Full Moon Mercury Transit Meditation “Kirtan Kriya”
2019-11-12 19:00 - 21:00 (America/Los_Angeles)
When Mercury transits and it comes in contact with the Sun it enhances one’s intellect, communication and increases gaining knowledge. Together with the Full Moon this makes a very auspicious time for meditation and spiritual growth.
Experience “Kirtan Kriya”, often referred to as “SA TA NA MA” meditation, one of the most important meditations in Kundalini Yoga. “Kirtan Kriya” helps you master your tattvas, the five qualities that make up the physical world: earth, water, fire, air and ether. Each person has a unique constitution with a predominant tattva: maybe you`re fiery, quick to react or, maybe you`re etheric – not quite “of this world”. Each tattva reflects its own qualities in our behaviors, habits and constitution so establishing harmony is a must.
Practicing this meditation is both a science and an art. We will use Mantra, Mudra, Voice of Consciousness and Visualization to balance your Chakras and your Aura. The power of the mantra comes from the fact that it rearranges the subconscious mind at the most elementary level. It has the power to break habits and addictions because it accesses the level of the mind where habits are created.
Welcome a new dimension of being into your life, this meditation is for You!

10 LIVE Gongs Bath

5 Kundalini Yoga Teachers & 10 Gongs are coming together for a special 2 hour Sound Healing Gong Bath!
The Gong Meditation is a unique experience: “Your mind, your thoughts, your molecules, your existence psyche, electromagnetic psyche, has no power over this sound.” ~Yogi Bhajan. The sound of the Gong creates deep relaxation, releasing us from the torrent of thoughts our mind releases, and it stimulates the glandular system to a higher level of functioning.
The Gong impacts the body and its meridians. It releases blocks, reduces tension, stimulates circulation, balance the chakras and strengthens the Aura. The Gong changes the feelings that are blocked by cutting the thoughts that sustain and recreate the feelings. It is the only instrument the mind has no defense against. The sound waves bring the subconscious mind into a balance and meditative state, an effortless meditation and relaxation facilitating the movement of prana throughout the body and psyche.
Let go and let the Gongs do the work while you relax and receive the benefits. Join us for a transformative healing journey into self-discovery, go beyond the frequency of your mental imprints and limitations, and enjoy the deep meditative experience of the Gong.

Experience this beautiful gathering and unite with the truth during this event while you feel the flow of love and spiritual dialogue with Cosmin Mahadev. This important practice will join you with like-minded spiritual seekers to pray, meditate, and become one with the truth.

$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
On June 4th we celebrate the Full Moon and a Lunar Eclipse! This is the first eclipse out of the three in a row that are to bring important changes for all of us. Use this powerful energy and get healing with the Siri Gaitri Mantra. Certain mantras are to be cherished like the most rare & beautiful gems and this ancient meditation is just such a find. It is unique, and it captures the radiant healing energy of the Cosmos as a gem captures the light of the sun.
This mantra is called a Sushmuna Mantra. It has eight sounds that stimulate the kundalini to flow in the central channel of the spine and the chakras. As this happens there is usually a metabolic adjustment to the new level of energy in the body. The brain is also involved – the sound current balances the five zones of the left and right hemispheres of the brain to activate the Neutral Mind.
Siri Gaitri Mantra also gives you the opportunity to offer a healing prayer for someone in need; when the prayer comes from the heart it is timeless, spaceless and absolutely effective – it can heal anyone anywhere.
In many traditions healing is said to occur when you raise your vibration into Divine Alignment. According to the Law of Attraction, healing must occur if your vibration matches it. The Siri Gaitri Mantra is a wonderful & effective way of raising your vibration to the frequency of Divine Healing.
Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong after the meditation!

