Program Description
Yantras are an ancient geometrical technology that have existed for thousands of years, dating back to ancient India. They are tools for meditation, healing, and self-realization. These sacred shapes are a visual map for spiritual growth and each Yantra is associated with a particular Divine energy and sound vibration. Some consider Yantras to be an art form, while others understand them to be psychological transmissions of the Divine that carry the ability to activate our spiritual progress.
During this weekend workshop we will:
- Go through the process of painting a Yantra while experiencing the healing effects of meditative painting.
- Begin with a template to outline our chosen Yantra onto canvas.
- Explore the colors and shapes of our Yantras while immersing ourselves in sacred sounds through Mantra.
- Bring the Yantra to life through Puja (sacred ceremony) to invoke the energy or deity associated with it, transferring that energy into the physical artwork.
No experience with painting necessary to experience the transformative power of these healing arts! You will be supported and guided to let the spirit move through you in a completely judgment-free space while creating your very own Yantra through the process.
