SUMMARY:Shakti Caterina Maggi  ~  Living Awakening
DESCRIPTION:Our previous week of events with Shakti Caterina Maggi was  so successful that we decided to add a couple more last-minute events while Shakti is still in the Bay Area. \n\nThursday\, Feb. 21st\, 7:00-8:45 pm ~ Living Awakening\n\nSaturday\,  Feb. 23rd\, 11:00 am-5:00 pm ~ Living Awakening Intensive\n\n\nShakti is a teacher very well known in Europe and her native Italy\, who offers a contemporary and accessible vision of true awakening that is profoundly in tune with Advaita and nondual Tantric traditions. With wisdom\, humor\, and heartfelt connection\, she shares a message of discovering the divinity at the very core of our humanity. Shakti has been sharing this message of non-separation since 2003 with many people around the world\, especially in Italy and in Europe\, where she holds regular satsangs and retreats. \nThe day-long intensive will emphasize experiential  exercises\, as well as mediation and satsang. These special perception exercises are designed to help us see and dissolve our conflictual view of life\, and the patterns of holding and resistance that reinforce the sense of separation. This then enables us to live and embody a message of true peace and non-separation between human beings. \n“Awakening to your true nature means to wake up to your true essence that lies behind any conflict of daily living. Thoughts and feelings are not an obstacle to this recognition\, but the direct expression of how we know or ignore ourselves. Once we find that silence that rests behind manifestation\, the ego will come back\, out of habit. If we can recognize its presence\, not as a disturbance but as an opportunity to integrate the message\, our everyday life becomes our true spiritual journey. The Peace of our Being becomes the world we see and live in.” \nwww.shakticaterinamaggi.com \nVideo \nThur. Feb. 21st.
