Join JIVANA for an 8 hour - one night retreat.
MAHASHIVRATRI FEBRUARY 18TH, 2023
It’s said that Lord Shiva burns through the veil of illusion
called maya
when he opens his third eye on this new moon.
On this special night of spiritual upleveling, serious spiritual aspirants are invited to immerse in the mysteries of Shiva at the private residence of tantric teacher, host and entertainer for the evening, Jivana (and special guests).
The night will run from 9pm to a little after 5am (sunrise). Our goal will be to stay awake with the spine straight to align with the astronomical phase of our planet. It is considered a night of tremendous spiritual opportunity.
The night will be filled with 8+ hours of good ol' spiritual FUN!
- What to expect?:
Hourly:
*Invocations*
*Wisdom teachings*
*Asana (yoga postures)*
*Breathwork*
*Mantra*
*Movement and sitting meditations*
*Non-altering concotions* (we want to stay alert and clear)
*Pool-dipping*
*Dance!*
*First-light (Dawn) Prasad (spiritualized food)*
*Special guests*
All of this to celebrate THE DIVINE and our inherited potential to fully realize ourselves as part of.
It will be a celebration but should not be viewed as "just a party". This offer is presented with the specific intention to attract only the curious who wish to expand their spiritual longing and discernment and those who have reached a place on their path where they wish to ardently strive toward the goal of tantra-yoga, liberation.
