Module # 4: Awakening to Presence: Integration~ Living the Lotus Life
“The most salient feature of consciousness as it gravitates and anchors in motionless is luminosity”- Cliff Hartranft- The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
By clearing and dis-identifying from what we are not(non-attachment) we rediscover the essential core of our Being, revealing the embodiment of consciousness to blossom in any condition. Living the Lotus Life reveals ‘ being in the world, but not of it’. Aligning with that which is whole, holy and eternal. This module will introduce the importance of Sangha-spiritual community, communing in deep silence and surrender. Activation of the transformational practice of Intuitive Life Visioning will be taught as a tool to live your life aligned with SAT NAM.
