Returning Home
Australasia’s Kundalini community gathers again this November, in the majestic Hinterland, Tyalgum Ridge Retreat to celebrate our 5th Kundalini Festival. Over the past ten years, we have planted the seed of consciousness in Mother Earth, watered that seed with our commitment, seva, and love, ignited our spiritual warrior with transformational fire, breathed the air that fed and healed our collective hearts. Now we have reached the element that made all this possible, Ether; it's time to return home and Attune to Oneness.
SAVE THE DATE / November 24-26th 2023
This Kundalini Yoga Festival Australia (KYFA) will be a rare opportunity to gather with global Kundalini Community, connect with like-minded souls, whilst experiencing the powerful and transformational energy of the fifth tattva (element) - Ether (Akash) - to be.
The Symbolism of the Ether Tattva
The tattvas are the medium of life, constantly playing and changing our bodies, minds, seasons, and everything around us. As magical as it all is, we rarely take any notice and miss the opportunity to balance our life's experience with these five tattvas. If we can create the conditions in our life to match these elements, we are able to extract the assets from the tattvas and live a deeper, more truthful and harmonise existence.
Without these five tattvas life would not be possible. First comes earth, our raw survival instinct, our need for food, stability, and solidity. Water is next, the social relationships that green the earth, and transforms a bare house into a home. Then fire, that brings warmth, heat, spiritual, and romantic transformational passions that imbue those structures with meaning and value. Air moves things in life, it's the imagination, the oxygen that feeds the flames; finally, Ether, the space, the consciousness, or enlightenment.
Ether is without the firmness of earth, the coolness of water, the heat of fire or even the movement of wind. It is therefore the very essence of 'emptiness'. The space provided by it is filled by other 4 elements. The space element is the most subtle of all elements, connected to the ear, the mouth (the voice) the organ of action, for sound and Ether are considered the same. Though ether may seem like nothing but emptiness, it imbibes within itself everything and anything that you can see and perceive. The entire universe is a space that has millions of stars, galaxies, and other gaseous or solid matter. The earth is a small part of that vast space and humans are an even smaller part of the cosmos.
When we remind ourselves that all five tattvas are sacred within and around us, that enlightenment, which represents the purification and completion of consciousness, requires a harmonious relationship between the four preceding elements.Then the whole universe will be ours.
What to expect from this festival
It’s a time to get back to basics, camping, cabins, sleeping under the stars. A chance to unplug from technology, reset your nervous system, detox with healthy vegetarian meals.
