New Moon Meditation
on the Divine Mother

Tuesday, April 9th, 6pm – 8pm

In lunar religious calendars, Chaitra is the first month and its first day is celebrated as the beginning of a New Year. This is the auspicious time when the Divine Ma Durga and its nine incarnations are honored during the Chaitra Navratri festival.

Through mantras, meditations and fasting one is said to get blessed by the Divine Mother and get health, wisdom, and prosperity. This festival also celebrates the victory of good over evil.

The principle of the mother is primal power, coziness, care and protection. A person who is in contact with this inner cosmic principle is without fear and has courage in all circumstances, even in the darkest times.

This meditation tunes into the frequency of the Divine Mother – the primal, protective, generating energy. It eliminates fears and fulfills desires. It gives concentration and mental beaming, power of action by removing blocks of insecurity.

The energy will be multiplied by the New Moon – an extremely powerful time for new beginnings: planting new seeds and putting new cycles into motion to start a new project, a new relationship, a new business, etc.

Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong after the meditation!
Room size can only fit 49, please RSVP now to ensure your spot.

Full Moon Meditation
for a Powerful Psyche

Tuesday, April 23rd, 6pm – 8pm,

Tuesday April 23rd is the Full Moon and you have the opportunity to experience “Kirtan Kriya”, often referred to as “SA TA NA MA” meditation, one of the most important meditations in Kundalini Yoga. “Kirtan Kriya” helps you master your tattvas, the five qualities that make up the physical world: earth, water, fire, air and ether. Each person has a unique constitution with a predominant tattva: maybe you’re fiery, quick to react or, maybe you’re etheric – not quite “of this world”. Each tattva reflects its own qualities in our behaviors, habits and constitution so establishing harmony is a must.

Practicing this meditation is both a science and an art. We will use Mantra, Mudra, Voice of Consciousness and Visualization to balance your Chakras and Aura. The power of the mantra comes from the fact that it rearranges the subconscious mind at the most elementary level. It has the power to break habits and addictions because it accesses the level of the mind where habits are created. It brings great insights through balancing the mind.

This was one of the first meditations taught by Yogi Bhajan and remains today as a foundation tool, being recommended even by Doctors! Medical studies found that “Kirtan Kriya”, performed 12 minutes a day for eight weeks, increased brain activity in areas central to memory and improved cognition and wellbeing in patients with memory loss and help prevent Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.

If you are willing to change and welcome a new dimension of being into your life, this meditation is for YOU!

Full Moon Meditation
to Prevent Information Overload

Tuesday, March 26th 2023, 6:00pm-8:00pm

“Information is not knowledge.” – Albert Einstein

We’re all seeking out ways to improve ourselves and ensure a healthy spiritual growth. In fact, there’s so much information available that it can be hard to process it all. Ironically, this information overload is often most responsible for one’s lack of progress. You have to go for the experience and not for the mere information available left and right.

The Age of Aquarius is here: our lifestyle is changing its sense of time, space, relatedness, and relevancy. The mind is changing its sensitivity, its basic frequency and functioning. The change is on levels of life at once. And it affects each one of us personally.

In the Aquarian Age there are no secrets! Information is available and in huge amounts. We are flooded with choices. “A man shall have, on the press of the button, forty mega-trillion units of information” – Yogi Bhajan.

We need an elevated capacity to make choices, that`s why we’ll do a Meditation to Prevent Mega Information Syndrome. The Meditation has 5 parts: for Creative Imagery, to Prevent Going Berserk, for Faith, for Penetration in Communication and for Making Depression Disappear.

Our future is now, and our presence is our purity. This new Aquarian Age is ruled by awareness, information and energy. Join us, get the wisdom, intuition and self control you need to go forward!

New Moon Meditation
“Thunderbolt of Shiva”

Sunday, March 10th, 2024, 11:00am-1:00pm

Join us for this powerful Super New Moon Meditation on a very auspicious day: Maha Shivratri, the festival celebrated every year in reverence of Lord Shiva. The word “Tershula” relates to the thunderbolt of Shiva (one of the Hindu Trinity of Gods): Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva; Shiva is the destroyer or regenerator, the ultimate deliverer.

