options to share, comment and interact via an online meeting in person and links to recordings after the live event.
