ENLIGHTENED INVESTMENT SERIES
Yoga for
Investing
|
|
This residential workshop explores some fundamental
issues with respect to wealth - its creation, sustenance,
and its enjoyment. Essentially, where does money come
from, how do we grow it and above all, how do we enjoy
living with money. This workshop has three parts to
it.
|
Part
1:
Handled by Vipul, the first part of the workshop would
focus on the functional and technical aspects of Investing
and will show us how wealth can be legitimately grown
using sound investment criteria combined with a properly
constructed, well researched, and professionally managed,
portfolio. We will delve into each of these areas in
some depth and provide guidance based on individual
investors nature, needs and preferences.
Part 2:
Here, Shankar will provide the inputs from the Indian
spiritual scriptures on developing a relationship with
wealth and understand its dynamic nature. We will also
explore whether the time tested Indian Spiritual Tradition
offers us some “gems” of wisdom and practical
processes to help us become and remain wealthy. Above
all, we will explore how right understanding of this
dynamic energy, appearing as wealth, can help us live
in state of prosperity and harmony. After all, what
is the point of wealth, if you do not have the health,
family or peace of mind to enjoy it?
Part 3:
Facilitated by Pawan. He will share his experience on
how Yoga and its practices can enable a positive mind
set that can execute clear and focused strategies of
successful investing and overall wealth management.
He will also bridge the “apparent” gap between
the contemporary view of wealth and the prescriptions
provided by the ancient Indian scriptures.
During
the workshop, delegates will also have access to Yoga
therapy / wellness consultations for overall improvement
for mind, body and spirit. The simple Hatha Yoga postures,
and selected breathing and awareness processes can be
practised by all and will bring flexibility, strength
and balance to our lives.
|
The setting for this workshop is Shreyas, an exclusive,
private and luxurious retreat which combines elegant
living with unobtrusive service of the highest standards.
A maximum of 25 persons can stay at Shreyas, which
is spread over 25 acres of landscaped gardens. Food
at Shreyas is a variety of Indian, Continental and
Oriental Vegetarian cuisine. Almost all the food is
freshly grown in its own vegetable, herbs and rice
paddy fields.

SHREYAS |
|
|
|
Shreyas
is a boutique retreat situated about 35 km from
the centre of Bangalore. Shreyas combines the
best of traditional and contemporary architecture
with the most modern of facilities. It is comparable
to the more exclusive 5 Star boutique hotels in
South-East Asia, in terms of design, aesthetics,
and service, comfort and general facilities for
recreation. |
A
little ‘gem’ tucked away in the middle
of India… …It is a perfect setting
for almost any kind of personal growth journey,
but most of all enhanced by the care and consideration
shown by the staff. They have been impeccable!
Truly they are Shreyas’ greatest asset.
Navita, London
Shreyas
is a little piece of paradise of earth. Thanks
to all of you for your kindness and your smiles,
you made my stay have a truly memorable experience.
Carole, Sri Lanka
Shreyas…epitomizes
a haven of rejuvenation …it is the perfect
place to relax, unwind, and “find yourself”.
It is one of the few retreats where you can forget
the stress of day-today life and rediscover the
simple pleasures that life can offer.
Asia Spa India
|
In
addition to offering the simple pleasures of life
such as a clean and quiet environment, good homely
food, fun recreational activity, Shreyas allows
you that much needed space to spend some time
with yourself in a private and spiritual environment.
We therefore request our guest to refrain from
meat, alcohol and smoking during their stay with
us.