“Tershula” is the three-pronged trident carried by the Adi Yogi, Shiva the first teacher of Yoga. This symbolizes he conquered the action of the mind perfectly and the qualities or forces that create our experience of the world.

“Tershula” can activate the self-healing process. This meditation balances the three gunas—the three qualities that permeate all creation: rajas, tamas, and sattva. It brings the three nervous systems together and it gives you the ability to heal at a distance, through your touch or through your projection.

Many psychological disorders or imbalances in the personality can be cured through practice of this kriya, and it is helpful in getting rid of phobias, especially father/mother phobia. Tershula can heal everything. This meditation gives the practitioners command of themselves beyond the minds vicissitude’s.

The energy will be multiplied by the New Moon – an extremely powerful time for new beginnings: planting new seeds and putting new cycles into motion. It is a perfect day to start a new project, a new meditation, a new relationship, a new business, apply for a job.

Note: during the event you`ll also learn a very powerful mantra to protect yourself from all negative energy: black magic, psychic attack, evil eye, spells, lawsuits, etc.

New Moon Meditation
to Fall in Love with Yourself

Thursday, February 8th, 6pm

Join us for a unique New Moon Meditation to “Fall in Love with Yourself” during this special time before Valentine’s Day. The phases of the Moon have a direct influence on human thoughts and emotions. Harness this celestial energy to journey inward, cultivating self-love and connecting with your inner Divinity.

Transformation in the game of love requires a complete reorientation to the rules of the game. In order to truly experience love, and union, we must begin living a new rule book. We have been trained to look for that one person – our soul mate – who can fulfill our longing, who can give us what we believe we need or want from a relationship. To truly love, we must first fulfill that longing within ourselves, with the Infinite, the love of God. Anything else less will fall short. No human being can fill that particular space – not even a soul mate.

Then, from that fullness of love, that union within ourselves, we can begin to truly love everyone. We can serve with equanimity all who come to seek solace, healing or forgiveness. We can love the enemy & the friend, and we have the capacity to sacrifice for others without losing ourselves.

Love is Love. There’s no condition. There`s no lack. Love can only be received & given from the fullness of the liberated heart. Free yourself from ego, so that you can know love and share it with all!

“Love is a creative energy, an experience of one’s Self within oneself.”

Immerse yourself in the Love Sounds of the Gong Bath right after the meditation!

Full Moon Meditation
to Open Your 3rd Eye

Thursday, January 25th 2024, 6:00pm-8:00pm

January 25th is the Full Moon, and we’ll celebrate it together with Indra Nittri Meditation. This meditation is believed to use the most powerful mantra: ‘Ek Ong Kar Sat Gur Prasad’. It is believed that through this meditation, every pore of the body becomes an all-seeing eye. In this state, the body becomes a temple, experiencing the Infinite, as knowledge and bliss flow through.

This meditation was taught by Guru Nanak to his second son, Baba Siri Chand, the reincarnation of Lord Shiva. His son became a great baal yogi. That is a yogi who does not age, who still looks like a young boy, even in his old age. It is said that Baba Siri Chand lived for over 160 years.

The mantra must be chanted in a sacred manner. After its chanting, maintaining positive thoughts and words is wise, as you will be in a state of manifestation. This chant is highly creative; anything said will be amplified and manifested with great force. In this state, offer your prayers and most positive visions for health, happiness, and whatever you desire in your life.

Indra Nittri meditation brings profound intuition to the practitioner. It represents knowledge that flows through the soul. This practice expands your ability to sense and foresee events, offers guidance, and helps in opening your third eye.

The effects of all spiritual practices multiply a thousandfold under the full moon.

New Moon Meditation
for Prosperity

Thursday, January 11th, 2024, 6:00pm-8:00pm

Use the auspicious energy of the New Moon to start your New Year off right; this is the time for new beginnings: planting new seeds and putting new cycles into motion.

Prosperity, like many other things for which we strive, manifests itself when we remember that God is within us. When we center our attention on becoming one with the Infinite, we become more present in the now; being really present in the now produces the consciousness, which creates prosperity as a way of life.

