Kula Session: Shiva-Shakti Family Mandala
with Acharya Shunya

We are delighted to invite you to a sacred and transformative experience with Acharya Shunya: the Kula Session, every2 months, on 4th Saturdays, at 8:00 AM PT.

Support for Householder Sadasyas Using Shiva Shakti Archetypes

Every two months, on the fourth Saturday, we come together for a special gathering centered on the Shiva-Shakti Family Mandala—a living emblem of how divine union manifests within our householder lives. This session is not a formal lesson, but a heartfelt exchange:

This special opportunity invites both new and ongoing members to connect with Acharya Shunya in a non-teaching, conversational setting. Here, she shares candid insights from her own life and the lessons learned through her journey, while also engaging with reflections and experiences shared by students and disciples.

Meet the Archetypes You will Enocunter

In each Kula Session, you’ll engage with these divine archetypes until their qualities become part of your own inner mandala—a living map of consciousness and power guiding your life.

Shiva
– Embodies pure consciousness—an infinite stillness at the heart of all existence.
– His vahana, Nandi the bull, symbolizes unwavering devotion and a steadfast, devoted gaze.

Shakti
– The dynamic creative power that brings Śiva’s stillness into form and movement.
– Her lion vahana represents raw vocal strength and fearless, transformative expression.

Kartikeya
– God of courage and disciplined will—courage arises when Śiva and Śakti unite.
– His peacock carrier eats snakes, transmuting poisons into grace and beauty.

Ganesha
– Remover of obstacles and patron of synergy, harmonizing all endeavors with wisdom.
– His mouse vahana is restless until settled at Gaṇeśa’s feet, teaching focused surrender.

Ashoka Kumari
– Compassionate goddess who frees us from emotional suffering, planting seeds of inner joy.
– Riding her lion, she wields the raw power of voice to dispel sorrow and inspire the heart.

What Happens Inside a Kula Session?

Kula Sessions are designed to help you apply Vedic wisdom to the practical dimensions of life. Whether you have questions about your personal journey, relationships, or professional challenges, this is the space to seek guidance and explore how Vedic wisdom can empower and transform your path.

Ask for Guidance: Sadasyas are encouraged to bring up questions related to their own journey. You can frame your questions in universal terms or share with vulnerability, as long as you feel comfortable being open and receiving answers in a group setting.

Learn by Listening: If you prefer to remain silent, you can still gain immense insight by listening to the questions and experiences of others, which often reflect universal struggles and truths.