Full Moon Meditation to Break the Hypnotic Trance
2020-08-02 12:00 - 14:00
$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
Humanity is going through a global transition into the Aquarian Age and one of the biggest challenges on this spiritual journey is breaking the Piscean Hypnotic Trance. For thousands of years humankind has been under the hypnotic state of the ego – we believe the illusion that our identity is found within our ego – the “false” Self: bodies, thoughts, roles, belief systems, emotions and feelings. We forgot our true identity, we forgot that we are Spirit having a human experience!
The Aquarian Age is dawning and there is a great awakening sweeping the planet right now. We are coming out of a deep sleep. This is the great age of Truth when humanity will move away from the darkness of the ego to remember their true identity. The ancients have said that this time is a rare opportunity and is the best time to be alive on the planet right now.
Any shadows, fears, blocks must be swept away so that the clear light of consciousness can shine through. We have to break from our Piscean Hypnotic Trance and recharge for the Aquarian Age. The only thing which will survive in this Age is a person who has the power to self propel, otherwise you will be eaten up by your own insanity. There is no way out. The Heavens have changed, Earth has no option.

The Great Conjunction Winter Solstice Meditation
2020-12-21 20:00 - 22:00
$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
This year the Winter Solstice comes with a very special and important celestial event: the great conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn. Each one of these two special events bring about auspicious energy that can be used for spiritual growth and enlightenment.
Winter Solstice is the great stillness before the rebirth of the sun and is believed to bear a powerful energy for regeneration, renewal and self-reflection. It is a time to rest and reflect as the light of the Sun begins a new solar cycle. Symbolically, the solstice is a time of turning inward, into the depths of the unknown and is connected to the personal awakening, an opportunity for human consciousness to blossom.
The great conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn will offer a unique visual, a double planet effect as they will appear very close to each other in the sky. Jupiter is the planet associated with abundance and limitless expansion, offering opportunities and abundance, optimism and clarity in life. Jupiter represents blessings, spiritual insights, and new ways of seeing things.
Saturn is restrictive and represents rules, regulations and the traditional ways of doing things. Saturn wants us to grow and evolve therefore it asks you to be disciplined and to do your spiritual work. Is it also considered the Lord of Karma: by working through the lessons of Saturn, we are able to clear our karmic debts.
Together Jupiter and Saturn combine expansive and imaginative vision with the structure and discipline needed to both manifest results as well as strip away the inessential.
Join us for a free community event with special teachings, Kundalini Yoga, Pranayam and Meditations to fully immerse and connect to the energy of this special day.

Full Moon Meditation to Heal a Broken Heart
2021-01-28 19:00 - 21:00
$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
Each one of us has had our hearts broken through betrayal, hurt and disappointment. It is just part of the human experience. A broken heart is a real thing, don’t try to ignore it or repress it, it will just get worse and hurt even more.
Thursday, January 28th we`ll meditate for healing a broken heart, releasing grief and any other stuck or suppressed emotions. If you feel your heart is closed and there is no flow of love, if you want to open, relax and renew your heart, come do this meditation.
Opening of your heart center cavity is opening up to your own Infinity. This center is sometimes referred to as the Agan Granthi—the place from which all fire-related activities spring—food, digestion, breath, to name a few. When this center is locked, your ribcage is out of placement, shoulders are caved in, you experience upper back pain, pain behind your heart chakra or you are unable to receive love from others. Heal your Heart so you can receive love without fear, anger or resentment.
The truth is each day, each moment, each breath is an opportunity to dance in the arms of the Devine, to know Infinite Love. How do we prepare ourselves to meet this possibility and make it a reality? Heal the wounds of love and become one with Infinite Love!
All spiritual practice’ effect multiplies a thousand fold under the full moon.