In the yogic tradition, practicing this meditation opens us to the opportunity to explore and recognize the bounty we already have. Not stepping up to the plate is a form of denial, and when we ignore our financial picture, we also put at risk our essence, our skills and talents, our beauty, consciousness, and capabilities – everything about ourselves that is really essential to a life of true abundance, prosperity, and wealth. It is when we begin to acknowledge what and who we are and what we have that the Universe opens itself to us, and we can reap its vast rewards.

“If God has written with His own hands that you shall live under misfortune, then by doing Subagh Kriya you can turn your misfortune into prosperity, fortune, and good luck.” – Yogi Bhajan

Stop hustling and let prosperity reach you!

Full Moon Meditation
for Forgiveness

Tuesday, December 26th, 6pm – 8pm

Join us for the last Full Moon of this year, an auspicious time to make a big step on your Spiritual Path: Forgive and be Forgiven. It is a fact that you can`t walk on a path of light without getting “past the past”.

To forgive is most literally, to forth-give, in other words, to move forward. Life presents many opportunities to forgive others, as well as yourself, for mistakes made in the past. Unforgiven issues often prevent wonderful things in your life from coming to fruition. You`re actually using the energy in the “wrong” direction. Learn to let go and move on to enjoy life!

While working on forgiveness, it is common to realize that part of our journey requires us to also forgive ourselves. Forgiveness is an acceptance of the past: you call back all your energy from the past so that you can create in the present.

Experience the amazing miracle of forgiveness, allow your heart to be free of guilt, resentment, judgments and hate!

“The power of forgiveness transcends time and space and allows us to move forward with ease and confidence.  As we forgive ourselves, forgive others and receive forgiveness, our hearts open to the light and love within.” – Yogi Bhajan

Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong right after the meditation!

Come and be part of a profoundly impactful full moon meditation experience, a wonderful chance to release karmic ties, embrace the future, and prepare for the upcoming year. Match these auspicious times with a great ancient meditation “for the Arcline & to clear the Karmas” – a hand of prayer to control the psyche and elevate you.

Known as the Halo – the Arcline extends from earlobe to earlobe, across the hairline and brow. This is your projection, your radiance, your command center. It gives you the ability to focus, to concentrate, and to meditate.  A brilliant arcline is recognized by many cultures as the mark of a realized transcendent consciousness.

The Karmas are the results of choices and attachments and come from actions that are not done in the care free service and rhythm of the totality of consciousness. The Karmas have come from fear and from identifying with the finite self and ego. “The Meditation for the Arcline & to clear the Karmas” enables you to gently erase the tarnished detritus from your arc line using a precise combination of projection, sound current and mudra movement typical of the multi-sensory mode of a Kundalini Yoga kriya.

Erase the akashic record of cause and effect and through meditation stand redeemed! The balance we achieve accounts for our exit from the planet and for our merger with God, or for our next reincarnation. Take a conscious decision for an easier departure.

New Moon Meditation

to Connect You with Your True Destiny

Tuesday, November 14th, 6pm

On this New Moon celebrate with us the most famous festival of the year: Diwali “Festival of Lights” symbolizing the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness. The festival spiritually signifies knowledge over ignorance, good over evil, hope over despair, making it a very auspicious time for prayer and meditation.

Through breathing, moving and chanting we prepare ourselves to receive the energy of the Divine which will direct us into our True Destiny. These sacred tools from Kundalini Yoga help a person to receive in a state of deepest love and humility, all that one needs to be successful and a pure channel of light in this Aquarian Age.

The “Be in Flow with Your Highest Wisdom – Waheguru Wahejio” meditation blesses you and allows you the Grace to touch the innermost space inside of you and to merge into the flow of universal light. The effect of this mantra and mudra is that it tunes you into the Divine energy that is accessible to all of us.  Yet to access this energy we must be in balance inside and in relationship to the energy.

