This is the beginner's meditation course for the Ishayas' Ascension practice, also known as the First Sphere Course. During this course, you will get to learn the four primary techniques of Ascension. These techniques are incredibly powerful and effective at dissolving the root stresses in your nervous system and directing your Awareness onto the source of peace, joy and love within.

The course is designed for you to relax, rest and enjoy. There will also be additional inspirational discourses on the mechanism of how your mind works, what meditation is and what it can do for you, as well as discovering more about the infinite potential of human consciousness.

Aditi

After achieving many things in life I felt there was still something ​’​missing​’​ – I wanted to know what life was all about; who I truly was.

I learned to Ascend in 2007 and graduated as a teacher in 2009 and Ascension has allowed me to experience the magic of life in the present moment – beyond the limitations of the mind and I am passionate about sharing that with others.

At home, I am happily married to my gorgeous wife and the proud father of two amazing daughters.

In my work, I am a best selling author (with seven books to my name including one on the science of meditation), a business mentor and an entrepreneur.

And I am an Ishaya monk! My meditation practice (Ascension) helps me spend most of my day living in the present moment … and I am happier, healthier, more productive … and a better husband, father and friend as a result.

It’s an honour to be teaching this practice.
