Celebrating Guru Purnima
GODDESS AS GURU
Think of this as a little half-day retreat or a workshop in advance of Guru Purnima (the next day) to assist in one's own exploratory observance and celebration. Although all teachers are encouraged to be celebrated, we will collectively explore the invitation to honor Goddess as Guru. The day will commence with ritual, satsang, readings and a little chanting followed by movement, breath, meditation, and contemplation practices. We will explore how to form sankalpas, create a guru mandala, develop personal sadhana, and then enjoy prasad during integration circle.
What is Guru Purnima?
It is an auspicious full moon (purnima) that celebrates the Guru principle and teachers from all times and dimensions.
Suggested pre-preparations for Guru Purnima 2024:
