SUMMARY:Shakti Caterina Maggi ~ The Alchemy of True Heart - How to meet duality from our non-dual essence
DESCRIPTION:“The Heart is where consciousness abide” Ramana Maharshi \nMeeting life and its polarities compels us to challenge our usual defense mechanisms and to access a deeper space in ourselves where manifestation is not separate from us. This space is the true Heart which is where our non-dual essence as consciousness is relating from. \nThe Heart is the great alchemist that can transform the fear of the false personality into the natural radiance of our being\, sat- cit- ānanda (truth- consciousness-bliss). The transformation of the lead of fear into the gold of joy implies dying to images that we had built up about ourself and meeting life from something that is perceived as vulnerable\, but is actually openness.\nThe workshop will be accompanied by perceptual experiences and satsang. \nShakti Caterina Maggi has been sharing a message of awakening to our true nature as One Consciousness since 2003. Her approach to Self-Realization is very contemporary and accessible\, and is profoundly in tune with Advaita and the non-dual Tantric traditions. She reveals the real possibility of seeing what we truly are\, and embodying it in our everyday lives with clarity\, wisdom\, and humor. \nShe was recently asked to contribute to the anthology On the Mystery of Being: Contemporary Insights into the Convergence of Science and Spirituality edited by Zaya and Maurizio Benazzo\, the founders of the Science and Non-Duality (SAND) Conference. She teaches in Europe\, Canada and the USA\, offering satsang\, seminars and retreats. \n“The true Heart is the space in which we can deeply meet ourselves and the entire world. The way to the Heart is an embodied Consciousness\, in which we are divinely human.” \nwww.shakticaterinamaggi.com \nWhere: Chochmat HaLev\, 2215 Prince St.\, Berkeley\, CA\nWhen: 11:00am – 5:00 pm\nSliding Scale: $60 – $120 (cash or check)\nNo pre-registration.\nNo one turned away for lack of funds. \nLunch Break:\nWelcome to bring your lunch\, and there are also various places near the Berkeley venue\, to go out to eat.\nNote: Per venue policy\, only vegetarian food is allowed on premises at Chochmat HaLev
