Swami Khecaranatha (Nathaji)
With a mastery etched from over five decades of disciplined inner practice and selfless service, Khecaranatha is an authentic adept in the Śakti Transmission Lineage of Bhagavan Nityananda and Swami Rudrananda.
Nathaji teaches from his personal experience and revelations. His study of the richness and wisdom of ancient tantric scripture provides a means to articulate the teachings of his lineage within the larger context of these powerful nondual traditions — while emphasizing the essence of his teaching, which is to empower students to discover their own innate divinity.

Nathaji's will explore the wisdom and practices of one of the most significant teaching of Śaiva Tantra.
One thousand years ago a great tāntrika, Rājānaka Kṣhemarāja, wrote his masterpiece: The Pratyabhijñā-hṛdayam. The title means, “The Essence of the Recognition," which is the knowledge of oneself as an expression of the universal Divine Consciousness.
Kṣhemarāja gives us the secret or “heart” of nondual tantric teachings: the process, by stages, through which Divine Consciousness becomes the world of manifold forms and then delights in its recognition of Itself, as our own individuated consciousness. (Credit: Hareesh/C.Wallis)
This extraordinary text makes a key statement which is then articulated in terms of Kuṇḍalinī:
Awareness Itself is the Goddess (we worship),
the Supreme Power.
In addition to his discourse, Nathaji will be taking you progressively through a set of powerful meditations and practices.
You will receive śakti, awareness and stillness practices, and some of the specific meditations given in The Heart of Recognition (Sutra 18)
You will come to experience how śakti becomes Consciousness, how individuality becomes universality, and how stillness and Presence are the all-pervasive screen on which it all takes place.
