AUM Meditation ~ the art of friendship

AUM stands for awareness, understanding and meditation. It is one of the basic and most powerful techniques used at the Humaniversity. It combines movement, role playing and vocal expression.
This two and a half hour meditation guides you in a safe and supportive environment through 14 aspects of the human experience: hatred, forgiveness, love, stamina, life energy, chaos, dance, sadness, laughter, sensuality, chanting, silence, respect and sharing.
The AUM is also unique because it is a Social Meditation. This means that your co-meditators will support you and act as mirrors in which you will be able to see yourself more clearly. The AUM is designed to help you to deepen friendships and create new ones. It will get you in touch with your power and vitality.
By participating in the AUM you can experience a deep sense of aliveness, warmth, relaxation and acquire a taste for life again!

Tibetan Pulsing Eye Reading Session



The eyes truly are the windows to the soul. Every child is born with his/her karmic patterns imprinted in their nervous system. These patterns are reflected in the various markings in the iris of the eye. These markings show us our psychological, emotional, mental & physical states. 

All the 24 organs of the body and their various attributes are reflected in the eyes. A skilled eye reading can reveal the unconscious patterns which govern our life and can help us to understand our own motivations, desires and aspirations. 

This work differs from iridology; which deals only with the physical aspects, whereas the Tibetan Pulsing eye reading uses a holistic approach and deals with the entirety of our human incarnation.

Tibetan Pulsing Healing Session ~ a refresher & for beginners



Dear Friends,

I would like to invite you for an evening event of feeling the pulse and re- connecting with not only the techniques you have learnt so far but also with your own selves. For those of you who have never attended a Tibetan pulsing healing workshop this is an opportunity to have a taste of what is on offer and receive the blessings of the pulse from more experienced participants. I look forward to meeting all of you in the pulse field again.

This event is free for all previous participants of Tibetan Pulsing and they can contribute for the dinner only. Participation by contribution for new participants.

With Love,

Sanjay & Yashu.
 

Program:

Pulse is the life force through which the spirit manifests itself. Tibetan Pulsing is based on Naropa’s work, an enlightened Master from the mysterious land of Buddhism, Tibet. He discovered that by revitalizing particular areas by Pulsing, in the body, specific energy centers can open up for our well being.

This is an evening to understand the process and go deeper in our energy centers.
This event can help us enter profound spaces of relaxation and self-awareness. We will experience interplay of energies between participants in a non-verbal environment.

Wed 11 Sep
6:00 pm to 8:00 pm (Followed by Dinner)

Tibetan Pulsing Healing: Self-Healing through Tantric Transformation



The pancreas within the human body holds the power of Shiva. It is the destroyer of all that is spurious and not in alignment with the body (hard liquor in particular). But what is destroyed is simply the negative form; It is trans-formed into new forms which are beneficial to us. Poison is transformed into nectar.

In this workshop we will discover that the pleasures we seek through substances and sensuality are already available to us within the tantric power of the pancreas; transmuting our negative energies into the nectar of love and inner ecstasy.

Pulse is the life force through which the spirit manifests itself. Based on the Six Yogas of enlightened Mystic, Naropa, it has been brought to the world under the guidance of Osho. Tibetan Pulsing uses ancient Tibetan processes to get in touch with the 24 organs of the body, which are the repositories of our unconscious. It is a powerful process using sound, colour and touch which reveals the hidden mysteries of the human body and it is a pathway towards inner transformation and awareness.

About Sanjay:











Sanjay is an Osho sannyasin since 1980, he worked with Shantam Dheeraj, the founder of Pulsing, for five years and holds the complete transmission. Traveller, restaurateur and maverick spiritualist, he has been living and teaching Tibetan Pulsing in Australia, Japan, Europe, Russia and India together with his Japanese partner Yashu, for the past 13 years.

The Sufi Path of Love

The Sufi Path of Love
                                 I surrender, I melt, I dissolve...! 

These two days are a powerful and ecstatic introduction to the world of Sufism. We will use different Sufi techniques of rhythm, breath, voice, sound and dance to enter a state of centeredness, silence, & emptiness.

Zhikr… (A primary Sufi technique, meaning remembrance) takes us through the different layers of our being & brings us in touch with the beloved within. Sama…Whirling takes us from mind into our hearts. Whole body is moving but we are connected with stillness in our center, like the center of the cyclone. We will also use many other Sufi meditations where we dissolve ourselves into existence, love & wildness.

We meditate..we chant..we dance..we dissolve…ishq allah..

Nirupam's Bio -















For the last 25 years on the path of meditation, Nirupam has experienced different forms of meditation therapies at Osho international meditation resort Pune. He has trained with different teachers from around the world in Sufism, Gurdjieff sacred dances, awareness intensive, Osho holistic massage and reiki.  For the last ten years he has been sharing his experience with people around the world facilitating Osho meditation workshops, Sufi whirling and zikr, Gurdjieff sacred dances and awareness intensive programs.

Chaand Raat JASHN ~ Sufi Stories, Music, Dance, Meditation

The Crescent Moon. He is a shy one. Playing hide and seek. You never know when it will appear. Today, tomorrow. You wait. And the night it decides to reveal itself, delicately framing the sky? Yes, in India, that night we call Chaand Raat, the night of the crescent moon. And thus begins the festival of Eid.

After an overwhelming response to last month's Sufi night, we have invited Damini on this mubarak occasion, to lead us, once again, into the realm of the Sufis. We do the Ed milap, with a sufiyana andaaz. Feeling the essence of friendliness, of celebration. She will take us through the stories, zikr and dances of the . The festivities will take place in naturalambiance, supported by candlelight.

After the Jashn, our cooks will be greeting you with a mouth watering feast including the Pride of Zorba, Shahenshah-e-Saiwayyan!
PS: This sufi gathering is desired to be intimate, small. We are limiting the entries. So please register, soon!
