SUMMARY:Navaratri Community Day & Spring Working Bee
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nAll welcome to our first SPRING Community Working Bee\nSaturday 5th October\nIn honour of Navaratri\, the twice yearly spiritual celebration of the nine nights of the Goddess\, Swami Karma Karuna & Anahata Residents will be hosting the 9-day online or in person Navaratri Sadhana & Navaratri Community day and the opportunity to transform during this auspicious time. Navaratri is a potent time for spiritual and yogic practices (Sadhana) to amplify their effects. \nAn invitation for our extended community to get together and lend a hand on some projects here at Anahata while reconnecting with one another. We have a thriving local tribe and we are so inspired by what we can do when we work together! \n“Serve\, Love\, Give\, Purify\, Meditate\, Realise” were the famous words uttered by the great Yogi Swami Sivananda Saraswati. These helpful tools for life can be seen as steps to help awaken to the higher consciousness within and around us.\nService is the action of helping others without expectation. By helping others you can ultimately help yourself. By helping others you can awaken joy within yourself. Seva is the Sanskrit word for selfless service and it means offering oneself wholly to a greater cause. \nKarma Yoga is the “tool” we use to mine the gems of our inner potential. It is the action that is done with awareness\, the action that liberates instead of binds. It is through selfless activities\, unattached work\, and loving service that one can acquire the precious gems of purity\, patience\, and humility. \nProjects will focus on grounds\, gardens\, and general maintenance.

SUMMARY:India Retreat 2024
DESCRIPTION:Tattwa Shuddhi Sadhana: A Journey of Elemental Purification\n\nRikhiapeeth Ashram\, India \nThe Tattwa Shuddhi course will be led by Swami Karma Karuna under the direct guidance of Swami Satyasangananda Saraswati\, the Peethadhishwari of Rikhiapeeth Ashram. \nTattwa Shuddhi is a dynamic meditation rooted in the Tantric Tradition. It is designed to cleanse and harmonize the tattwas or elements within the practitioner’s body. The process involves asanas (postures)\, pranayama (breathing exercises)\, the chakras (energy centres)\, mantras (sacred sounds)\, yantras (geometrical forms) and meditations. The course will also include theory and offer a well-balanced approach with practical applications for your daily life. \nThe word tattwa denotes the different principles or factors which comprise our embodied personality. Tattwa also signifies ‘that-ness’ and refers to the Reality which underlies our embodiment. The five fundamental elements that constitute the human body and the universe are Earth (Prithvi)\, Water (Apas)\, Fire (Agni)\, Air (Vayu)\, and Ether/Space (Akasha). \nThe word shuddhi literally means ‘purification’\, but in the context of the practice we can understand the word to mean ‘exploration’. Therefore\, Tattwa Shuddhi can be translated as a practice or exploration of the different dimensions of our existence to reveal what we are in Essence. \nRetreat participants will be introduced\, step by step\, to the different facets and stages of Tattwa Shuddhi. It is a process of exploring\, refining and expanding the idea of who we are by dissolving the imbalanced facets of the mind and unconscious conditioning which keep us locked in unhealthy patterns of being. The practice leads one to the stillness within\, bringing clarity of mind\, and receptivity; opening the practitioner up to the fullest potential. \nThe course is held in a traditional ashram environment offering integration into ashram life programs such as special rituals\, chanting and seva (selfless service). \n\nOption 1: Diwali: Festival of Lights Celebration & Tattwa Shuddhi Sadhana ~18 nights\n29th October – 15th November\n\nIncludes: Hotel in Kolkata\, Travel to the Ashram\, Diwali Celebration & Tattwa Shuddhi Program at Rikhiapeeth Ashram \nNZ $2\,995*\n\n\n\n Option 2 : Diwali\, Tattwa Shuddhi\, Ashram Immersion & Sat Chandi Mahayajna ~ 39 nights\n29th October – 7th December\n\n\nIncludes: Hotel in Kolkata\,  Travel to the Ashram\, Diwali Celebration\, Tattwa Shuddhi Program\, Sat Chandi Maha Yajna & Ashram Lifestyle Stay at Rikhiapeeth Ashram \nNZ $3\,495*\n\n\nAbout Diwali – The Festival of Light\n\n\n\n\nThis auspicious time of year\, considered to be the Hindu New Year\, symbolizes the spiritual victory of light over darkness\, good over evil\, and knowledge over ignorance. Associated with Lakshmi\, the Goddess of Abundance & Prosperity\, Diwali is a time for sharing\, giving\,and savoring the sweetness of life. Havan and Pooja are performed to open our energy to the universal grace of giving and receiving with equanimity\, to become selfless in our actions\, and to dedicate our lives to the benefit of all. On the eve of Diwali the Ashram becomes radiant with the light of thousands of candles representing how our own inner light becomes magnified when in the company of other luminous souls.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Sat Chandi Mahayajna – Celebrating God as the Mother \n\nGoddess Chandi\, a form of Durga\, is said to be the remover of negativity from the world. She represents the universe itself. This energy is invokedto dispel the negative forces that limit and contract us so that we may be fully open to the experience of abundance. This 5 day yajna celebration is dedicated to the Cosmic energy\, Shakti\, and holds the greatest significance in terms of the history and tradition of Rikhiapeeth. Started in 1995\, the Sat Chandi Mahayajna became a means of reaching out to countless families from the surrounding villages; to spread the blessings of peace\, plenty and prosperity in each home and family. Participating in the distribution prasad to thousands of villagers over the 5 days is the highlight of this festival. \n\n\n\n“Yajnas confer peace\, plenty and prosperity through the medium of divine energy that is invoked by mantra and ritual… It is not asana or pranayama or Dhyana…this is yajna\, where the mind\, intellect and intelligence have no role to play.  In this situation child-like innocence and spontaneity pay higher dividends than intellect.” Swami Satsangi \n\n\n\n\n\n About Ashram Life\n\n\n\nIntegrate the experience of Tattwa Shuddhi by immersing yourself in the daily activities of the ashram\, by practicing Karma Yoga / Seva alongside the ashram residents. The basis of ashram life is selfless service. The ashram lifestyle reveals to us how to become free from the dictates of the mind and regain control over our life. In today’s day and age this has become most relevant\, as the ashram lifestyle makes us aware of our immense potential and enables us to give that a constructive direction. We learn to direct and expand the mind by adopting the spirit of selfless service\, which in turn blossoms in our life as creativity and excellence in thought\, word\, and deed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nWe are offering 4 online Q & A & practice sessions & about our India Retreat\, check out sessions here [ONLINE] India Q&A\,  [ONLINE] Chakras & Tattwas: Hatha Yoga and Meditation Masterclass\, [ONLINE] Practice\, Presentation & India Q&A  and [ONLINE] Purification through the Chakras & Tattwas \n$950 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT is due at the time of booking in order to secure your space.\nEARLY BIRD: 10% Discount: Ends 25th July 2024 use code INDIA10\n\n \n\nBookings Close & Payment in Full due: 31st August 2024\n \nFrom 1st October ALL PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE\nCancellations received after 31st August and before 1st October 2024 are refunded 50%\nof full payment minus the deposit.\n \nA limited number of Scholarships are available.

By singing kirtan you are able to withdraw yourself from the body and your external environment.
