Module 1: AWAKENING WOMANHOOD
The 1^st step to rediscovering who you really are

a weekend retreat (7-9 nov 2014)

By awakening the state of Ecstatic Womanhood, women will rediscover their extraordinary potential, and thus regain their true value. Woman’s inner universe is in mysterious connection with the Eternal Feminine, also called the Holy Ghost or Maha Shakti. Women used to be deified and worshipped as the images and embodiments of the Divine creative power.

We need to understand the importance of the state of Ecstatic Womanhood and of those traditional ways designed to awaken this state. In such a way, we can ourselves reclaim our true identity; become a goddess, a divine, deep, intricate being who vibrates in resonance with the divine superior energies. We will re-awaken and regain the inner power and esoteric knowledge of the initiating women.

In this retreat, we will explore:

Tantra’s wise perspective upon Women

Tantra as a system for personal development using everyday’s activities as a staircase to inner Heaven.
The Eternal Feminine, source of all womanhood
A critical objective perspective upon society
Woman’s role in modern society
Woman’s divine role
Ecstatic womanhood – the specific feminine qualities
The uniqueness of woman
Beauty, harmony and spirituality: the main "ingredients" of ecstatic womanhood
Awakening womanhood: love; generosity and common sense; unshakable hope; conscious, active, objective love; unshakable faith; remembering our Self; devotion; in tune with divine energies; humbleness; freedom; good memory and intelligence; the divine goal.
How the day of a spiritually awakened woman looks like.
