| Shakti and Vira Groups |
|
These groups focus on awakening and developing qualities that are specific to men and specific to women.
Shakti is the feminine counterpart of the Highest Consciousness, in the tantric tradition called Shiva. Together they “give birth” to all that is created in this universe. Every woman can awaken this state of Shakti in her being; a unique charming and mysterious energy, that is specific for her. Through tantric methods she can discover this secret potential and manifest it, so that all her potential will blossom in the grandiose feminine manifestation that every woman in reality is.

In modern society the differences between men and women are less and less clear. This makes it a challenge for men and women to find their natural masculinity and femininity within. Tantra is a spiritual system that appreciates the fundamental difference between man and woman. According to tantric philosophy, all men have a masculine core that can be awakened and amplified. All men have the potential to evolve into a warrior and hero. We all have the blood of the Vikings running in our veins. The tantric system has numerous techniques that can be used by anyone aiming to awaken his masculine essence. When a man starts to develop his natural masculinity he comes closer to his true core and he will experience more harmony, fulfilment and Joy of living. In the tantric tradition, the goal for any man's evolution is to reach the level of "spiritual hero", called Vira in Sanskrit. The Vira group is for all men that are serious about their personal and spiritual development. We aim to develop natural masculine qualities such as courage, self-confidence and discipline and to integrate these qualities into a modern lifestyle. It is in meeting with the feminine that the man is put to the test. If the man is not faithful to his masculine core and at the same time is a slave of his sexual desires, he will never be a worthy partner for any woman. This leads to frustration for both parties, unhappy relationships and mistrust of the other sex. Tantra shows how the erotic energies can be controlled and guided. When the man learns to control his erotic energies, he will experience increased virility, increased attraction between him and women as well as a generally more harmonious interaction with women. The teaching consists of a mixture of theory, practise (yoga, meditations and various physical exercises) and homework. More than this, we will use the special energy that a dynamic groups creates to accelerate the development of the individual. You will learn about the unique qualities of the masculine, and how they can be empowered in practice. You will experience more self-confidence and willpower. Your relations with women will improve. You will feel more comfortable in the role as man and experience more fulfilment and joy in life. Men will not evolve by meeting and talking. Men have to act! That is why meaningful participation requires that you use some time every day to practice the techniques given in the course. Only persevering practice leads to success. The current Vira group meets every Sunday - please contact Nikos for more information on 07710079549 |
