Description: handswan.jpg2nd Foundation Course in Yoga Psychology

11th March to 11th April, 2014

Conducted by

Centre for Indian Psychology

Context

Today, across the globe, yoga has been accepted and acknowledged as a potent means to help restore and enhance physical, emotional and psychological well-being. Traditionally however, its role extended far beyond its therapeutic nature. It served primarily as a rigourous and time-tested tool for Self-knowledge and self-development. Hence, in order to acquire a deeper appreciation of the Yogic tradition, it becomes imperative to explore its psychological dimensions that are significant and relevant in the present context in order to evolve a more comprehensive and effective system of psychology that can be effectively applied for self-management and self-development. In this backdrop, the Centre for Indian Psychology proposes a one month Foundation Course in Yoga Psychology which will be the first in a series of Basic and Advanced Courses in Indian Psychology.

Content and Outline of the Course

The four credit (60 hrs) course is planned keeping in view the philosophical, theoretical and applicational underpinnings of the subject as well as the need to situate them in the context of mainstream psychology. It aims to introduce the participants to the theory and application of the psychological dimensions of various streams of Yoga as expounded in the texts like the Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita and the Yoga Sutras. It will further aim at providing them with a foundation of the basic concepts and theories related to Consciousness, the nature of the Self, identity, various streams of Yoga; discussing issues related to knowledge and research in Yoga Psychology; as well as applying and working with some of the transformative aspects of Yoga Psychology.

Highlights of the Course

·         4 credit Certificate Course

·         Includes 2 Residential Workshops on Self-management and Self-development

·         Classes in the evenings and over 2 weekends

·         Experiential learning

·         Methodology involves: Lectures, Demonstrations, Practical Sessions, Sharing of Experiences, Analysis, Review of Relevant Literature, Interaction etc.

Foundations and Applications of Indian Psychology



Greetings from Pondicherry!
We are happy to let you know that Foundations and Applications of Indian Psychology has finally come out.
This "abridged" edition consists of 24 carefully selected chapters from Foundations of Indian Psychology, plus two new chapters. Each of its chapters covers an important aspect of Indian Psychology, and together, the 26 chapters of Foundations and Applications of Indian Psychology offer probably one of the best introductions to the field.
The first of the new chapters, by Anand Paranjpe, is about the typical Indian neighbourhood guru, and, personally, I think that this chapter alone is worth the price of the book, even if you have the first edition of Foundations already. The second new chapter, by Ashish Pandey and Rajen K. Gupta, is about another major aspect of IP, the effect of spirituality in the workplace. The full Contents of Foundations and Applications, with a short description of each chapter, can be assessed on the IPI website, at http://www.ipi.org.in/events/faip-announcement.php
Foundations and Applications is available for Rs. 401/- from Pearson's online bookshop at http://cl.ly/TTNN.
Pearson has marked it "For Sale Worldwide", and it can be paid in non-Indian currencies. Delivery within India is free.
Get it now. Enjoy the read!
Warm regards,
Matthijs Cornelissen
