Yoga Trance dance and tending the sacred fire…Sat April 7 from 7:30-9:30pm

 

And the day came when there was more pain to stay in the bud than it took to blossom.”
Anais Nin

Yoga Trance Dance
and tending the sacred fire
with
Kambiz
in the Great Hall at the Centre for Peace!
 

I see you everywhere
I dance for you
standing still inside
I dance for you like the tornado
powerful out side
and still inside
I change everything
Watch, every cell of my being is
singing for you
My heart is vibrating with joy and bliss
I became you

Beloved souls,
This is how I put my own experience of dance into the words after exploring and diving deep
into many different meditation techniques and styles:
A shortcut to Nirvana
For me I dissolve into something deep which cannot be explained.
letting go, pure joy, bliss and happiness are the by-products but something greater, bigger like the universe itself start to emerge in me.
I become the universe, I become the whole, I become you. We dissolve into each other and there we are…the Buddha!
one love
I will be holding/creating a space for you , where we can simply be in the stillness of the moment…keeping the instructions to the minimum
allowing to be spontaneously moved by an inner impulse, the music or perhaps inspired by a movement of another body…
exploring the riches of non-verbal communication, connecting with ourselves and the others…dancing a wave…
discovering on our own & as a group…moving towards a radiating stillness…
bringing our awareness on each chakra and letting go of old patters that do not serve us anymore…
recharging our chakras, refreshing and purifying our nadis the energy channels of the subtle body.
The location is in the Great Hall at the Centre for Peace.
Address:
1825 W.16th Ave, Vancouver, BC, V6J 2M3
Phone: 604- 731 3103
Date: Sat April 7 from 7:30-9:30 pm.
$20 or an exchange of volunteer work

Adjacent to the centre is a 26 car parking lot with 4 additional wheelchair parking spots.
To view maps please click HERE.

I will be holding YTD’s every other week on Sat or Sun alternating with the Healing Circles I am holding at my place every other week.
I will be away for part of April and busy with my family reunion, so the dates might be a little scattered in the next month.
Looking forward to seeing you all on the dance floor.

Dance, when you’re broken open.
Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off.
Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood.
Dance, when you’re perfectly free.

Healing circle…a life journey unfolding from the mandala of the heart! on Sun Mar 25, 7-9pm

Fire of our soul!
Lets get together and celebrate life!
Lets get together and just be…be ourselves…who we are is the most magnificent and unique phenomenon in this universe.
Lets put our hearts together and celebrate the joy and beauty of being nobody and going nowhere!

Your heart is the size of an ocean.
Go find yourself in its hidden depths.
Rumi

Below is the information for our healing circle.

I will be present with you to

guide you through the process.

The location is near Kitsilano beach.

This gathering is by invitation only as space is limited.

You can reach me by email or call me @ 77 888 shiva

for directions and availability.

The date is Sunday, Mar 25th from 7-9pm.

Nothing can burn down the diabolical temptations except the fire of a soul that has found union
with the universe. Otherwise, not only can meditation and rituals not eradicate the devil,
but their practitioner cannot even recognize the source of the devil’s empowerment.

Beloved souls,
Lets get together once more to celebrate life fully.
I love you all!


“When I was 5 years old, my mom told me that happiness was the key to life.

When I went to school,

they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.

I wrote down ‘happy’.

They told me I didn’t understand the assignment.

I told them they didn’t understand life.”

I’m not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.
I’ve always been a freak.
So I’ve been a freak all my life and I have to live with that, you know.
I’m one of those people.

Healing Circle, Sunday May 29 at 8pm(please note the new time)

Meditation cannot be a fragmented thing. It should be a continuous effort.

Every moment one has to be alert, aware and meditative. But the mind has played a trick.

You meditate in the morning and then you put it aside. Or you pray in the temple and then forget it.

Then you come back to the world, completely unmeditative, unconscious, as if walking in a hypnotic sleep.
This fragmented effort won’t do much.

Consciousness is a continuum. It is like a river, flowing constantly.

If you are meditative the whole day, every moment of it – and only when you are meditative the whole day – the flowering will come to you.

hang, and Luannah on flute to take us on a mystical journey with Elly, Ruth and Kambiz
reading the jewel words of Rumi.
Amir will then lead us in song and dance with Stefan playing on Tabla.
There will be chanting, zikr, dancing and united movements to reconnect us to our inner soul.
Raqib and whirling dervishes will bring light to the evening with their amazing whirling
and dances.
The night will continue with Sufi music with Amir and Stefan and more dancing led by Raqib and Amir.
The sacred journey will continue with DJ Hanuman who will close out the evening with mystical mixes
and visuals by Don for those who
may wish to continue dancing until 11:pm, and/or on their way home!
Celeste and Adelle will bring their art work and jewelry for display at the front desk.
Adelle (www.adellebernadette.com) will be unveiling a new painting specifically created for this event
on a limited edition basis.
She will be making these prints as affordable as possible for people to
increase the likelihood of sales and a strong contribution to Seva.

Don’t Go Back to Sleep

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you;

People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don’t go back to sleep.