This meditation connects you “to the wider flow of the universe, both known and unknown. This Projection links the essence of your purpose to the greater minds and souls in the cosmos.  Your message and needs are projected into them, and help and knowledge come back to serve you and complete your goal.  It is a prayerful Projection for a unified response from the universe.” – Yogi Bhajan

Full Moon Blue Gap Meditation

Thursday, October 26th, 6pm

Special times require special tools: we are currently going through a grey period, a time of an epochal transition of the planet into the Aquarian Age. The gap between the past Piscean base informational wave and the current Aquarian base vibrational consciousness frequency is constantly growing. All these changes clearly reflect in the whole world around us.

Old teachings describe this gap as the “Blue Gap” – a state of conditions that are adopted as stress responses to these exceptional times, such as increased mental illness, sensitivity, stimulation and a tendency towards isolation. It is increasingly hard to relate to the “younger” generations.

“In our human relativity, in our sensitivity, our mental projection and our mental activity, there’s going to be a great change. It is very essential for the human race to be watchful, to be creative and to be equipped with a positive channelizing method for mental energy. There will be new changes and new trends in the human race. It’s a fundamental, basic change which is happening.” – Yogi Bhajan

Practice of this meditation helps us relate to the newest generation, and sense everything “clear, calm and quiet.” Overflow with energy, touch the hearts of others and fill their emptiness!

Your energy will be at its highest – use it to go inward, transcend the mind, and feel the Divinity within. The time of the full moon is a period when spiritual energies are uniquely available and facilitate a closer rapport between humanity and the Divinity!

Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong right after the meditation!

During this time Durga the Goddess of Valor, Lakshmi the Goddess of Wealth and Saraswati the Goddess of Knowledge are worshipped as three different manifestations of Shakti, or cosmic energy.

By meditating on it one can obtain a deeper understanding of the constant interplay between the manifest and the unmanifest qualities of the cosmos and consciousness. This powerful mantra belongs to all women to call upon any time: “When women knew this mantra, she was a living goddess.” – Yogi Bhajan

When a woman chants this mantra the Universal Energy will serve her. Break the barrier of intellect – let your heart open up to Infinity. Nothing can come between Atma (Soul) and Paramatma (Universal Soul) when there`s Love!

This meditation can eliminate fear and fulfill the longings of the heart. It gives you the power to act by removing the insecurities that block action.

Full Moon Meditation
to Make the Impossible Possible

Thursday, September 28, 6pm – 8pm PST

Join us for the Full Moon Meditation on this auspicious day, concluding the festival celebrating Lord Ganesha’s Birthday!

This beautiful and powerful meditation has a history in its name. The ancient symbol for this was the Hindu God of Wisdom, Prosperity, Happiness and Good Fortune – Ganesha. The other name for Ganesha is Gunpati. Ganesha was depicted as a rotund man with the head of an elephant. This huge body balances and rides on a rat, conveying the message that even the impossible can be done with this meditation. The rat represents the quality of penetration. A rat can get in almost any place.

Lord Ganesha can know anything and can get past any blockages. Wisdom and wise choices grant you happiness in your life. The impact of this meditation is to clear the blocks from your own karma. Each of us has three regions of life to conquer: the past which is recorded in our samskaras and which brings us the challenges and blessings of fate are balanced by these sounds; the present which must be mastered by karma yoga, the practice of action with integrity in the moment; and the future, recorded in the ether and, which at its best and most fulfilled, is called dharma.

This meditation allows you to let go of the attachments to the mind and to the impact of past actions so you can create and live a fulfilled life and a perfect future.

All spiritual practice’s effect multiplies a thousandfold under the full moon.

New Moon Meditation
to Heal Anxiety and Remove Fear

Thursday, September 14, 6pm – 8pm, $30 IN-PERSON, $20 ONLINE

Start the New Moon the right way: tame your runaway nerves, anxiety & fears with an ancient Kundalini Meditation.

Fear and anxiety are feelings everyone experiences at some point, especially during these special times.  However, if these feelings persist, we start to react physiologically, the breath becomes irregular and can cause panic attacks, sweating or heart palpitations.  If we are anxious over a longer period of time, the body gets into the habit of having an automatic mental and physiological response. Without regular exercise and meditation, these negative thought patterns firmly establish themselves into our subconscious mind and deep within the cells of our body.

