ENTER THE TEMPLE OF SHAKTI

“In essence, yoga teaches that Shakti is the energy within everything. And yet, there’s an aspect of Shakti that remains hidden until it is awakened through yoga or some other means: Shakti that specifically governs our spiritual evolution. This aspect of Shakti—or Kundalini—is the secret force that evolves your consciousness and opens the doorways into your soul.”

WITH TRANSFORMATIONAL GUIDE...

Hannah Donkersloot

For me, yoga is a way of life. It’s a journey that guides the Soul through the many layers of being, to the core of the essential self. During that journey, we begin to shed old skins and false identities, we conquer limiting beliefs and begin to understand just how powerful we are as a force of creation in the world.

Yoga is a practice that goes way beyond the mat, or studio, or retreat center. It goes deep to the center of the self and how we think, feel, act, and create in this world in every moment of our lives.

The practices and teachings of yoga have endured the trials of the ages and stood the tests of time and are still actively used today with increasingly awe-inspiring results. The power of a committed practice yields phenomenal results for the dedicated practitioner.

THE ALCHEMY OF TANTRA, YOGA, AND GODDESS MAGIC

Alchemy is an Ancient Science and Mystical Art shrouded in Mystery, Esoteric Symbolism, Spiritual Archetypes, Hermetic Teachings, and Magical Practices.

In essence, Alchemy is a process of distillation, purification, and transmutation in pursuit of the primordial essence, the elixir of life, and the Divine Wisdom of the “Philosopher’s Stone.”

Alchemical practices were aimed at the extraordinary, turning base metals into gold, creating immortality, actualizing sacred wisdom, distilling the first matter into pure essence.

When we look at the Alchemical Arts as methods for transmutation and purification, we can easily recognize how the processes correlate to the Spiritual Evolution of Human Consciousness.

The timeless hermetic adage “as within so without” reveals the greater work of the Alchemist. During this Alchemical Goddess Tantra Yoga Retreat we become the Alchemists of our Souls.

Our bodies are the laboratory. The elements of fire, water, earth, air, and space all exist within as Shakti.

The inner work is the process of transmuting the lower frequencies, transforming the dense conditioning of our past into the radiant light of the Soul.

We become the gold of our pure potential, enlightened by the Divinity within.

In this Journey we dive into the Alchemical Arts through the practices of Yoga, Tantra, & Goddess Rituals for healing, transformation, transmutation, and purification.

We will explore Myths and Archetypes in conjunction with Spiritual transmutation to liberate mind, body, spirit, and emotions for whole soul healing, purification and illumination.

THE POWER OF SHAKTI IS LIMITLESS IN HER EXPRESSION

Many of Most Powerful Deities Were Goddesses

"In a world of unfathomable mysteries, the vision of the goddess personifies the qualities that attract us to nature’s boundless wealth: beauty, power and grace. Throughout time, humans have perceived a personal presence behind the forces of nature and identified them as gods or goddesses. Prior to recorded history, female figurines, ripe with creative power, were among the first sacred objects fashioned by human hands. Ancient societies often found a dominant place for the feminine in their sacred lore. And many of their most powerful deities were goddesses."

– Krishna Dharma, Beauty, Power and Grace: The Book of Hindu Goddesses

WHAT IS TANTRA YOGA…

“Tantra is the science of expanding the consciousness and liberating the energy. Tantra is the way to attain freedom from the bondage of the world while still living in it. The first step in tantra is to know the limitations and capacities of the body and mind. Next it prescribes techniques for the expansion of consciousness and the liberation of energy whereby individual limitations are transcended and a higher reality experienced.” – Swami Satyananda Saraswati

FREEDOM, FLOW, & FULFILLMENT

Tantriks seek liberation through expansion.

Tantric practices are designed to realize through experience that everything is divine and connected. Tantra arose in reaction to patriarchy, dualism, and atheism.

A key philosophy of Tantra is nondualism, or the idea that “one’s true essence exists in every particle of the universe.” Practices include pranayama, mantra, mudra, yantra meditation, and ritual.

Tantra is the art and science of spiritual expansion and soul liberation. It is a path towards the ultimate freedom, knowing thy Self and Union with the Divine.

Tantra is many, many things, but Tantra is not a religion. It is a spiritual science with ancient roots that gave birth to many practices designed to free the practitioner from suffering, harmonize mind, body, and spirit, evolve one’s consciousness beyond limits and egoic constraints, and liberate the soul.

Tantra is a process of inner alchemy in which we continually refine and purify the essence of all that we are. This includes our thought patters, beliefs, actions, ect.

Most of us have been taught that Heaven is a place above and beyond this world. Tantra teaches us that Heaven can be accessed here on Earth, in this lifetime, in your body.

It’s a love story between the polarities, or dualities of the Universe. It’s marriage between opposing forces, a path to the middle ground, a sacred union where two become one.

In Tantra we recognize that everything is sacred and part of the one, infinite, cosmic soul constantly evolving through the processes of life, death, and rebirth.

In Tantra we know we are not separate from the Source of All Creation but are one and the same. We hold the Divine Energy of Shakti and the Divine Consciousness of Shiva.

SHAKTI

Shakti refers to Energy, Power and the Vital Force. Shakti is the Feminine energy of Creation. She is the whole of the Cosmos, all the elements, the stars, from the single atom to a thought wave, Shakti is the Divine Mother, the Earth, Nature, Prakriti, Matter, the manifestation of power that fuels the All of All.

Everything you sense, and experience, everything you embody and express, everything you dream and create is SHAKTI. Shakti transforms the light of the Sun into the foods you eat. Shakti is the lifeforce that beats your heart, fills your breath, and transmutes the prana of the universe into the powers that flow within and without. Shakti is the Goddess and she is also every Goddess. She is the energy that binds Spirit into matter and creates life anew.

Shiva is her Divine Masculine counterpart and symbolizes the Sacred Awareness, Consciousness, the Spirit present in all things. Shiva represents the unchangeable, immutable, unlimited Supreme Imagination, universal mind, Purusha. Shiva is the Eternal Witness, the Constant Presence beyond thought, beyond form, beyond time and space. Shiva is the omnipotent omnipresence, the everlasting field of awareness that expands beyond the cycles of life, death, and rebirth. Shiva is the pillar of Light. Shiva is the unending flow of wisdom. Shiva is the sacred presence of the Higher Self.

SHIVA & SHAKTI & THEIR ETERNAL DANCE

The Union of Shiva and Shakti is the Eternal Dance of Creation. From the micro-cosmic cellular level that gave birth to you, to the macro-cosmic scale of the birth of the Cosmos, the Eternal Love that is God/Goddess is all encompassing, infinite and absolute.

The paths of Yoga & Tantra are a journey of awakening to these Cosmic Forces of Creation. We practice to cleanse, purify, and transmute lower frequencies of energy that exist within the various layers of our being so we can awaken to and integrate the divine powers of our spiritual energy and higher consciousness. The path to enlightenment is an inner path of alchemical transformation in which we must become the masters of our inner domain, to properly contain, sustain, protect and direct the powers of our Divine Nature.
