About Intensives

There are two aspects of a Shaktipat Intensive with Durga Ma:

(1) receiving the transmission of shakti, and
(2) knowing what to do with it.

The Intensive

You will receive important information relevant to the special practice of spontaneous experiential meditation, and natural kundalini awakening.

Intensives include a massive amount of information on kundalini, chakras, lokas, granthis, yoga cosmology, stages of progress, special powers, etc.

Spontaneous shaktipat: You may receive shaktipat spontaneously at any time during an Intensive.

The Initiation

You will receive shaktipat directly from Durga Ma with your initiation into the spontaneous, natural meditation introduced in the Intensive: Shaktipat Kundalini Yoga (also called Surrender Meditation, Sahaja Yoga, Natural Meditation, etc.).

This initiation is optional, and is open to Intensive participants only.

 

Meditate Like a Master

In addition to receiving shaktipat directly from Durga Ma, you receive initiation into an uncommon spiritual practice, a form of meditation that is extremely rare and difficult to come by — the authentic meditation of ancient spiritual masters that is the key to making the fullest use of shaktipat diksha (shaktipat deeksha, shaktipat initiation). It is this aspect of Durga Ma’s Intensives that is so unique.

Through this spiritual practice, you will have the means to allow shakti the freedom to act according to its own natural intelligence and bring about spontaneous meditation, natural kundalini awakening, and spiritual evolution.

 

Natural Meditation and Kundalini Awakening

In Durga Ma's teaching lineage, Shaktipat Kundalini Yoga is initiated by means of shaktipat, the transmission of shakti by an empowered spiritual master, by which natural meditation and kundalini awakening may be achieved spontaneously.

The many meditation techniques available today have their origin in this natural process. In ancient times, people were observed to spontaneously enter into the meditative state and experience union with God/Truth. Observers tried to duplicate what they saw in order to get the same results, and meditation techniques were born. Many of these techniques have survived into our own time. They appear in religions and spiritual practices of all kinds throughout various cultures of the world.

A technique is a certain way of doing something in order to get a certain result. The process of trying to achieve spiritual advancement through techniques is certainly possible, but it is long and demanding. It is possible to take another road which, though less traveled, can take you with speed and efficiency to the fulfillment of your spiritual quest.

Glossary of Terms

Shakti

Shakti is the Sanskrit word for the activating force of nature (prakriti). Shakti initiates all action. Shakti is often translated as power, spiritual power or initiation.

 

Shaktipat

Shaktipat means shakti-giving. Because shakti initiates all action, shaktipat is often translated as initiation.

Shaktipat is the transmission of shakti which initiates spontaneous meditation, kundalini awakening and transformation.

 

Shaktipat Diksha (dee-ksha)

Shaktipat initiation. Diksha (pronounced deeksha) refers specifically to initiation in the sense of showing, informing or bestowing something upon someone.

Shaktipat diksha then, means "shakti-giving initiation."

Shaktipat diksha may be likened to lighting one candle with another candle. Once the life energy in the body is released through shaktipat, the evolutionary force, kundalini, can awaken naturally.

 

Shaktipat Kundalini Yoga

Shaktipat Kundalini Yoga is a personal journey unique to each individual. Through the medium of shaktipat, meditation and the awakening of kundalini occur naturally. Through this practice, you can make the most efficient and effective progress possible, naturally and spontaneously.

This practice is also known by many names: sahaja yoga, natural meditation, surrender meditation, kriya yoga, samadhi yoga, maha yoga, siddha yoga, etc.

 

Kundalini

Kundalini is the evolutionary force that evolves the being to the natural state of timeless bliss and freedom

 

Yoga

Yoga means 'union,' union with God, Truth, the Divine. Yoga is the spiritual science of reaching this ultimate fulfillment.