With the transition into the Aquarian Age there are a lot of changes taking place and this is creating a lot of fear in people. Anyone who has been following the news lately knows we are living in an uncertain future and the world can seem like utter chaos without hope or a future. Every person on planet Earth is affected by this shift. This shift is bringing out the best and the worst in mankind.

It is up to you how you handle this: you can live with anxiety & fear or you can do something about it! Empower yourself: accept, understand and transcend all your fears & anxiety!

The energy will be multiplied by the New Moon – an extremely powerful time for new beginnings: planting new seeds and putting new cycles into motion to start a new project, a new meditation, a new business.

Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong right after the meditation!

Room size can only fit 39, please RSVP now to ensure your spot.

Super Full Moon Meditation
to Open all Chakras & the Flow of Kundalini

Tuesday, August 1st, 6pm-8pm

On August 1st we celebrate a powerful Super Full Moon with a great Kundalini Yoga meditation: Antar Naad Mudra, also known as Kabadshe meditation. This practice combines a very powerful chanting and Antar Naad, the moving mudra: the cycle of mantra and mudra is a key to open all chakras & the flow of kundalini. The new awareness will give you authority to make the right choices to conquer the ugliness of life and you will be peaceful and secure. The moon is fully reflecting the sun`s energy creating an auspicious time for Kundalini to rise.

The Kabadshe meditation is a sensitizing meditation for the impact of the inner sound current. It is the base of all mantras. The esoteric structure of the mantra is coded in the qualities each of the sounds represent, and the rhythm that weaves them together into a coherent and powerful effect. Anyone who practices this meditation is granted prosperity, creativity, and protection against attacks. It gives new power to your words.

Humans are naturally accelerated on full moon; we are at the highest, use this energy to go inward, transcend the mind, and feel the Divinity within. The time of the full moon is a period when spiritual energies are uniquely available and facilitate a closer rapport between humanity and the Divinity.

All spiritual practice’s effect multiplies a thousand fold under the full moon.

Open your heart and lead your life from the heart! “The heart has the power of 108 suns. Whenever you pray with the head, it takes a long time before you see the desired goal. Your head works like a computer, and whenever you pray with the head, it is a very long, slow process. Whenever you sing or pray from your heart, it will be timeless, spaceless, and absolutely effective. It works. Praying from the heart is 108 trillion times more effective than praying from the head.” – Yogi Bhajan

Blue Full Moon Meditation
for Intuition

Tuesday, August 29th, 6pm-8pm

A “blue moon” is a rare and magical time when the Full Moon appears twice in a month. This happens infrequently and it is considered auspicious and a blessing to enjoy this opportunity. The next phenomena doesn’t occur again until 2026.

The Full Moon on August 29^th brings in a very complex energy that can be channeled towards spiritual growth, love and peace. As human beings we need an open heart and a keen intuition in order to navigate through these special times.

Dhrib Dhristi Lochina Karma Kriya is “the action of acquiring insight into the future.” This powerful yet simple meditation was first taught by Yogi Bhajan on the eve of a full moon. When practiced at this time, the effects are great as the subconscious mind is fully open to the vibratory action of the meditation. The pituitary gland is stimulated to secrete, which in turn opens and develops your intuition.

Honest practice of this kriya is said to impart many benefits: the power to heal with the eyes & with your hands, the ability to project your personality or your bodily sensations anytime, anywhere, and feel what`s going on. According to tradition, your words will have the power to penetrate deeply; you will learn to talk inspiringly and your words will always represent the truth of a given situation; you will always know the consequence of any sequence of actions that you start.

New Moon Meditation
to Heal Ancestral Karma

Tuesday, July 18th, 2023, 6:00pm-8:00pm

During this auspicious new moon we come together to celebrate the special Parents Day – in honor of your mother and father, along with all your ancestors in your family blood lineage. Karma operates not only individually, but also in ever-enlarging circles of group karma where we participate in the sum karma of multiple souls. This includes family, community, nation, race and even planetary group karma.

