Mudrashram Institute of Spiritual Studies
Our Schedule of Events
Spring 2010
Light Sittings will be held as usual on the second Sunday of each month, on 3/14/10, and 4/11/10.
Light Sittings are held at 11:00am in our West Hollywood location. Light Sittings are always free of charge.
We will continue holding our second monthly Light Sitting at our West Hollywood (or alternate) locations if there continues to be a request for these on 3/28/10, 4/25/10, and 5/23/10.
We have a special Light Sitting scheduled in the Orlando, Florida area on Friday 3/5/10 in the early evening, and in the Charleston, South Carolina area the following evening on Saturday 3/6/10. If you are in this area and wish to attend, please contact Renate.
For this quarter, we will be foregoing Light Sittings in the San Diego area while we work on our website and publishing projects.
Attending a Light Sitting
It is suggested that you have some familiarity with our work and our lineage, plus a background having done some meditation, before showing up here (so you won't be absolutely lost). Light sittings typically last for up to an hour. If you are not used to "sitting for development," you may find yourself ill at ease at these events.
Most of the people attending these events have taken The Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation at least once, completed the Accelerated Meditation Program, or attended one of our workshops.

Support for Master Course Completers
For those of you who have taken The Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation, we have available two CDs with guided meditations for the key techniques of this class, as many of you have requested.
The Satsang Program Home Study Course is also available, so you can experience this powerful guided meditation course at home. It contains 16 CDs and articles. This is available to anyone who has completed the Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation or the Accelrated Meditation Program [see below for details].
Our New Meditation Programs
For those of you that don't live in the greater Los Angeles area and can't come to our classes, we have available the Integral meditation course called the Accelerated Meditation Program (AMP), which you can study privately, no matter where you live in the world.
AMP is a version of the Master Course that teaches the essential core techniques of Integral Meditation, plus everything you learn in the class except the Kundalini meditation technique (sorry, we don't teach this without direct supervision—too many problems can occur when people start dabbling with this energy without guidance). It's got CDs, a personalized reading, a workbook, and well, you'll be excited!
For all of you AMPers who have begged to learn our safe kundalini method, here's how you get it:
After you complete the AMP, you send us back the final exam. If you pass it, you get a free phone consultation where I will go over the core techniques to make sure you are doing them right.
You can formally request, with a nominal charge for our time, a by phone training in kundalini in which we supervise you in its correct, safe and appropriate use and show you how to properly ground yourself after using this method.
AMPers who have access to a video cam now can do your follow up consultations, both technique review and kundalini, over Skype.
In fact, you can do many of our readings and consultations over Skype, so it's almost like sitting across from George at your dining room table.
Here's the scoop on our video readings.
Please e-mail us to apply for AMP.
Also check out the Mudrashram® Correspondence
Course. It is for those who have completed our basic course in meditation—either the Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation or the Accelerated Meditation Program.
This is a comprehensive 104-week, 50 lesson meditation and consciousness studies program that maps the entire Continuum of Consciousness from waking awareness in the Conscious mind to the highest Planes of the Transcendental Sphere.
It is unique and unlike any meditation correspondence course currently available.
Upcoming Events
If you want to take and host a Master Course, you get the class for free. Interested in hosting? E-mail us .
Other Cool Stuff
Oh, we haven't told you? We've published our first new book this year, The Psychic Realm: Finding Safe Passage through the Worlds of Illusion. Well, it's been a little delayed—maybe we can blame this on a planet?—but it will be available on 3/8/10. You'll dig it!
We're publishing two types of books.
The first type is only available for those who have completed the Mudrashram® Master Course in Meditation or the Accelerated Meditation Program—it's called the Initiate's Library.
The second type of book is, well, for everybody. These books are listed in Books in Print. They are listed in the Library of Congress... and in good time, they'll probably show up on Amazon.com and in book stores. You can get them from us direct for a substantial discount over the retail price.
For more information on the books now available, check out Our New Books. Here are the books we have published thus far:
Our first book released in January 2008 was called, The Yoga of the Seven Mudras: Introducing the Mudrashram System of Integral Meditation. Volume One: the Fundamentals of Meditation. This book is part of our Initiate's Library. You have to complete either the Master Course or the AMP to get this.
We recommend it for those of you who take the AMP, so you can understand the course material better, and get a glimpse into what your spiritual cousins, the Master Coursers, are doing. Those who take the Master Course can learn about the program they took in greater depth.
The other book we released in January 2008 is called Meditation for Recovery: Key Techniques for Manitaining Sobriety, Sanity and Serenity.
This book teaches you about ways to recover from an addiction, and gives meditation techniques to help you in your recovery process.
A new book was released in August 2008. It's called A Mudrashram® Reader: Understanding Integral Meditation.
This one is a must have. It puts web articles, workshop handouts (you haven't seen these unless you've been hanging with us and going to the Light Sittings and workshops), and brand new articles nobody has seen—all in one place.
We released in December 2008, The Collected Poetry of George A. Boyd, volume one, and The Discourses of Swami Prem Dayal, second edition.
If you are a poetry lover, you will go flippers with this new poetry book! George has a way of using poetry to guide you into ecstatic states of consciousness and reveal mystical truths. His poetry will blow your mind!
If you are interested in checking out the early channeled teachings that George received from one of the Mudrashram® Multiplane Masters, Swami Prem Dayal, they are captured in our short volume, The Discourses of Swami Prem Dayal, second edition.
You can now order any of these books on our sister web site, www.mudrashrampublishing.com.
