What students say about their journey

Selected reflections from participants across our programs — shared with care and gratitude.

have been practicing yoga for over twelve years. I knew the names — Chitta, Vritti, Nirodha — I had read three translations of the Sutras. But something about the way these teachings were delivered broke through the layer of knowing. In one particular session on the Kleshas, I suddenly saw so clearly how Asmita — the sense of I-ness — was operating in every single difficulty I had been carrying. I did not expect to weep during a philosophy course. The understanding that arose was not emotional — it was deeply quiet. I am grateful beyond words for this offering.

I have attended many spiritual retreats, listened to dozens of teachers, and read more books than I care to count. What I encountered here was something rarer — genuine transmission, not performance. The teachings on the nature of the witness and the illusion of the separate self were not presented as belief systems or maps to reach somewhere. They were offered as pointers to what is already the case. That distinction, small as it sounds, makes all the difference. I am still in the course and feel no urgency to arrive anywhere. That itself feels like progress.

I am not someone who uses words like “divine feminine” easily. I joined the Lalita Tripura programme out of curiosity more than conviction. What I found over those 21 days was a container so carefully and intelligently held that I could not help but soften. The combination of philosophy, daily practice, and the sangha of women held together something in me that I had not realised was fragmented. The teaching never asked me to believe anything. It only asked me to observe. And in that observation, something genuinely shifted. I have recommended this programme to every woman I trust.