Within families there is a karmic inheritance that is handed down the family line along with the genetic blueprint. It is believed that the soul “picks” certain family lineages to incarnate into because it is these lineages that would provide us a tremendous amount of soul’s growth if we were able to break free from these patterns and it would also help our family lines break free from their bondage as well.

Each generation must carry forward the evolutionary trajectory of the family line, making the best use of the ancestral blessings and dissolving the ancestral curses. We share a karmic bond with us from seven generations in the past and seven generations into the future and it is our duty to consciously work on breaking the link and heal the lineage karma. Help your ancestors resolve their grief and pave the road ahead for the future generations still to come.

Heal your family karma and liberate your soul from any constrictive patterns to live your true life!

Clearing the Subconscious Mind
7 Day Meditation Retreat

July 9 – 16, 2023

RYK Spiritual Retreat and Training Center

There are only two relationships you can have with your own mind: it is either a great servant helping you live the life you have always wanted or it is your worst enemy hindering you from creating the future you desire!

95% of your life is controlled by your subconscious mind via programming, and limiting belief systems downloaded in your software by your family, education system, religion and society in general. That means that you are really in charge of only maximum 5% of the things you experience in your life. You have actually been conditioned to grow into who you are and to live the life you do right now.

If you do not want to be a victim of your subconscious then you have a choice: un-program all the beliefs that drive your behavior and make up a distorted reality.

“What you think you become”

Your subconscious mind is the key to success: understand it, clean it and take control. It is your mind that has the power to stop you from living a fulfilling, successful life or sabotage you into a negative and unhappy existence.

Through most effective and powerful tools from Kundalini Yoga, along with ancient Meditations you can upgrade your subconscious programming. Just like you uninstall apps from your phone so you have to maintain your mind clean and updated with the best version of the software to serve you.

Whatever facet of your life you want to change (health, prosperity, relationships, emotional, spiritual growth, etc) you must use the power of the mind to re-design a conscious life that gives you contentment, joy, excellence and awareness!

Let’s use very powerful ancient techniques along with being in the middle of mother nature in a special, secluded and peaceful environment to shift you from an unconscious living to a higher frequency where you can access your true self and your highest potential!

New Moon Yoga Nidra
& Gong Bath Meditation

Thursday, June 15th, 2023, 6pm-8pm

Conscious Deep Sleep & Sound Healing

Experience two of the greatest methods of meditation: Yoga Nidra & LIVE Gong and get renewed, rejuvenated and recharged!

Yoga Nidra is one of the deepest forms of all meditations, leading awareness through many levels of mental process to a state of supreme stillness and insight. This method has been known for thousands of years by the sages and yogis, and it refers to the conscious awareness of the Deep Sleep state. Yoga Nidra was taught by the ancients for the purpose of exploring the deep impressions or samskaras (past experiences that form desires that influence future responses and behavior which drive our actions or karma). They taught this so that sincere seekers can purify the deeper aspect of the mind-field, which is accessed in the formless state of conscious Deep Sleep.

While in this receptive state of awareness produced by the Yoga Nidra, the sound & vibration of the Gong is used to create an extended state of deep meditation in a 31 minute Gong Bath. The sound of the Gong creates a therapeutic relaxation that facilitates the movement of praana (vital life energy) through the body for healing and awakens the consciousness for transformation. It is a perfect union of consciousness and sound. Surrender the mind to the sound of the Gong and enter into the transcendental state of shunya (nothingness), where inner truth can be accessed and visions spontaneously arise. Let go and let Gong!

Please wear comfortable clothes & bring a light blanket (or similar) to cover yourself with.

The energy will be multiplied by the New Moon – an extremely powerful and auspicious time for new beginnings.

Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong right after the meditation!

Full Moon Meditation
to Bring Prosperity Home

Tuesday, June 6th, 2023, 6pm-8pm

Tuesday June 6^th we celebrate the Full Moon and you have the opportunity to experience a very powerful Kundalini Yoga Meditation for Prosperity!

