Among the Ganas (Group of Prayers), to you who are the Ganapati (Lord of Prayers), we offer our sacrificial oblations.
You are the Wisdom of the Wise and uppermost in glory,
You are the foremost King of the prayers, presiding as the Lord of the prayers.
Please come to us by listening to our Invocation and be present in the seat of this Sacred Sacrificial Altar
Rig Veda 2.23.1
today marks the beginning of the 10 day festival in honour of the benevolent and auspicious Shri Ganesha (Ganapati)
Shri Ganesha, son of Lord Shiva and Parvati, is the elephant headed God of supreme knowledge & wisdom
Ganapati reminds us that change in life is an opportunity to establish inner strength and resilience, to emerge “reborn” as a more embody Self, greater in truth than who we once were
Shri Ganesha invites us to embrace a sense of joy and grace as we walk the unsteady path of life, and he reminds us that our collective thoughts, words, and actions reflect not only who we are in this day but become who we will be in the future ~ this is the play of karma
join me for yin 7.30pm this evening as we celebrate with a practice in dedication to the energy and spirit that is Shri Ganesha

09/07/2025

welcome to Guru Purnima
an auspicious day in the Hindu calender
a day to bow in reverence to the portal of transcendance that lies both within and is guided by wise teachers (gurus) and enlightened ones
the story says that in a time long ago Maha Shiva sat in the sacred Himalaya deep in meditation for many hundreds of years. Many aspiring seekers would travel to the mountains to be in his presence and to find spiritual boons. Regardless of who sat before him the great Shiva did not move, nor even open his eyes. All the seekers would turn away ..impatient.
one day 7 young seekers sat before Lord Shiva, they embodied a powerful devotion to the path and stayed waiting for 84years offering penance to the great one and the path! Lord Shiva was impressed! He opened his eyes and saw they had become devoted yogis and blessed them the first teachings and his wisdom
the 7 seekers then became wise gurus themselves and travelled the land to impart Lord Shiva's teachings
this is the story of Adi Guru - Lord Shiva as the first teacher
and so it is that many more teachers have embodied and shared their wisdom with love and grace
so today in honour of our own spiritual insights, in devotion to the cosmic radiance that offers its rainbow light, in reverence of our teachers and their teachers we bow down to the lotus feet of our Guru - hands at heart, abundant with compassion, gratitude, and a generosity to selflessly share, in the purest way we know how, the wisdom and blessings of our teachers
Om gurur brahmā gurur viṣṇur gurur devo maheśvaraḥ, guruḥ sākṣāt paraṁ brahma tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ
OM Sri Gurubhyo Namaha ###x
much love to those that shared Guru Purnima with me last night (today I am away for my daughters 18th birthday) may you be blessed and empowered to devote more of your Self to the path

excited to announce a very special offering from our dear friend for the weekend July 25th-27th
Avishai is travelling down from the North Coast to offer a sound shower immersion on friday 25th at 7.30pm followed by a very special 2 day sound therapy workshop on the saturday 26th & sunday 27th of July
if youve ever attended one of Avishais sound baths you can never forget the deep release and open space it offers as you sink into a shower of healing sound and the mesmerising sound of his throat melodies - Avishai is offering a sound shower friday 25th July at 7.30pm
then for the first time on the south coast Avishai is sharing this magical art and ancient wisdom in a 2 day immersive workshop. during the workshop Avishai will guide you into the world of sound and its profound ability to affect states of consciousness, flows of energy, inner vibration, healing & wellness
the workshop is perfect for anyone interested in the healing capacity of sound and how to effectively use it for themselves, family, friends, or in the workplace, sound healers wishing to deepen their knowledge and expand their repertoire, yoga teachers wishing to stand out from the crowd and deliver more expressive classes with a unique skill set that helps students rest into the state of yoga (Para Vaak as the primordial reality, the sound vibration OM as the creation of time and space, & Devi Mahavidya Tara as the vibration, sound, and all manifest expression in existance)
if we follow this lineage of the Mahavidyas we will see the potency of sound, of vibration, ...of expression....as the essence of all that is Divine and existant in the cosmos
to book or know more head over to Avishais insta or find the offerings on Eventbrite. you can listen to avishai barnatan on spotify as well
.
Avishai will be introducing you to many different sound healing tools during the workshop, it is very experiential, and you will have the opportunity to buy or order on the day
spaces limited to a small group experience
we may not see Avishai down this way for a long time~ dont miss out

