Chintamani means ‘transcendental jewel of consciousness’. It is the Indian name for the philosopher’s stone, which transforms our base nature by activating our highest potential. It provides the elixir of life symbolizing divine perfection, ecstasy, truth, beauty, love and spiritual freedom. Directly translated chintamani means ‘thought jewel’, indicating that the jewel is the mind. The mind will deliver to you what you think into it. If your mind is what Patanjali, the ancient author of the Yoga Sutra, calls sattvic, then your life will be truthful and expressing wisdom. Or as the Bhagavad Gita says, Yo yac chraddhah sa eva sah, “that what a man thinks with great conviction that verily he becomes (Gita 17.3)”.

OUR STORY

Gregor and Monica each began their yoga journeys in 1978. They met in India in 1995 both there in the pursuit of studying yoga. Together they created 8 Limbs, directed a yoga studio for 21 years, have published six textbooks on yoga and more recently their blog site, Chintamani Yoga.

They live remotely, on a mountain, surrounded by ancient rainforest and overlooking the Pacific ocean. Individually and together they offer workshops and teacher trainings from their home and all over the world.
