What does the SSSEx Intensive Involve?
Receive a life force transmission that will unlock your potential as human being through the power of love. Reclaim your innocence, sacredness and authenticity within an international tribe celebrating embodied spiritualityLevel 2 (SSSIn) begins its work once the decision is made that this is the way we want to live and not just a peak experience in a workshop.
Level 2 (SSSIn) guides you through a series of self initiations that say goodbye to old patterns of relating and anchor the identity in the deep self that is already free, inherently loving and dynamically creative in the world. ISTA’s initiation provides the teachings and experiences we didn’t receive around our spirituality, our relationship with the transpersonal and its integration with the personal and universal.
Level 2 deepens the experience of Level 1. It provides an alchemical container for transformation through group practise, ritual and meditation.The Shamanic initiation: Its core is death and rebirth. This overcomes the fear of death in the base chakra and also sets the shaman apart from the tribe to serve the tribe in a special way.
It is an essential component to the integration of sexual and spiritual worlds because it results in the transcendence of ego and the dedication of one’s awakened powers to the collective.
The result is Power.
The Sexual Initiation – The rituals of self-pleasure and sacred spot in Level 1 awaken a deeper relationship with our sexual energies. In Level 2, we explore the unification of our masculine and feminine, conscious penetration and sacred union.
The result is Love.
The Spiritual Initiation – Meditation training and essential identity inquiry open us into our primordial awareness and provide a taste of sunyata or the void experience. Invocatory temples combined with a personal vision quest provides each individual an opportunity for deeper levels of their being to be contacted, honoured and integrated.
The result is Presence.
