Vishoka Meditation Retreat: Deepening Access at the Ajna Chakra
With Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, PhD, Ishan Tigunait, Shari Friedrichsen, Sandra Anderson, Greg Capitolo and Judy Moulton
May 24 - 27, 2024
The tradition repeatedly proclaims “Meditation does that which nothing else can—it introduces you to yourself.” This self-revealing power of Vishoka Meditation is what makes it so precious, and this is the capacity which unfolds as we deepen access at the ajna chakra. Learn more about the deeper significance of this gateway of consciousness, and how its discerning power can illuminate our inner and outer life.
In this in-person, experiential retreat, immerse yourself in the practice of Vishoka Meditation through daily personal practice, guided group practices, and inspirational lectures with Panditji and HI Faculty. Enjoy this inspiring long-weekend retreat in the company of fellow practitioners, and the vibrancy of the Sri Vidya Shrine.
This retreat is only for Vishokis—those practitioners who have taken the Vishoka Meditation Course —to deepen their practice. During certain sessions, we’ll have a separate concurrent advanced offering for those who have taken the Vishoka Meditation Self-Mastery Series.
