Enliven Your Meditation Practice & Expand Your Consciousness: A Course in Vedic Knowledge Five-Part Series

Interested in expanding your spiritual knowledge and deepening your Vedic meditation practice? Join us for A Course in Vedic Knowledge with Jeff Kober (CVK). We’ll study in depth the philosophy and worldview behind Vedic meditation, building a paradigm for a life well-lived. We will also learn advanced techniques that promote powerful stress release and greater adaptability in our increasingly hectic world.

The Vedas are texts that originated in India at least 5,000 years ago and that offer spiritual wisdom cognized by rishis, or ancient seers, who were able to see deeply into the movement of the laws of nature.

A study of this ancient Vedic knowledge is an examination of the subtle mechanics of reality from which we can form a blueprint for living that is surprisingly applicable to modern life.

 
 

What to Expect

This advanced course is open to Vedic meditators who have received a mantra from Diana, Trudi, Jeff, or any other trained Vedic meditation instructor. It will be offered during five weekends in 2022-2023 in-person in Los Angeles (up to 8 people in order of registration) and on Zoom, facilitated by The Shakti Sisters. Programming will begin Friday evening and conclude Sunday afternoon. Each session builds on the previous session: Next up is CVK 4: Coming in February, 2024.

Each part is presented live by Jeff and the Shakti Sisters and delves deeply into this ancient wisdom, teaching you how to apply these time-tested principles to modern life. Along the way, we will provide handouts, snacks, comic relief, and other resources to enrich the journey and make it even more accessible to householders with busy lives. The final session of each weekend will be a Q&A with Jeff.

We hope you can join us for these adventures in consciousness!
