Spiritual people who do yoga ?

Do you have a certain type of yoga you either do from a dvd or on a fitness channel that has a very spiritual feel to it from either background music, how you do the moves, or any meditation within the program? If you do please let me know where I can find it. I do Namaste Yoga and I love it but I wonder if there is anything else out there. I do not want someone on a screen saying just do this move or that. I like yoga to be very spiritual. Help if you can!

In my experience, it's pretty rare to find instruction that emphasizes much spirituality, perhaps because there is always the concern about appealing to the widest possible audience, and therefore an avoidance of turning anyone off.

One dvd title I own is Dharma Mittra's "Maha Sadhana, Level 1".
To me it's noteworthy in being one of the few I've come across that includes some discussion/instruction in pranayama and meditation, but note, those topics are separate from the asana instruction, so I cannot say that you will find the asana portion anything more than "just do this move".
As to the actual asana instruction, Level 1 is good I think for a beginner, so if you think you are intermediate or more, you may be bored. I have not seen the Level 2 dvd.
As one reviewer noted at Amazon.com, the pace is somewhat "sedate", which may not appeal to some.

Perhaps you've heard of Jiva Mukti school/style based in NYC.
It is a style known for it's spiritual perspective to the practice of asana.
They appear to offer two instructional dvd's.
I have not seen either (tho being a Michael Franti fan, am very tempted to try "Power to the Peaceful").
The reviews posted on Amazon for "Transform Yourself..." seemed mixed, so again, you'll have to reach your own conclusion.
