Whispers of the Himalaya with Ajayan Borys

from BITEradio.me · host Robert Sharpe

Whispers of the Himalaya with Ajayan Borys In 1996 meditation teacher Ajayan Borys journeyed to the source of the Ganges River high in India’s Himalayas. Intent on self-realization, he discovered a deserted cave in a Himalayan forest and for two months lived there alone, meditating in silence, surviving on one sparse meal a day.  Through unexpected friendships with holy men, encounters with madmen and the Indian army, surviving harsh mountain conditions (including scorpions and mind-numbing cold), he was opened to the depths of the human Spirit—and to universal insights, the “whispers” of the Himalayas. Your listeners will love to hear about Ajayan's adventures and his inspiring insights born of the clash between the human ego and its striving for the highest of human ideals. Ajayan Borys has instructed and guided thousands of meditation students in North America, Australia, Europe, and India over the past 45 years. He is the founder of Effortless Mind® Meditation and author of several books, including Whispers of the Himalaya and Effortless Mind: Meditate with Ease. The host of Mind Matters Radio on Alternative Talk Radio 1150 KKNW, he teaches meditation workshops and retreats in the Pacific Northwest and the Himalayas. He lives in the Seattle area.
