Advanced Kundalini Shakti Initiation 2022 – Raja Choudhury

Work with Kundalini Shakti — the evolutionary force of sacred feminine power within you — for healing, vitality, success, and true inner peace in a time of unrest and uncertainty.

Safely activate this sacred healing energy at the base of your spine to access bliss consciousness and evolve into a more beautiful, radiant soul.

Have you heard of, or experienced, the power of Kundalini energy, but haven’t yet truly awakened yours or harnessed its potential?

Would you like to master ancient techniques that allow you to tap into the pranic energy field around and within you — to evoke more joy, vibrancy, and peace in your life?

And did you know that you have the power within you to activate your heart chakra and create a golden sheath around your body that protects you from negative or harmful energies from the world?

The key to these extraordinary experiences is your Kundalini — a word many know, yet one that’s enveloped in mystery, mythology, and misconceptions.

Kundalini Shakti is a crucial part of the evolutionary shift of consciousness that’s now underway on planet Earth. What does this ancient knowledge teach us in the age of the pandemic, economic uncertainty, racial division, and political turmoil?

From ancient sages to modern-day seekers, many have experienced the rapid spiritual growth that happens by awakening the Kundalini energy that lies dormant at the base of your spine.

Kundalini energy is an ancient biological and mystical force that’s in every one of us, but needs to be lit up in order to reconnect you with your higher potential self. Once awakened, Kundalini can lead to divine visions and the bliss of profound awareness.

Although the awakening of Kundalini is a subject surrounded by hype, myth, and tales of caution, you can connect with this primal force in a grounded, gentle, and powerfully liberating way — opening you to mystical experiences and a vast field of joyful energy.

When you awaken your Kundalini, you begin to free up more energy… not only for your spiritual life, but also for your career, your creativity, and your service in the world.

This energy is said to enter each of us at birth and remain latent until ignited. Once awakened, the vital energy begins flowing up your spine, flooding your body, mind, and spirit with the divine love-energy of the universe, immersing you in bliss and enabling you to access a more boundless field of love.

Kundalini energy is often depicted as a serpent, coiled three-and-a-half times around, resting at the base of the spine, with the serpent representing the journey of the mind from matter to cosmos, from human consciousness to cosmic consciousness.

Fully awaken the energy vortex of Kundalini, and through the gateway of the spinal cord you can access the ever-new, ever-existing, superconscious bliss state. Kundalini can be awakened accidentally and temporarily in many ways — as a Shaktipat blessing (a gift from a guru to a disciple who’s prepared to receive it), through ecstatic dance, devotional chanting, sacred mantras, rhythmic breathing and movement, or through a variety of other techniques and practices. However, for permanent awakening to occur, one has to work step-by-step to awaken the Shakti within. This is specifically why Tantric teachers have worshipped Kundalini as the Goddess incarnate within us.

The Importance of an Experienced Guide

Spiritual teacher Raja Choudhury, who’s helped over 2,700 students discover their inner potential here at The Shift Network over the past two years, will give step-by-step instructions to awaken the evolutionary force of divine feminine power within you — elevating how you engage in your highest callings.

Raja has been initiated in many lineages and received various transmissions that empowered him as a spiritual teacher, and has also lived a full life in the world as a media producer and family man. He’s thus skilled at teaching how to work with profound spiritual practices and energies while also being firmly grounded in the world and fully engaged with life.

As Raja teaches, Kundalini can clear channels in your body, emotions, mind, and soul, allowing you to receive the divine energy pouring through your cells. Activating your Kundalini can also help you develop new capacities of intuition, clairsentience (clear feeling or sensing), and healing power — and awaken you to a more reverential relationship with the world around you.

Through Raja’s detailed and comprehensive wisdom transmissions, you’ll come to understand that Kundalini is a crucial part of the much-needed evolutionary shift of global consciousness, and a critical tool for accelerating and supporting the massive shift that is already underway.

