Charles Berner (Yogeshwar Muni) born 1929 in CA, USA. He passed on in 2007 in Merimbula, NSW Australia. He was a dedicated master of yoga and a master teacher of kundalini yoga (sahaja or natural yoga) in the Pashupta lineage.
On this website you will find his writings (see below), tributes, information about his last days, his final ceremony and his life story and yogic sadhana related in a detailed slide show.
He began his study of science, metaphysics and scripture as a child. In his quest for the truth he visited many spiritual teachers and experimented with many spiritual growth paths.
He created the Institute of Ability, Mind Clearing Programs, and the Enlightenment Intensive, a process that is used today world-wide to seek the truth by conscious, direct knowledge, He left his students with copious notes on the path of yogic sadhana, thanks to the countless satsangas he offered as a master teacher.
In 1973 after twenty five years of searching, he met Swami Kripalvananda while on a pilgrimage to India and received shaktipat initiation from him. In due course, Swami Kripalvananda bestowed upon him the highest yogic teachings and initiations.
In response to Kripalvananda's Birthday Discourse in 1978 Yogeshwar created a course of study in Energy Mastery and Holistic Yoga.
Charles Berner as Yogeshwar Muni kept up a rigorous schedule of meditation of eight hours a day since his initiation as well as teaching his own students. He has taught and written extensively on Natural Meditation and yogic scripture.
He developed the Lila Paradigm from his direct knowledge of the Truth underlying the fundamental principles of the universe. In collaboration with Dr. Biljana Percinkova of the South East European University in Skopje, Macedonia, they verified his theory with scientific proofs.
He is responsible for the carefully rendered English edition of Yogacharya Kripalvananda's Revealing the Secret, Commentary on The Small Burning Lamp of Sun-Moon Yoga, thus giving serious aspirants who are not familiar with the traditional cultures of ancient and modern India access to the esoteric realm of Sun-Moon Yoga.
Charles Berner passed away on June 24, 2007, at his home in Merimbula, New South Wales, Australia, surrounded by his close and devoted students. You can read tributes to him online and view a memorial slide show of his final ceremony.
