Cultivating Conscious Desires

Cultivating Conscious Desires

A Healing & Manifestation Workshop

What is your greatest desire? An amazing Relationship? Money? Success?

But are you sure that those desires are yours?

They may not be because, quite often, what we think we want are often just impulses that arise out of the fear, insecurity, and comparisons in our minds. What’s worse is that we are so rooted in our minds that we may not even know the difference.

Does that sound scary or weird?

It is true though. Many of our desires are rooted in our fear of our past and for our future, or they may even be linked to the unfulfilled desires of our ancestors. This is what often makes manifesting your desires seem like such a Sisyphean task.

However, in tantra wisdom traditions, desires are seen as a sacred tool to experience higher states of consciousness. In fact, tantra integrates desires into mantras and meditations as well, which helps you grow and manifest your desires in a conscious way.

If you’re interested in understanding this process better, come join our senior teacher and the author of the bestselling book Break the Norms at our Studio City location as he shares his insights on how to manifest through, and for, higher awareness! In addition to the talk, there will also be a guided mantra meditation and a Q&A session. Bring your notebook and pen for notes.

Spiritual Retreats to India and Bali

Spiritual Retreats to India and Bali

Spiritual Retreats to India and Bali

Bali retreat dates: February 18th to February 26th, 2017
India retreat dates: March 11th to March 18th, 2017

Investment: Starts from $8, 500 per person (Discounts and Scholarships available for early registrants)

Spirituality!

You read about it. You talk about it. You think about it! But if we were to ask you, “What is

true authentic spirituality,” would you be able to tell us the answer?

While we have you, here are a few other questions to consider as well:

-Do you live freely, or do you feel trapped within a predestined life?

-Do you think there there is a way to break the karmic contracts in your life?

-What is your true purpose? Do you know how to effortlessly discover what that is?

-Can true happiness ever really be experienced?

-Is there a way to break your norms?

Yes, that may have seemed like a lot to digest, but don’t worry, we’re here to help you figure it all out. We’ll be answering all of these haunting questions, and exploring so much more about spirituality, at our two upcoming retreats!

We are happy to share that our retreats to India and Bali, facilitated by Chandresh Bhardwaj, will take place in December 2016 and April 2017, respectively. These retreats promise to infuse clarity, peace, and a new awakening into your being. We’re aware that you have many options when it comes to choosing a spiritual retreat – the spiritual market is flooded with them! It is fair for you to ask, “What makes Chandresh’s retreat different and better than the rest?” We think there are many reasons:

Spiritual Experiences. This isn’t just a tourist’s vacation to India and Bali. If you are looking for that, this retreat isn’t for you. Our retreats are carefully planned to provide you with authentic spiritual experiences, a few of which include:

Meditation: You will meditate with Chandresh daily in the foothills of the Himalayas in India. This is the place where yoga was discovered, many meditation techniques were created, and spiritual traditions are still nurtured. In Bali, you meditate in powerful, cosmic surroundings existing for many traditions. Chandresh will share his signature meditation techniques - techniques that are bound to give you practical results. Group discussions and Q&A sessions will complement these sessions.

Mantra: At the retreats, Chandresh will assign you a personal mantra. A sacred offering of Chandresh’s spiritual lineage, these unique mantras are offered to seekers as a way to find spiritual growth and success. Mantras are given based on your intentions, energy levels, and current challenges.

Private Sessions: You will have the opportunity to have one-on-one meetings with Chandresh.

Yagya Experience: Spiritual traditions of the East have developed a number of methods to help seekers find peace, overcome obstacles, and manifest their innate intentions. One of these is Yagya, a powerful ritual performed by several experts through mantras and yogic meditation. It’s an experience almost impossible to describe in words, and carries the powerful vibrations of mantra sounds. During the ritual, experts chant mantras to raise your awareness and clear away inner challenges. We keep Shiva (the symbol of the highest consciousness) to serve as witness to your transformation, allowing you to meditate for hours during the ritual. This powerful experience is truly one of the highlights of the retreat.

