October Meditation
Intensive with Shaktipat
Intensive with Shaktipat
Sunday 18th October 2026 10am AEST
Live & on-demand
Join us for a transformational Meditation Intensive with MM Swami Shankarananda & Devi Ma, live-streamed from The Ashram Mount Eliza.
This is an opportunity for you to step away from the chaos of daily life and connect with your inner Self through the practice of meditation alongside fellow seekers around the world.
Kashmir Shaivism, the philosophy of Consciousness, is the yogic philosophy for modern living. It is not only metaphysical but also practical. It gives deep insight into the nature of reality and also how to live your normal life with joy. We are incredibly lucky to have Swamiji’s expertise in this philosophy, with his book Consciousness is Everything one of the leading books in the field. In this retreat Swamiji will give a general overview of Shaivism and also closely analyse two important aphorisms from one of the main ancient texts. Among the topics discussed will be the importance of the mind to our happiness and the yogic process that we go through as we endeavour to discover and stay in touch with the inner Self. In the Intensive he will continue the theme of Shaivism by discussing Baba Muktananda’s favourite sutras, and his own favourite sutra. Any participant will not only experience the awakening at this retreat, but will get a fundamental overview of Kashmir Shaivism.
Programs are available live and on-demand replay until 1 January 2027.
Meditation Intensive
The Meditation Intensive is a powerful catalyst for inner world transformation. Shaktipat, or the transmission of spiritual energy, is at the heart of this tradition, and this day-long event carries with it a powerful energy of grace and self-discovery.
In 1976, Swamiji’s Guru Baba Muktananda instructed him to ‘awaken people just as he did’. Baba was referring to Shaktipat, or Kundalini awakening. Shaktipat is the awakening of divine awareness in the seeker by a Guru who has been given that power from his own teacher. Shaktipat leads to deeper, more alive meditations, and can make reaching states of meditation much easier.
Join a world-wide online community of seekers as we enjoy this special time with Guruji and Devi Ma.
‘A true Guru will have been instructed to function as a Guru by his own Guru, and he will have the power of Shaktipat, the ability to awaken the dormant kundalini energy of a seeker.’