Super Full Moon Meditation to Bring Balance on Earth
2021-04-27 18:00 - 20:00
$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
April 27th is the Super Full Moon and we’ll celebrate it together with “Hast Kriya” – a powerful meditation that renews the nervous system and can heal nerve pain and sciatica. If you do this Kriya for 22 minutes a day, you will totally change your personality. Power will descend from above and clean you out. Anger and obnoxiousness will disappear from your personality. Take this opportunity to clear and release all discontent!
We’ll use movement and mantra – “Sat Nam Wahe Guru” – a Jupiter mantra. The most graceful power and knowledge come from Jupiter. Jupiter controls the medulla oblongata, the neurological center of the brain, and the three rings of the brain stem. “Hast Kriya” helps people with obsessive-compulsive disorder heal and gain a new perspective and the balance that is so profoundly missing in their lives. It connects and develops a balance of the Earth and the Heavens.
All spiritual practice effect multiplies a thousand-fold under the full moon.

New Moon Meditation to Bring Prosperity Home
2021-08-10 18:00 - 20:00
$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
Tuesday, August 10th is the New Moon and we have the opportunity to experience a very powerful Kundalini Yoga Meditation for Prosperity! The New Moon is an extremely auspicious time for new beginnings: planting new seeds and putting new cycles into motion.
Prosperity is a way of living, a form of consciousness. When we relate to our environments from a paradigm of success, then we naturally attract opportunities that serve our highest good. Prosperity is all around us and within us: it is the ability to receive, organize, and use the resources we need to fulfill our highest destiny. We can ask the universe for what we need with confidence and allow prosperity to reach us.
The key to opening up this communication is through the control of our mental and energetic flow. When we have command over our perception and our projection then we can enter the stream of abundance. Prosperity is the special gift of the Neutral Mind. The Neutral Mind uses intuition and keeps a sense of meaning and purpose at the center of one’s life efforts. There is awareness about what is needed – what to do next, what not to do, and with whom to connect – for the inner destiny to blossom. Prosperity is not only about wealth or property – it is about fulfillment of your destiny, it is about clarity amidst distractions and diversions.
This meditation provides guidance, clears the blocks to abundance & fills your heart with gratitude and contentment: stop hustling and let the Universe work for you!
Immerse yourself in the healing sounds of the LIVE Gong after the meditation!

Full Moon Meditation "Antar Naad Mudra"
2021-08-24 18:00 - 20:00
$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
August 24th we celebrate a rare Blue Full Moon with a great Kundalini Yoga meditation: Antar Naad Mudra, also known as Kabadshe meditation. This practice combines a very powerful chanting and Antar Naad, the moving mudra: the cycle of mantra and mudra is a key to open all chakras & the flow of kundalini. The new awareness will give you authority to make the right choices to conquer the ugliness of life and you will be peaceful and secure. The moon is fully reflecting the sun’s energy creating an auspicious time for Kundalini to rise.
The Kabadshe meditation is a sensitizing meditation for the impact of the inner sound current. It is the base of all mantras. The esoteric structure of the mantra is coded in the qualities each of the sounds represent, and the rhythm that weaves them together into a coherent and powerful effect. Anyone who practices this meditation is granted prosperity, creativity, and protection against attacks. It gives new power to your words.
Humans are naturally accelerated on full moon; we are at the highest, use this energy to go inward, transcend the mind, and feel the Divinity within. The time of the full moon is a period when spiritual energies are uniquely available and facilitate a closer rapport between humanity and the Divinity.
All spiritual practice’s effect multiplies a thousandfold under the full moon.

The “Be in Flow with Your Highest Wisdom – Waheguru Wahejio” meditation blesses you and allows you the Grace to touch the innermost space inside of you and to merge into the flow of universal light. The effect of this mantra and mudra is that it tunes you into the Divine energy that is accessible to all of us. Yet to access this energy we must be in balance inside and in relation to the energy.
This meditation connects you “to the wider flow of the universe, both known and unknown. This Projection links the essence of your purpose to the greater minds and souls in the cosmos. Your message and needs are projected into them, and help and knowledge come back to serve you and complete your goal. It is a prayerful Projection for a unified response from the universe.” – Yogi Bhajan

