Beyond Becoming

2021 Year Long Programme 

3 Multi-Media Mini-Courses & Weekend Retreat

Three mini-courses comprise our 2021 Year-Long Programme. Each one is available individually or you can take them all and then join Gurudevi Nirmalananda for a weekend Shaktipat Retreat at the end.  This new format makes these profound teachings more accessible while still offering the quality experience for which Gurudevi is known.

Tuesday March 23 2021, from 7:00-8:00 pm (Eastern Time).  Plan to join Gurudevi as she gives you a preview of what's in the course and how to participate.  Click here to register for the free call.

Overall Theme:  Beyond Becoming 

Much of life is about becoming, applying yourself to growing, learning and building a bigger and better you. On the spiritual path, your efforts go toward discovering who you are in your innermost being; it’s not about creating a new you. Knowing your own essence, you live in the freedom of being instead of the stress of becoming, a continuing experience of light and bliss that you can share with the world.

Yoga’s promise of freedom is within your reach, a promise made only in the Shaktipat tradition. Gurudevi’s specialty is that she gives you the inner experience of this wisdom tradition while she’s teaching you how to you apply it to your life.

Mini-Course #1 - Being

Your essence is divine and pure, yet you don’t experience this reality all the time yet. Caught up in the “human condition,” you focus on doing the many things that make up your life. Yet yoga asks, “Who are you while you are doing, doing, doing?”

In each of these two months, you get one of Gurudevi’s articles teaching about your inherent beingness. Her two online videos include practices that help you peel away the layers hiding who you really are. And her two Zoom Q&As make her able to personalize the teachings for you while you connect with others who are in the course.

Mini-Course #2 - Light

The light of your being is dazzling, but it shines too infrequently. Yet your inner radiance can illumine your whole life and overflow into others. The source of your intelligence, creativity, energy and enthusiasm, this light powers you through your life. In this two-month course with Gurudevi, you learn how to shine without effort, know without thinking and see the Divine in others.

Each month includes an article with teachings about your inner light, an online video with a new personal practice for you to do plus a Zoom Q&A so she can support you where you’re at and boost you to a new level inside.

Mini-Course #3 - Bliss

Inner bliss is the best. Bliss that comes from outer things is temporary, incomplete and even exhausting. But inner bliss affirms your own beingness and sources your generosity and love for all. Study bliss with Gurudevi for two months, both to experience the bliss of consciousness as well as to understand it. Most importantly, learn how to keep the tap open so you live in the inner flow of grace and bliss all the time.

Each month brings you a new article about bliss. It’s followed by her online video that give you bliss practices to do. Then join her in the Zoom Q&As to expand your clarity about inner bliss – and to expand your inner bliss.

Weekend Retreat - Onsite or Online

Exclusively for yogis who have completed all three mini-courses, this is a Shaktipat Retreat with Gurudevi. Your studies and practices will have opened you up to receiving even more of what this spiritual initiation offers, for a cosmic boost into the cosmic reality within.

Now it all comes together. As you discover your own Self, you know that you are being light and bliss. There’s nothing to study. There’s nothing to become, for you have always been the Light and Bliss of Beingness-Itself.
