                                Discover Your True Self

                                Picture
                                What is the most essential you that is present regardless of thought or emotion? Who or what has been present for all of your life experience? How does this spirit of constancy touch your life? Mukti will speak on these compelling topics and explore them with the audience through questions and answers pointing directly to the true nature of self.

                                These satsangs will offer a potent blend of stillness and dynamic inquiry.  Attendees will have an opportunity to tend to inner and outer silence and to nourish the brightness that shines through delusion.


                                In her teaching, Mukti points audiences back to their natural state of wholeness or undivided consciousness. Licensed in acupuncture and certified to teach hatha yoga, Mukti has a love of the whole of experience in form, as well as the formless.

                                For more information about Mukti, please visit:  www.muktisource.org.