Lunch with Himalayan Monks: (Possible only in India) Following your Yagya ritual, seekers will have the chance to lunch with Himalayan monks. These monks (there are often 200-300 in attendance) will dine with you, and you’ll get to experience their energy in a truly personal way.

The Taj Mahal. Yes, you will get to visit the incredible and majestic Taj Mahal in India! Known as the symbol of love, the Taj Mahal is a sight you will cherish forever.

Luxurious and Safe Accommodations. Your comfort, hygiene, and safety are our first priority. In order to ensure that you have the most memorable experience in India, we’ve selected some of the area’s best properties. Hotels include:

Accommodations in India:

Ananda Spa: In her book, What I know For Sure, Oprah Winfrey calls the Ananda “a life-enhancing process” and continues: “Going to Ananda is more like a pilgrimage than a visit, with every moment designed to cultivate presence.”

Accommodations in Bali: Five Elements ResortNestled alongside the sacred Ayung River, Fivelements, Puri Ahimsa is a healing and wellness destination deeply rooted in the philosophies and traditions of Bali, nurturing harmony among spirit, human and nature. 

 

Memorable Excursions. You will explore Rishikesh’s local markets (where The Beatles learned how to meditate), witness the world-famous Ganga Aarti (a mantra ritual held on the banks of the River Ganga and attended by hundreds daily), and practice yoga at Ananda, among many other amazing experiences. In Bali, we’ll be experiencing the local culture, ancient heritage sights, and visit the temples that makes Bali a hot spot for the spiritual seekers.

Comfortable Transportation. Our roundtrip commute is covered by chauffer-driven car in both India and Bali. The journey from Delhi to Rishikesh will be via car or flight*. Depending upon weather conditions, we’ll pick the best option!

*For past retreats in India, we have used a private jet to fly from roundtrip from Delhi to Rishikesh. If we opt for private jet, the retreat fee will increase, but we will notify you in advance. There will be no obligation to fly via jet.

If you’re interested in attending, you’ll need to fill out the application. And if you can’t decide between Bali and India, don’t worry. Once your application is accepted, we can discuss your goals for the retreat during a one-on-one video call, and we can help you make the best decision for you.

The Consciousness High

The Consciousness High

Do you ever feel like you’re not living up to your highest potential?

Do you have a hard time in relationships, with finding your true purpose, or adopting a positive attitude? Do you feel anxious and nervous often? Many of these issues exist because we’re not truly tapping into our own consciousness. The human consciousness has infinite potential, but many of us don’t know how to access and harness its power. When we realize our full consciousness, we experience clarity, relationship happiness, and a deep connection with the divinity within.

In this life-changing workshop led by bestselling author and spiritual advisor Chandresh Bhardwaj, students will learn powerful and easy-to-implement meditation techniques for understanding and raising the power of their own consciousness.

Attendees can look forward to these topics:

  • Understanding the consciousness and its various states
  • Learning how mantras can raise the consciousness
  • How to use the Ajna Chakra (third eye) to rewire your consciousness
  • Why chanting ‘Om’ mantra isn’t for you
  • How relationships and sexual energy can affect our consciousness

In addition, the workshop will end with an exclusive mantra meditation led by Chandresh that will tap into your true and powerful consciousness.

Yagna is a consciousness based Vedic ritual, performed by learned pundits, with the intention of cultivating prosperity, contentment, health, wealth and happiness to the seeker. Yagna is a powerful and beautiful experience, using ancient Sanskrit mantras and sacred fire; Agni. This sacred retreat is for you if you love to be surrounded by healing nature and are willing to dive into beloved India's vast ocean of mysticism. Understanding the balance of nature and learning how to create that same balance within ourselves is the most valuable treasure to behold. Change your life by creating balance, harmony and bliss within yourself!
