SUMMARY:Tantra Retreat: The Meeting Between Devotion and Knowledge
DESCRIPTION:6-Day Advanced Tantra Retreat – The Meeting Point Between Devotion and Knowledge\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a transformative 6-day journey into the heart of Tantra\, where love\, devotion\, and knowledge unite. This retreat blends the intensity of devotion (Shakti) with the peaceful consciousness of detachment (Shiva)\, drawing from key tantric texts and yogic teachings. Through meditations\, lectures and hatha yoga practices\, we’ll deepen our understanding of Tantra as both a path of love and knowledge. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nTantra is often described as the path of love\, and throughout the retreat\, we will engage in practices that help deepen your devotion to a spiritual ideal\, our relationships with loved ones\, friends\, family\, a deity and community. Through a variety of exercises\, meditations\, and lectures\, you’ll explore how growth in love leads to spiritual growth and fulfilment. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nOn the other hand\, Tantra is also a path of knowledge\, guiding us toward higher consciousness\, inner detachment\, and lasting peace. We will draw inspiration from traditions like Ramana Maharishi’s method of self-inquiry (“Who am I?”)\, helping us connect with the liberating wisdom of Tantra by observing inner silence and practicing non-attachment. \n\n\n\n\n\nMany practitioners find themselves inclined towards one aspect of Tantra – either the path of Jnana (knowledge) or that of Bhakti (devotion) – without integrating the other. Some become highly centered and detached but lack emotional richness\, while others dive deeply into devotion and intensity but may feel ungrounded or scattered. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nIn this retreat\, we seek to synthesise these two wings: the vibrant energy of love and devotion (Shakti) with the peaceful\, centered consciousness (Shiva). Our teachings are drawn from key tantric scriptures such as the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra\, Tantraloka\, and Shiva Sutras\, which emphasise knowledge\, as well as texts like the Bhakti Sutras and Sundarya Lahari\, which awaken the heart’s devotion. \n\n\n\n\n\nWho is this retreat for?\n\n\n\n\n\nThis retreat is for everyone seeking an authentic tantric experience. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced yogi\, you will benefit from the teachings and practices offered here. Beginners will have the chance to awaken their inner aspiration and discover Tantra through its two most essential perspectives\, while advanced practitioners can deepen their understanding and refine their practice \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDaily Schedule\n\n\n\nA usual day at the Immersion would look like this: \n\n\n\n08:00 Hatha Yoga & Meditation for Emotional Healing09:30 Breakfast10:30 Lectures and workshop exercises13:00 Lunch break16:30 Lectures\, practice and special workshop exercises18:30 Dinner break20:15 Evening program21:30 Program ends \n\n\n\nPlease note that the schedule might change according to group size or other factors. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPractical details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFebruary 7 – 12\, 2024 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAmrita Integral Yoga Centre\, a beautiful retreat centre built in accordance with the principles of sacred architecture\, and located in Mae On\, 40 minutes drive from Chiang Mai.