Prosperity is a way of living, a form of consciousness. When we relate to our environments from a paradigm of success, then we naturally attract opportunities that serve our highest good. Prosperity is all around us and within us: it is the ability to receive, organize, and use the resources we need to fulfill our highest destiny. We can ask the universe for what we need with confidence and allow prosperity reach us.

The key to opening up this communication is through the control of our mental and energetic flow. When we have command over our perception and our projection then we can enter the stream of abundance. Prosperity is the special gift of the Neutral Mind. The Neutral Mind uses intuition and keeps a sense of meaning and purpose at the center of one’s life efforts. There is awareness about what is needed – what to do next, what not to do, and with whom to connect – for the inner destiny to blossom. Prosperity is not only about wealth or property – it is about fulfillment of your destiny, it is about clarity amidst distractions and diversions.

This meditation provides guidance, clears the blocks to abundance & fills your heart with gratitude and contentment: stop hustling and let the Universe work for you!

Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong right after the meditation!

New Moon Meditation for a Renewed Self Concept

Thursday, May 18th, 6:00pm-8:00pm

This powerful New Moon in Taurus brings heightened levels of energy with big potential changes and transit for the months to come. It is a very auspicious time to work on yourself and deeply go inward!

Whatever a child experiences and learns in the first eleven years becomes the foundation of the remaining of his life. The rest are just mere details that we pick up along the way. It is the birth trauma or being abused as a child that need to be released and healed in order to have a healthy and happy adulthood.

Ending an unhealthy relationship or a destructive habit, moving from a dead-end job or a harmful addiction are all forms of change and painful memories that we have to face ourselves in order to move forward. This meditation helps release painful memories of your childhood from day 1 to 11th year and allows you to shift towards a new, auspicious direction.

You will consciously dump the pain, mental garbage, negative memories, discomfort and disease of the past in order to heal the body, purify the mind and experience a wonderful sense of rebirth filled with peace and joy for a New You!

Full Moon Meditation to
“Fall in Love with Yourself”

Sunday, February 5th 2023, 12:00pm-2:00pm

Join us for a unique Full Moon Meditation to “Fall in Love with Yourself” during this special time before Valentine’s Day. Humans are naturally accelerated on full moon; we are at the highest, use this energy to go inward, transcend the mind, feel love and the Divinity within.

Transformation in the game of love requires a complete reorientation to the rules of the game. In order to truly experience love, and union, we must begin living a new rule book. We have been trained to look for that one person – our soul mate – who can fulfill our longing, who can give us what we believe we need or want from a relationship. To truly love, we must first fulfill that longing within ourselves, with the Infinite, the love of God. Anything else less will fall short. No human being can fill that particular space – not even a soul mate.

Then, from that fullness of love, that union within ourselves, we can begin to truly love everyone. We can serve with equanimity all who come to seek solace, healing or forgiveness. We can love the enemy & the friend, and we have the capacity to sacrifice for others without losing ourselves.

Love is Love. There’s no condition. There’s no lack. Love can only be received & given from the fullness of the liberated heart. Free yourself from ego, so that you can know love and share it with all!

“Love is a creative energy, an experience of one’s Self within oneself.” Yogi Bhajan

Thursday, July 28th 2022, 6:00pm-8:00pm

This New Moon in Leo brings elevated levels of energy teaching us to recognize and celebrate who we really are as humans. Let`s use this to go inward for healing ourselves, our communities, countries and the whole world.

Take your practice one step further with “Sudarshan Chakra Kriya” an ancient Kundalini Yoga meditation that gives you the “power to rotate the psyche of the universe” and lets you command your five tattvas for effective living. Through chanting and visualization this meditation brings mental balance, protection, eliminates enemies and blocks the impact of animosity.

