5-Day Workshop on the Divine Wisdom of Spiritual Transformation and the Bliss of Eternity
with Simona Trandafir
June 20-24, 2023
Presented in English in Sanpetru, Brasov, Romania
Transforming Your Life through the Grace of Kali
Do You Yearn for Transformation, Light, Love, and Wisdom? Kali Is Here, Waiting for You…
Join senior Hridaya Yoga teacher Simona Trandafir for the initiation in Kali, the Great Wisdom of Spiritual Transformation and the Bliss of Eternity.
Enter the sacred realm of Tantra Yoga, which includes spiritual mysteries, Eastern philosophy, traditional practices, insights, and, most of all, Love. This workshop offers an authentic initiation in one of the most renowned aspects of Shakti – Kali.
Kali represents the evolutionary principle, the force of transformation in both the human being and the Universe. She is Eternity, which at the personal level appears to be time broken up into countless moments. She is also known as Shakti Yoga.
Sri Aurobindo affirms that all who feel discontented with life or that their spiritual progress is too slow should invoke Kali, “because her strokes destroy the evil in themselves and changes it into power and truth, annihilate that which is crooked and perverse and eliminate that which is impure or defective. Without her, that which is made in one day would have taken entire ages.”
The wisdom of Kali helps us live each moment deeply, to enjoy life, because life is our gateway to immortality.
Tantra Yoga is a celebration of life and spirituality. It is a way of honoring the Infinite in the finite, a revelation of the sacredness of life.
Tantra is the magnificent path of intense energy that brings us closer to the Spiritual Heart (the Supreme Self). It cultivates and honors our sacred creative power through mantras, pranayama, asanas, mudras, concentration techniques, rituals and meditation. At the same time, Tantra includes devotional wonderment and exaltation towards the Divine Mother, Shakti, and the Divine Absolute, Shiva.
The Supreme Truth is Unique. Consciousness is the same everywhere. But, in Tantra, it is perceived and expressed in ten fundamental ways. These are the Dasha Maha Vidya, the Ten Great Wisdoms, and each is a fascinating and gracious guide to the sacredness and peace of the Self.
These Ten Great Wisdoms represent ideal aspects that are awakened in everyone to a certain extent. In Tantra, a complete revelation of all ten accompanies spiritual realization.
The Dasha Maha Vidya exist in us, and we exist through them. This workshop will help you become more aware of this truth.
