## What is Vīrya?

Our AST Technique - Tranścend by Vīrya 

Auto Self Transcending (AST) Meditation uses effortless bija-mantra repetition to enter pure awareness, akin to stilling the mind in deep sleep, but with full self-awareness. This ancient Vedic-Śramana practice involves two phases: inward (transcending) and outward (normalization), mimicking the restorative effects of sleep. It fosters neurophysiological balance while enhancing conscious experience. Benefits include improved memory, emotional regulation, and overall well-being.

Tranścend by Vīrya is our digital adaptation that integrates the traditional ajappa japa technique with neurofeedback and brain-computer interfacing (BCI) to help you effortlessly recall Pure Consciousness using your EEG data and subjective experiences. This sets us apart from traditional, ceremonial approaches that were popularized 60 years ago in the US. Our approach is also significantly more affordable, with a price of $250 compared to $400 - $2500 charged by other AST brands. However, we honor various brands, including Transcendental Meditation, Vedic Meditation, Sahaj Samadhi, Ziva Technique, and 1GiantMind. We aim to create an inclusive community, welcoming practitioners from all brands, and utilize a more contemporary, science-based approach to their daily transcending practice.

You have the flexibility to learn through our Wellness Partners over 4 consecutive days of training. Alternatively, you can opt for our in-home program, where EEG headwear is shipped to you, followed by 1:1 Zoom sessions over 4 days for personalized guidance.

### 5/5 — Game-Changer for Meditation

*2024-12-27*

I’ve tried Calm and Headspace, but Virya EEG blows them out of the water. It uses an EEG to give real-time feedback while you meditate, and helps you learn how to do transidental meditation. It’s like having a personal meditation coach, that can see inside your brain, absolutely nuts.

In just a few weeks, I’ve seen a huge difference in my focus and stress levels. Plus, it’s so satisfying to see your progress over the days, a feature that no other app really has. If you’re serious about meditation, this app and experience is a total game-changer. #Calm who?

I am beyond grateful for this App! Thank you Virya!!!