yoga
running the shala, working, and being mum has meant less time for my personal asana practice over the years and i have naturally drifted toward meditation, mantra, karma, bhakti and jnana to enrich my practice
thats not to say I dont still enjoy a fluid movement flow to awaken my senses, a deep releasing yin to soften my boundaries or a steady & challenging postural practice to bring me back to my centre
there is not a day that passes where I am not immersed in my practice in some way. my practice is the ribbon that gently wraps around and through my life, weaving a divine sense of purpose and meaning into all that I do, that I am
regardless of how i practice the intention is always the same. yoga is the practice of being the kindest, most compassionate and generous person I can be. I offer the energy of my practice as a sincere dedication toward mySelf, you, and all of earth's wonderous flora and fauna
you see, when you invite yoga into your heart, when it becomes the under-current in your stream of consciousness you simply have no choice but to open your arms lovingly to the universe and to see yourself reflected in the portrait of every sentient being
join us for practice at The Hive and
cultivate an asana practice that promotes fluidity, softness, steadiness, & centering. from this foundation touch into the practices of meditation, pranayama, mantra, bhakti, and jnana
practice in some way daily, nourish a blossoming Self of wisdom and compassion in action, and you will become the yoga that lasts lifetimes
BIKRAM, VINYASA, HATHA, YIN, PILATES

as i contemplate my practices of yoga I am absorbed into a cosmic flow of self, universe, and love
as i deepen my absorbtion in this magical play of energies I soften my desires for wordly pursuits and material gains. I take refuge in an omnipresent love, so profoundly pure, its light would illume a thousand worlds
I find simple joy in my asana practice, the act of cherishing my earthly vessel is physically uplifting & emotionally stabilising
I feel an empowered connection with Self in my pranayama practice,
the gift of experiencing my intimate openness in unfiltered moments
I feel the vibration of love in motion when i practice mantra, a conversation with my dear one that ripens a selflessness bound in reverent gratitude
I feel a totality absorbed in the universe, all that has been and all that will be, when i meditate, as i slow dance with truth in an intimate embrace
sometimes my yoga is energy,
sometimes my yoga is stillness,
sometimes my yoga is pure love.

the resplendent island - Sri Lanka
i thought i would share with you just a few of the Buddhas & monks I had the joy of meeting on my recent travels to Sri Lanka
around 70% of Sinhalese practice Theravada Buddhism (15% are Hindus) so stumbling across Buddha iconography, monks, stupas, & temples is easy to do in Sri Lanka
from ancient Buddhist caves 2000 yrs old, to forest dwelling monks, to locals offering flowers at Buddhas feet on a wayside shrine, spiruality & love for Buddha Siddhartha Gautama is abundant everywhere you go
formerly Hindu, Buddhism came to Sri Lanka in the 3rd century BCE
the most sacred and authoritive text of Theravada Buddhism is the Tipitaka or 'Three Baskets', also widely known as the Pali Canon. It is this Buddhist doctrine or Dhamma which is studied and revered as Buddha's teachings
on retreat next march 2026 join me on a pilgrimage to experience the heart of Sri Lanka's spirituality. we will immerse in daily yoga & meditation practices that draw from both Hindu & Buddhist teachings (history knows how they mingled & blended over time), spend 2 nights at a Buddhist meditation ashram learning dhamma from the monks, stay 6 nights in an Ayurvedic retreat centre, visit temples & stupas, experience puja & ceremony, walk in ancient kingdoms, and bathe in Sri Lanka's spectacular natural landscapes
for details of the retreat or to reserve your spot with a $1000 deposit head over to my travel business at www.namastayz.com.au
