Siddha Yoga Shaktipat Intensive 2024
in Honor of Baba Muktananda’s Mahasamadhi
A Golden Anniversary

September 15, 2024

Dear reader,

Namaste.

In just over a month, you will have the golden opportunity to participate in the Siddha Yoga Shaktipat Intensive in Honor of Baba Muktananda’s Mahasamadhi. This year, on the Siddha Yoga path, we are celebrating the 50th anniversary—the golden anniversary—of the Shaktipat Intensive, which Baba created and held for the first time in 1974.

The focus of the Siddha Yoga Shaktipat Intensive 2024 is Baba’s teaching:

“The body is the temple of the Self.”

During the Intensive, you will listen to the talk Baba gave on this transformational teaching on the very first day of the first Shaktipat Intensive in 1974. You will also explore the way Baba’s teaching enhances your understanding—and experience—of Gurumayi’s Message for 2024.

In the Intensive, Gurumayi bestows shaktipat-diksha—the awakening of Kundalini Shakti—through her sankalpa, her intention. This awakening makes it possible for us to experience, and ultimately become established in, the Self—the source of unwavering peace and joy within our own being. For those of you who have participated in a Shaktipat Intensive before, you know how this grace-filled event is a powerful way to commune with your own Self and revitalize your commitment to sadhana.

The Siddha Yoga Shaktipat Intensive is a one-day immersion in the Siddha Yoga teachings and practices. It will be held at participating Siddha Yoga Ashrams, meditation centers, and chanting and meditation groups on Saturday, October 26, or Sunday, October 27, depending on the location.

As the Siddha Yoga meditation teacher for this year’s Intensive, I invite you to make time to participate. I look forward to being with you in the sacred atmosphere of the Siddha Yoga Shaktipat Intensive 2024.

Warm regards,

Swami Ishwarananda
