About This Month's Event
Each of us has the capacity to touch the mystery and inspire the divine.
Our bodies, our minds, our sensory perceptions... the very existence
of life itself can be seen and celebrated as a divine mystery in which
what we don't know transcends what we think we know about our limitless
potential as human beings.
Join
us for a very special and sacred evening in which we will enter The
Mystic Temple of Divine Mystery. Through meditation, visualization,
dialog, group interaction, personal exploration, partner practice,
and breath & energy work, we'll explore how to move beyond our
everyday, mundane life experiences and surrender into the unknown.
We'll practice seeing and honoring the divine in ourselves and others,
and give ourselves permission to manifest that divinity in our personal
life, our relationships, and everyday living.
All
are welcome. No experience required.We look forward to seeing you
there!
Volunteers
Needed to Create Sacred Space
We're
always in need of volunteers to help set up and/or take down the sacred
space we create for each Sacred Saturday event. Of course, volunteers
get to attend the evening for free, often join us afterwards for a
late meal, and will be invited to our annual Holiday Gratitude Party
in December. To volunteer, please call (831) 457-6535 or email volunteers@ecstaticlove.net.
About
Sacred Saturdays
Each Sacred Saturday is unique, drawing from various traditions such
as Tantra, meditation, yoga, Buddhism, Sufism, Native American, dance,
chant, and other paths to help us connect with ourselves and each
other from a place of presence, awareness, and aliveness. Each monthly
evening provides the opportunity to participate in a special Tantric
Puja (sacred ritual) that may involve movement, music, breath practice,
energy work, dance, chanting, active and still meditations, guided
visualization, communication practices, and other ways to honor and
celebrate our bodies, hearts, and spirit. Practices and rituals may
be done alone, with a partner, or as part of the whole group. We strive
to create an environment that is safe, respectful, and comfortable
for those coming alone or as a couple, those coming for the first
time, and those who want to build an ongoing community of people devoted
to cultivating sacredness and joy in life.
