Genuine yogic, vedic, tantric experiences. Transformation beyond mind 's limitation with benevolence. Everything comes from nothingness. We teach how to create a space of emptiness and to transform beliefs systems, patterns, conditioning, ego and identity into knowledge through experience. Let's shift from perception to clarity, from logic to magic, towards exploration and experience of a non-physical dimension of life. Spiritual path is experience of a non-physical dimension of life. Whatever is physical is limited by nature. Whatever is non physical is limitless. Spiritual path means from the bondage of boundaries to boundlessness.

What are your favorite Retreat Venues around the world

Koh Phangan, Thailand. The place and the nature there was stunning, with permaculture, simple bamboo hut, jungle view shala and everything gather to rebalance and strengthen the 5 elements we are made of. I was leading 200 hours course on my own and was teaching the whole program. Usually in 28 days but once the training was in 18 days, 11 hours a day. What a very intensive and transformative journey for students and for me. At day one, we are all stranger to each other, at the end, we are one, family.
