Fee: $225




Dear Seattle Yoga Arts Students and Friends:
  For the last year and a half, I have had the great and rare privilege of studying meditation and Tantric philosophy with Paul Muller-Ortega, who is recognized internationally as one of the world's most highly respected and renowned academic scholars in the field of Indian Religion and Hindu Tantra.  He was formerly a revered Professor of Religion at Michigan State and the University of Rochester, and his classes regularly filled to capacity.  I am thrilled to sponsor him in Seattle at the end of February, when he will present a journey into the core teachings of Tantric Yoga, which is the philosophical stream at the heart of Anusara Yoga.
  I invite and encourage you to take advantage of this very special opportunity to study with Paul Muller-Ortega, a true scholar, charismatic teacher, and outrageously inspiring speaker.
  Let me know if you have any questions!  More details below.
Much appreciation,
Denise Benitez

To learn to locate the thrilling inner current of divine Shakti, to align ourselves more and more with its liberative power: this is the true work of Yoga. When we cultivate a profound understanding that is made immediate and real by profound experience, then the great Eye of Wisdom opens for us. Thus we begin to drink the fiery nectar of Consciousness and our daily world becomes illuminated by the extraordinary.

In this powerful weekend immersion, renowned scholar and teacher Paul Muller-Ortega will take us on a journey of experiential discovery into the core teachings of Tantric Yoga. The focus will be the fundamental principles of Svatantra: the Tantric teaching of the ultimate freedom of Consciousness, as well as a simple set of practices that will help us incorporate these principles into daily life. During the weekend we will meditate, chant, and delve deeply into essential themes including:

· How can I attune myself to the inner pulsation of the Shakti?
· How can I transform and transmute suffering into bliss?
· What is adult spirituality?
· How can I release energies of contraction and limitation that may be blocking
me from having deeper and more profound experience?
· How can I make every day an occasion for growth, service and fulfillment?
· How can my spiritual practices make a real contribution to the enlightenment
of the planet?

Whether you already practice Yoga and meditation, or are simply interested in learning more about the path of spiritual growth, join Professor Muller-Ortega for this dynamic and inspiring weekend experience.