Raja will gently guide you through a proven process to ensure that you are physically, mentally, and spiritually prepared to handle this powerful energy surging through your subtle body. Just as the filament in a 40-watt bulb would be fried if you sent 100 watts of energy through it, your body, mind, and soul must rise to the appropriate vibration to prevent headaches, dizziness, and other symptoms of “energy overload.”

This program is divided into two parts — a 7-module introductory program followed by the advanced immersion.

As you’ll discover in the introductory course, you must ground yourself and become solidly energized and adapted to the physical nature of consciousness, because the Kundalini energy will first enter the three chakra centers at the bottom of your body. Raja refers to this area as the First Sun.

When that area is energetically cleansed and empowered, you come to the heart chakra, the Second Sun. When the Kundalini energy enters this area, two things happen. One, you evolve naturally and inevitably into a better version of yourself — acting from your heart and becoming kinder, more compassionate, more empathetic…

And two, given that you’re now more open and vulnerable, you protect yourself from the negativity outside you by using specific mantras to create an impenetrable energy field (aka a golden egg or golden sheath) around your entire body.

By the time you’ve lifted the Kundalini energy to your heart center, your life has already begun transforming and you’re on your way to becoming an emissary of light in the world.

Bringing the energy into the upper three chakras — the Third Sun — dissolves your ego into the ether, and you rise up to the highest realms to connect your energy (Shakti) with the energy of the universe (Shiva) and unite as one.

As you advance on this journey from self to Self, as you mingle the single drop of your consciousness with the vast ocean of Spirit, your entire being is flooded with divine light, you gain access to a vast intelligence, and you become a Sky Walker, one who walks with the yogis.

When you come out of the womb of this Sacred Mother energy into the light of higher consciousness, ALL of creation will conspire on your behalf to bring your heart’s desire to fruition!

And since your core energy is the life force that propels all that you do, awakening your Kundalini can have a profound impact on your personal magnetism, creativity, and ability to motivate others. In short, it’s like plugging into a higher voltage current for your life.

Becoming a Beacon of Love

Awakening your Kundalini energy requires two things: energy and breath. You need to bring the energy that is all around you into your body in order to wake up the dormant Kundalini energy inside you.

This energy outside and inside your body is called prana — and as you bring it into yourself, a certain vitality comes into your life. You start radiating an energy. Your skin begins to glow, you feel less tired, more focused, and less fearful.

You’re also better able to regulate your emotions and your reactions — your sexual desires, your hunger, your food needs… all these kinds of things come under your control.

As Raja guides you through this experiential map of awakening the Kundalini energy and welcoming bliss consciousness, you may be wondering whether you’ll be so blissed out that you’ll lose the desire to act in the world.

Just the opposite! The purpose of awakening Kundalini energy is not to transcend your day-to-day life, but to purify and prepare your body, mind, and spirit to welcome the Divine into your life — and then embody and express that divinity in every moment, with every breath.

With your Kundalini energy awakened, you’ll become an observer of everything… and when you observe everything, and see through the drama to the role you’re playing, you gladly play your part with a deep sense of gratitude while staying continuously aware of your center and your stability.

Become more active and engaged in the world, with a heart full of bliss. When others cross your path, your beacon of love can set their flickering lanterns ablaze!

Kindle the light in others and your own heart glows ever more brightly. The more you give of your love, the more love you have to give. You cannot look anywhere without seeing opportunities to help, comfort, or inspire others. Your mere presence becomes an act of service.

Yet the world needs more from you than service. It needs your creativity, your innovation, and your dreams. Waking up the Kundalini energy within you unleashes these latent creative powers.

Awakening your Kundalini energy frees your spirit to transcend the body-consciousness of the ego and align with Spirit. Pressure, fear, and struggle give way to peace, love, and bliss. You’ll feel more joyously and passionately alive than you ever have before, and empowered to go forth and change the world with the gifts that only your awakened Self can offer.

