Pandit Rajmani Tigunait – Lifting the Final Veil

In this Study and Practice Intensive recorded live in September of 2017, Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, PhD reveals the tools to restore and rejuvenate the internal ecology of body, mind, and heart—a step necessary for our soul to conquer deep-rooted afflictions and become fully connected to its source. In this program, he refines and elaborates on the practices described in Yoga Sutra 2:52–55. In this context, he explores important marma sthanas, the pranic centers in our body, and, using the unique techniques of pranayama and dharana, explains how we can unleash the pranic forces and lead them to the lotus of the heart.

Pranayama and meditative techniques taught in this program come directly from the samaya school of Sri Vidya tantra, and form the foundation for the samaya version of Rudra Yaga, the practice that embodies the secret of sacred fire and prana shakti. This intensive will allow you to discover that every yogic practice has its tantric counterpart, and each such practice unveils the extraordinary power of prana, mind, mantra, and divine entities. Experiences arising from such practices add to our excellence.

Supporting materials for this program are derived from Yoga Sutra 1:36, 3:31–35, 4:18, 4:20–22, and 4:25; Shiva Sutra 1:6, 1:15, 1:22, 3:6–7, 3:22, and 3:43–44; and the Lotus Sutra (Saddharma Pundarika Sutra), especially the dialogue between Buddha and Sariputra regarding meditation on the lotus of the heart. Practical application of these sutras has been purposefully shrouded in mystery. In this intensive, Pandit Tigunait lifts this mystery in order to support life’s higher purpose and because we believe in the intermingled nature of our personal enlightenment and the enlightenment of collective consciousness.
