Love - the highest Sadhana

How long has it been, since you have had a conversation with your own heart? How starved is the heart, yearning for a drop of love like a thirsty bird lost in the great desert. If only, you knew - that there is an entire ocean, and you have yet to step into the temple of the heart! How long will you walk this earth, seeking in every direction, for that which has been within all along? Perhaps, it is time, for you to come back home!

"Love, is the highest of all sadhnas. Everything we teach, every sadhna, every technique is always about returning back to love. If you can love, even for a moment, with the whole of your being, as intensely and as completely as possible - you have already experienced the Divine. This love need not be for another being, this love need not be for any rhyme or reason, this love simply exists - just like you do - as a beautiful flower in the garden of the Cosmos.​ So, if you know love - you need not practice any sadhna - you are already there!​ But, if you have forgotten - if you want to love and be loved, but don't know how to love - come, let us sit together for a moment. Together, let us remember once again - who you truly are!"

You must have read this quote from me on some of our pages on the website.

All of us come into this life, with the desire to experience life with an open heart, to know love in its truest essence. Yet, it is very easy to get disappointed by the world as we grow up and realize that love is nowhere to be found! We give up on love as our relationships fail one by one. Is love really something that can be experienced? Or is it a myth, promoted by movies & tv shows to fool people?

Nevertheless, we hide this unfulfilled desire of our heart with great effort. And it is in this effort to hide the wound, we go through life looking for materialistic things to fill the empty hole inside of us. Eventually, as we drain all of our life force to collect a whole bunch of material possessions, sometimes, we do realize at an old age - that most of our life has been an effort to hide, to escape this very wound.

But what happens when you decide to face this wound? What happens, when you finally sit down and confront this deep empty feeling? That takes courage, doesn't it? But what do you think will happen?

The answer is quite profound. You will finally find the love that you were looking for all along. It is just that, your eyes were pointing in the wrong direction. Love isn't something someone else can give you. It can only be experienced in your own heart - and from there, it flows to others.

So, if you've been exploring the world, hoping to find your soul mate - first thing to do, is sit down with yourself, take a deep look in the mirror - look at every little imperfection, and embrace yourself with all the care you can muster. Because if you cannot love yourself, chances are, someone else will find it difficult to love you as well!

If you are here, reading this, and you have already ventured through our website or you know about our offerings - know that you cannot get into the higher practices of Tantra, if your heart is not in the right place. Because without a heart full of love - you will drown instead of flying high. So, before you take a 7 day course, please take a moment & sit down with yourself first!

Thank you for reading :)

With lots of love,
