The Jivamukti Yoga School NYC, located at 841 Broadway 2nd floor, in New York, NY has announced that Celeste Yacoboni will be speaking on November 3, 2014. Here is the announcement: There are as many ways to pray as there are human beings. As Rumi has written, “There are one hundred ways to kneel and kiss the ground.” Interspirituality is respect for all these ways, participation in the rituals of communion, and union with our divine essence in all forms and practices. Join spiritual director Celeste Yacoboni – who thinks of God as the Grid of Divinity that we are all part of – in an interspiritual communion/community experience as she shares from her new book How Do You Pray? and larger vision of creating a prayer field of unity that embraces humanity’s diversity. How Do You Pray? Inspiring Responses from Religious Leaders, Spiritual Guides, Healers, Activists & Other Lovers of Humanity. Sharon Gannon is a featured contributor. Click to register online. About the book: As we evolve, so do our prayers; as our prayers evolve, so do we. This is the evolution of illumination, the collective voice of the soul of the world. How Do You Pray? was born from a vision in which Celeste Yacoboni was told to ask the world, “How Do You Pray?” She reached out to leading spiritual, shamanic, scientific teachers, guides, and activists and asked for their response. Culled from those responses is an original and deeply personal collection of essays. Talking intimately and candidly about how they pray, these personalities encourage the reader to contemplate the intention of prayer in their own...TV Interview: Celeste Yacoboni on CBS KPIX Bay Sunday

Nonetheless, we are richly fed and inspired by the words and witness of others in their explorations and practice within...How Do You Pray Book Excerpts in Parabola Magazine
The Fall 2014 issue of Parabola is titled “Spiritual Practice” and features excerpts from the How Do You Pray? book. From the editor: FOCUS | From the Editor Spiritual Practice, Volume 39, Number 3, Fall 2014 As children, my brother and I were taught to place our slippers far under our beds each night. Our parents hoped that when we reached for those slippers the next morning, we’d find ourselves in a kneeling position and would remember to say our morning prayers. Why is it that engagement with the higher, the sacred, the spiritual, requires practice? Call it the veil of Maya, sleep, original sin, monkey mind, or ego, there is something within us that blocks us from direct apprehension of the divine. We practice to allow this something to find its proper place, to make room within us for the sacred, and also to remember to go beyond apprehension to living the truth, practicing the truth. Spiritual practice is universal yet culturally specific and widely varied. Nearly all humans pray. Some kneel, some prostrate themselves, others bow or sit or stand, praying silently or aloud. We chant, we sit in meditation, we pursue sacred dance, we go to mass, we fast, we tithe, we undergo initiations, we go on pilgrimage, we do yoga, we perform sacrifices and acts of kindness, and much more. This Fall 2014 issue of Parabola explores the world of spiritual practice with the guidance of accomplished teachers and practitioners. Our interview is with Mirabai Starr, a bright new voice in interfaith studies who as a teen lived at the Lama Foundation, where she studied...Mirabai Starr Announces How Do You Pray Book
