Yoga of the Subtle Heart

In times of turmoil, uncertainty and global unrest, spiritual lineages recommend inspirational fellowship with realized meditation masters to remind ourselves about our true nature and the highest purpose of life.

A Himalayan Siddha monk, His Holiness Swami Vidyadhishananda, who is directly trained by Tryambaknath (Mahavatar Babaji) among others, has recently moved to the Grass Valley area. He heads seven spiritual institutions in India, and has been commanded to set up the holistic curriculum in Nevada County as the eighth institution in order to facilitate dissemination of authentic Himalayan indigenous knowledge in the West.

This is a rare opportunity to be present up close with a realized monk who is connected with the Sambhala teachings of Himalaya and Tibet, and listen to his saintly words of wisdom. His Holiness is a Sanskritist and a meditation adept from the combined tutelage of rishi sages and nath siddhas, and will share Vedic Sanskrit teachings on the location of the subtle heart (soul) - the seat of bliss and consciousness.

Experience Himalayan chanting, saintly grace and darshan-blessings at this very first in-person fellowship in the Grass Valley area. A blessing line will be arranged following the chanting and discourse. Registration is $15 with options to give Nonprofit donation.

Please email us at events@hansavedas.org if you need a sponsorship in order to attend. Partial and full sponsorships are available on a sliding scale based on income.