New Moon Yoga Nidra & Gong Bath Meditation
2023-06-15 18:00 - 20:00
$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
Experience two of the greatest methods of meditation: Yoga Nidra & LIVE Gong and get renewed, rejuvenated and recharged!
Yoga Nidra is one of the deepest forms of all meditations, leading awareness through many levels of mental process to a state of supreme stillness and insight. This method has been known for thousands of years by the sages and yogis, and it refers to the conscious awareness of the Deep Sleep state. Yoga Nidra was taught by the ancients for the purpose of exploring the deep impressions or samskaras (past experiences that form desires that influence future responses and behavior which drive our actions or karma). They taught this so that sincere seekers can purify the deeper aspect of the mind-field, which is accessed in the formless state of conscious Deep Sleep.
While in this receptive state of awareness produced by the Yoga Nidra, the sound & vibration of the Gong is used to create an extended state of deep meditation in a 31 minute Gong Bath. The sound of the Gong creates a therapeutic relaxation that facilitates the movement of praana (vital life energy) through the body for healing and awakens the consciousness for transformation. It is a perfect union of consciousness and sound. Surrender the mind to the sound of the Gong and enter into the transcendental state of shunya (nothingness), where inner truth can be accessed and visions spontaneously arise. Let go and let Gong!
Please wear comfortable clothes & bring a light blanket (or similar) to cover yourself with.
The energy will be multiplied by the New Moon – an extremely powerful and auspicious time for new beginnings.

There are only two relationships you can have with your own mind: it is either a great servant helping you live the life you have always wanted, or it is your worst enemy hindering you from creating the future you desire!
95% of your life is controlled by your subconscious mind via programming, and limiting belief systems downloaded in your software by your family, education system, religion, and society in general. That means that you are really in charge of only a maximum of 5% of the things you experience in your life. You have actually been conditioned to grow into who you are and to live the life you do right now.
If you do not want to be a victim of your subconscious, then you have a choice: un-program all the beliefs that drive your behavior and make up a distorted reality.
“What you think you become”
Your subconscious mind is the key to success: understand it, clean it, and take control. It is your mind that has the power to stop you from living a fulfilling, successful life or sabotage you into a negative and unhappy existence.
Through the most effective and powerful tools from Kundalini Yoga, along with ancient Meditations, you can upgrade your subconscious programming. Just like you uninstall apps from your phone so, you have to maintain your mind clean and updated with the best version of the software to serve you.
Whatever facet of your life you want to change (health, prosperity, relationships, emotional, spiritual growth, etc.) you must use the power of the mind to re-design a conscious life that gives you contentment, joy, excellence, and awareness!
Let’s use very powerful ancient techniques along with being in the middle of mother nature in a special, secluded, and peaceful environment to shift you from an unconscious living to a higher frequency where you can access your true self and your highest potential!

Blue Full Moon Meditation for Intuition
2023-08-29 18:00 - 20:00
$30 IN PERSON, $20 ONLINE
A “blue moon” is a rare and magical time when the Full Moon appears twice in a month. This happens infrequently and it is considered auspicious and a blessing to enjoy this opportunity. The next phenomena doesn’t occur again until 2026.
The Full Moon on August 29th brings in a very complex energy that can be channeled towards spiritual growth, love and peace. As human beings we need an open heart and a keen intuition in order to navigate through these special times.
Dhrib Dhristi Lochina Karma Kriya is “the action of acquiring insight into the future.” This powerful yet simple meditation was first taught by Yogi Bhajan on the eve of a full moon. When practiced at this time, the effects are great as the subconscious mind is fully open to the vibratory action of the meditation. The pituitary gland is stimulated to secrete, which in turn opens and develops your intuition.
Honest practice of this kriya is said to impart many benefits: the power to heal with the eyes & with your hands, the ability to project your personality or your bodily sensations anytime, anywhere, and feel what`s going on. According to tradition, your words will have the power to penetrate deeply; you will learn to talk inspiringly and your words will always represent the truth of a given situation; you will always know the consequence of any sequence of actions that you start.
