Location: Portugal, near Lisbon — Enxara Retreat Center
This retreat is an invitation to step beyond the patterns of the mind and reconnect with the intelligence of the heart.
Love is Unconditional! We wish it and dream it, but how can we be unconditional with our love when jealousy, envy, possession, and manipulation are ruling the expressions of our hearts? In Tantra, there are no intellectual answers to this; there are only challenging situations and precise methods that can awaken the capacity for unconditional love. In the tradition of the Kaula Heart of All, unconditional love is to be found in the dynamic of our relationships. The practices from this Tantric tradition are based on exploring awareness in relation to oneself, other people, animals, plants, and the whole of nature. In the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra (VBT), an ancient Shivaist Tantra scripture, unconditional love is explored through methods involving the body, breath, senses, pleasure, and sounds. These traditions emphasise Devotion and Gratitude as the primary keys to unconditional love.
AHAM LOVE Retreat offers precious meditation methods and situations originating in the Tantra Kaula of the Heart of All and the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra (VBT). The practices explore the many facets of the Heart through relating, praying, singing, and body awareness practices. The retreat aims to support you in stepping out of the mind’s mechanical reactions to the Heart’s spontaneous response by uprooting yourself from conditionings that prevent the expression of love.
This profound journey supports transmuting the energy of lower emotions to vibrant emotions such as gratitude and, ultimately, unconditional love. The process offers you the opportunity to discover your capacity for love, silence, transparency, and clarity. It connects you to your blissful being, high-sensitive awareness, and a vibrant heart.
ABOUT THE MASTER
Since 1999, Pema has been reviving the ancient tantric principles of the Kaula, based on practices that raise awareness of our actions and relations in our daily life. She offers these insights to others in different ways: The Kaula Heart of All, a family, which together evolves and creates a life rooted in love and awareness; WildTantra, where she offers retreats based on ancient rituals, initiations, and methods transmuting life energy into the highest form of consciousness and love; Pema Walk in Beauty, books where Pema transmits her Tantric experiences through stories which reveal Tantric wisdom from various lineages.
Her unique way of transmitting Tantra carries within it a great deal of wildness, love, sharpness and an unpredictable sense of humour, all of which add freshness to the intensive retreats which she leads around the globe.
