About this event

Tuesdays, October 12, 19 & 26 | 7–8:30pm ET | $20 a session

Spanda, OM, Nada, Logos, Pranava: these terms denote the vibrational source energy that is pursued, lauded and extolled in diverse wisdom traditions.

In three sessions, explore the significance of vibration, sound and word as a central tenet of world contemplative practices, and experiment with Tantric methods of Kashmiri Shaivism that use vibration as a vehicle for entering unitive awareness.

Session 1 (Oct. 12): Listening with the Whole Body

  • Survey the role of vibration and sound in global origin stories and in contemporary science-based cosmology.
  • Utilize simple seated postures and Yoga breathing processes to fine tune sensitivity to subtle vibration.
  • Connect with the primal power of vocalization and sound described in Vedic, Buddhist and Tantric texts & learn how to apply it in your meditation practice.
  • Understand the physiologic underpinnings of the capacity of vibration to transform mental and emotional affect.

Session 2 (Oct. 19): Mind and Mantra

  • Speech, language and Meaning: a primer on the linguistic mysticism of Kashmiri Shaivism.
  • Mantra - what it is and how to use it effectively.
  • Remove deep seated conceptual obstacles and amplify personal power by exploring the seed mantras attributed to the chakras.

Session 3 (Oct. 26): The Ocean of Vibration

  • Learn to recognize and relax into the pervasive vibratory Spanda.
  • Practice radically simple awareness techniques suggested in the texts of Kashmiri Shaivism: The Vijnana Bhiarava Tantra, The Pratyavhijna Hrdayam and The Shiva Sutras.
  • Explore the profound teachings of the Kularnava Tantra, “the Oceanic Teachings,” of the Ham Sah mantra.
  • Use the breath to refresh your connection to universal energy.
