"You are my Self, my core, my essence
the Goddess is my mind. 
My pranas are Your attendants 
My Body is Your temple.
Enjoying the objects of the senses 

is my worship of You.
O Benevolent One!"

— Śiva-mānasa-pūjā 

the diamond beauty 
of the goddess:
the tale of tantrik philosophy
w/eric shaw
Friday, May 31 7-8:30pm

In this yoga history and yoga philosophy lecture, we’ll learn how Tantra is more than sacred sex.  It is composed of a wide array of thrilling yoga practices and it reveals a world united and guided by Goddess energy, the creative life force.

We will learn how physical yoga (Hatha Yoga) came from this tradition.  With full historical accuracy, we’ll link Tantra’s 1,500 year history of deities, philosophies, and practices to the yoga of today.


Eric Shaw is a PhD candidate in Yoga Philosophy and Religion and is currently writing a history of modern yoga for Anusara Press. http://www.prasanayoga.com/