Open your heart, lead your life from the heart! “The heart has the power of 108 suns. Whenever you pray with the head, it takes a long time before you see the desired goal. Your head works like a computer, and whenever you pray with the head, it is a very long, slow process. Whenever you sing or pray from your heart, it will be timeless, spaceless, and absolutely effective. It works. Praying from the heart is 108 trillion times more effective than praying from the head.” – Yogi Bhajan

Black New Moon Meditation
for Healing

Tuesday, February 1st 2022, 6:00pm-8:00pm

On February 1^st we celebrate a Black New Moon and the beginning of the Lunar Chinese calendar! These higher frequencies bring important changes for all. Use this powerful energy and get healing with the Siri Gaitri Mantra. Certain mantras are to be cherished like the rarest & beautiful gems and this ancient meditation is just such a find. It is unique, and it captures the radiant healing energy of the Cosmos as a gem captures the light of the sun.

This mantra is called a Sushmuna Mantra. It has eight sounds that stimulate the kundalini to flow in the central channel of the spine and the chakras. As this happens there is usually a metabolic adjustment to the new level of energy in the body. The brain is also involved – the sound current balances the five zones of the left and right hemispheres of the brain to activate the Neutral Mind.

Siri Gaitri Mantra also gives you the opportunity to offer a healing prayer for someone in need; when the prayer comes from the heart it is timeless, spaceless and absolutely effective – it can heal anyone anywhere.

In many traditions healing is said to occur when you raise your vibration into Divine Alignment.  According to the Law of Attraction, healing must occur if your vibration matches it. The Siri Gaitri Mantra is a wonderful & effective way of raising your vibration to the frequency of Divine Healing.

Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong after the meditation!

Room size can only fit 48, please RSVP now to ensure your spot.

P.S. – please bring a picture (or name) of the person you want to send healing to.

New Moon Meditation
“Synchronize with the Universal Flow of Light”

Thursday, November 4th 2021, 6:00pm-8:00pm

On this New Moon celebrate with us the most famous festival of the year: Diwali “Festival of Lights” symbolizing the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness. The festival spiritually signifies knowledge over ignorance, good over evil, hope over despair, making it a very auspicious time for prayer and meditation.

Through breathing, moving and chanting we prepare ourselves to receive the energy of the Divine which will direct us into our True Destiny. These sacred tools from Kundalini Yoga help a person to receive in a state of deepest love and humility, all that one needs to be successful and a pure channel of light in this Aquarian Age.

The “Be in Flow with Your Highest Wisdom – Waheguru Wahejio” meditation blesses you and allows you the Grace to touch the innermost space inside of you and to merge into the flow of universal light. The effect of this mantra and mudra is that it tunes you into the Divine energy that is accessible to all of us.  Yet to access this energy we must be in balance inside and in relation to the energy.

This meditation connects you “to the wider flow of the universe, both known and unknown. This Projection links the essence of your purpose to the greater minds and souls in the cosmos.  Your message and needs are projected into them, and help and knowledge come back to serve you and complete your goal.  It is a prayerful Projection for a unified response from the universe.” – Yogi Bhajan

Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong and the Song of Mother Earth right after the meditation!

Blue Full Moon Meditation
“Antar Naad Mudra”
Open all Chakras and the Flow of Kundalini

Tuesday, August 24th, 6:00pm-8:00pm

August 24th we celebrate a rare Blue Full Moon with a great Kundalini Yoga meditation: Antar Naad Mudra, also known as Kabadshe meditation. This practice combines a very powerful chanting and Antar Naad, the moving mudra: the cycle of mantra and mudra is a key to open all chakras & the flow of kundalini. The new awareness will give you authority to make the right choices to conquer the ugliness of life and you will be peaceful and secure. The moon is fully reflecting the sun’s energy creating an auspicious time for Kundalini to rise.

The Kabadshe meditation is a sensitizing meditation for the impact of the inner sound current. It is the base of all mantras. The esoteric structure of the mantra is coded in the qualities each of the sounds represent, and the rhythm that weaves them together into a coherent and powerful effect. Anyone who practices this meditation is granted prosperity, creativity, and protection against attacks. It gives new power to your words.

Humans are naturally accelerated on full moon; we are at the highest, use this energy to go inward, transcend the mind, and feel the Divinity within. The time of the full moon is a period when spiritual energies are uniquely available and facilitate a closer rapport between humanity and the Divinity.

All spiritual practice’s effect multiplies a thousandfold under the full moon.
