A Weekend Workshop on the Spanda Karikas
(The Tantric Stanzas of Vibration)
Fri, April 13 to Sun, April 15, 2-5pm, All Sessions (9 Hours***)
Description: Join Christopher Tompkins, visiting teacher from the United States, in the study and associated practices associated with the Spanda Karikas (The Tantric Stanzas of Vibration). According to the primary teaching on Spanda, the 9th century Kashmiri work known as the ‘Teachings on Vibration,’ the supreme vibration (Spanda) unifies and encompasses all that has emerged from it, and continually re-enfolds the manifest totality of all that exists back into the supreme light of consciousness. This will be a special weekend of study and insight as Christopher is one of a few highly qualified teachers to present these ancient teachings, and possesses the rare skill of articulating a complex topic in simple terms. Hours for this workshop can count towards Prana Flow and Anusara teacher training programs. Please dress comfortably as most of this workshop will be seated.
