Yoga Nidra 2011 Conference Announcement
Swami Veda took the opportunity during his closing remarks at the "Meditation for Pain Management Conference" (February 28th 2009), to announce the next Conference to bring together scientific researchers and practitioners of yoga meditation. The Conference on "Meditation for Sleep Modulation and Conscious Sleep" will take place in February 2011 - exact dates yet to be set.
HIHT Evolution
Please find below a link to two videos illustrating Swami Rama’s vision and the establishment and evolution of HIHT, Himalayan Institute Hospital Trust. I think that you will enjoy listening to Swami Rama and seeing the work that has been done and is continuing to be done.
AHYMSIN was fortunate to be able to collaborate with HIHT for the recent Meditation for Pain Management Conference and we, as a spiritual family, have benefited from shared knowledge through the years. The Guru blessing that we have all received is beyond my comprehension.

HIHT reminds us to “Love, Serve, Remember.”
Conference Day 5 (Sat) 28th February 2009
Swami Veda opened his lecture reiterating the role of emotions in suffering due to pain. Yoga meditation works on the self-regulating mechanisms inside us to prevent and cure pain. He then explained the concept of “dhrti” and its application in meditation. Tension blocks the flow of dhrti and the internal “energy injection.” To treat pain, dissolve the negative emotion and open the blockages caused by tension.