What You’ll Discover in These 21 Modules

In this transformational intensive, Raja will guide you through the fundamental spiritual skills and competencies you’ll need to gently and safely awaken your Kundalini energy — the evolutionary force of sacred feminine power within you — for healing, vitality, success, and true inner peace, while remaining firmly grounded during this time of unrest and uncertainty.

This course will feature teachings, training sessions, and experiential practices with Raja. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to properly explore your Kundalini Shakti energy.

These 21 sessions — each of which features teachings and Q&A, followed by a 15-minute meditation with Raja — are designed to take you deep into the Sri Kula, Kali Kula, Kriya, and Shiva Shakti traditions of Kundalini awakening and nurturing with deepening practices and exercises.

In Raja’s initial 7-module course, Awakening Your Kundalini, he has guided more than 1,500 students in awakening their Kundalini Shakti, with the majority also actively participating in the course Facebook community. Now he wants to take you and seekers like you who have been earnestly exploring their inner lives into the deeper aspects of Shakti and Shiva.

When you enroll in the Awakening Your Kundalini Advanced Program, you’ll be lovingly supported by this vibrant community of spiritual seekers.

You’ll also be able to contact Raja directly with more personal questions.

Please note that Raja highly encourages all participants to complete the 7-module course, Awakening Your Kundalini (which is included in your registration!), prior to beginning this Advanced Kundalini Shakti program. Otherwise, it will be difficult to keep pace with the more advanced teachings.

Introductory Session: The Kula Shakti & Kriya Path of Kundalini Awakening

In this introductory session, Raja will lay out the path and give you a deepening set of ideas and practices to help you prepare for your journey. Raja will review the materials taught in the initial 7-module course, introduce you to the 7-stage process he’ll be taking you through, and describe the outcomes, experiences, and transformation you can expect. He’ll also provide many of the tools you’ll need for the journey and tell you where and how to acquire any physical tools needed.

Module 1: The Secrets of Prana

Energy is everywhere, and we must learn how to tap into it and use it. There are over 72,000 nadis in the body radiating out of the heart, and prana flows through them to every cell in the body. The main nadis are the Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna, but there are five types of prana, as well as many subtle channels and other forms of energy in the body, including ojas, tejas, and other subtle forces.

Raja will guide you through this universe of energy and teach you advanced techniques for raising your prana and inner vibrations, including simple practices or hacks to rapidly summon the energy of Kundalini Shakti during the day and at the start of your meditations.

In this 2-session module, you’ll:

Be given detailed energization techniques for activating prana within your body and especially in the First Sun
Discover how the nadis work and how to allow energy to flow throughout your body and into others for healing
Receive simple hacks to manage this energy in your everyday life — and tools to overcome fear, anxiety, hunger, and negative energies
Examine the nature of food and glands, and how the nadis, prana, ojas, and tejas work with the digestive system, the parasympathetic nervous system, and the cerebrospinal fluid
Discover how to live harmoniously with this energy on a day-to-day basis and use it in everything to manage your life and be able to truly relax
Discover the true nature and meaning of Ganesh, Kartik, Chamundaya, the mantras and mudras, and how Kundalini Shakti works through these archetypes to free you up for higher consciousness

Module 2: The Garland of Letters

The word Kula or Kaula literally means “group” or “petals” (along the spine). In the Kundalini system, the chakras are perceived as lotuses with petals, and this map of your being is comprised of 50 petals and 7 chakras. The garland is made up of 50 letters of the Sanskrit alphabet and 8 seed sounds. We loop around the letters twice and then rise up the chakras through the Sushumna nadi and that forms the 108 sounds. These 108 sounds are the Shaktis, or the key Goddesses inside your being.

The drawing of this journey is called the Garland of Letters — you will discover the sacred sounds of 108 different parts of your body and learn how to tune in to these Shaktis to transform your life.
