Tantric Yoga as a Psychology of Enlightenment with Sally Kempton
Date/time:
Sat-Sun, Mar 27-28, 10 am - 5:30 pm
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Tantra is the science of aligning the human with the divine, and the
physical with the subtle. Offering one of the world's most sophisticated
practical technologies for enlightening the body, the emotions, and the
mind, tantra has had a profound influence on contemporary yogic practice
and theory. This workshop will explore the tantric paradigm for
enlightenment, both philosophical and experiential.
We'll map the tantric journey as described in key texts such as the Shiva
Sutras and Spanda Karikas. We'll work deeply with tantric techniques for
awakening, including processes for opening the subtle body; transforming
emotional states; and generating shakti, or spiritual energy. The workshop
includes sutra practice as well as meditation, contemplative writing, and
voice dialogue.
