We will find out who the Elementals are – the Elemental Beings and the Tower Guardians. We will learn about the Holy Wheel of Medicine of the 4 Directions and discover how the energy of individual Elements is related to the seasons and the Chakra System.

The workshop is conducted by an expert in shamanism and tantrism, Anand Rudra – founder of the True Tantra School, son of a Mexican shaman, grandson of a Mexican Yaqui Indian healer. In his knowledge, he combines academic knowledge, practical experience and ancient practices. Rituals include tribal traditions: Olmecs, Aztecs, Balinese, Dravidians, Siberians, Filipinos and Mayans.

According to Ananda Rudra, tantra is understood as the vibration of sexual energy leading through the breath and body, to consciousness and supra-consciousness, Supra Nature and Supra Consciousness. And tantra and shamanism are ways of healing and development aimed at raising consciousness.

Both paths are based on 3 dimensions: the physical body; the astral body and the causal body. Science and Nature, shamanism and tantra meet halfway. Tantric shamanic knowledge combines both aspects. It is one of the main aspects and tools that tantric shamanism uses to heal, connect with the universe and Supra-Nature.

The benefits and experiences you can experience on this journey:

• Increased self-awareness: Through various practices and techniques related to shamanism and tantra, you can become more sensitive to your thoughts, emotions and physical sensations. This can lead to a deeper understanding of yourself and your place in the world.
• Connection to Nature: Many shamanic practices involve working with the world of Nature: through plants, animal guides or through the energies of the Elements. Through this connection with Nature, you can feel a greater sense of harmony and balance in your life.
• Spiritual growth: Shamanism and tantra are often viewed as spiritual paths, with the potential for profound experiences and transformation. If you are looking to deepen your spiritual connection and understanding, these practices can be a powerful tool.
• Healing and Transformation: Shamanic and tantric practices are often used for healing purposes: whether physical, emotional or spiritual. By working with energy and awareness, you can release old patterns and trauma, moving towards greater health and wholeness.
• Community and support: Many practitioners of shamanism and tantra meet in communities, such as workshops or training. This can provide a supportive and nourishing environment for your journey, as well as a chance to connect with like-minded people.

During this training we will also:

• work with various tantric and shamanic rituals aimed at raising your personal vibration;
• awaken intuition, which is an essential tool for generating an internal state of higher consciousness and for strengthening your powers;
• we will experience the power of ancient tantra and its tools as a gateway to healing and creating bonds with our own higher self, superconsciousness and the Universes.
• we will learn how to achieve a different state of mind, and how this experience is related to healing.

ANNUAL TRAINING - A JOURNEY THROUGH THE ELEMENTS AND THE CHAKRA SYSTEM.

TANTRIC - SHAMANIC MYSTICAL EXPERIENCE.

The annual training in working with the Elements is a series of workshops covering practical and theoretical deep ancient knowledge in the field of shamanism and tantrism, personal experiences, ceremonies, rituals, rites of passage and initiations. The entire training is designed for you to understand and learn to work with the Power of the Elements. In shamanism there is an internal connection of everything with everything and with what is related to our human path. Nature, body and consciousness are connected to the idea of the elements in both tantra and shamanism. During the year of training, we will go through a complete journey through the Elements, develop a deep understanding of each of them, and review different methods and traditions.

ELEMENTAL BEINGS

Elemental beings are thought to possess their own unique powers and energies. In some traditions, they are venerated as deities in their own right. In others, they are seen as helpful spirits that can be called upon for assistance. Whether they are viewed as friends or foes, elementals have always played a central role in witchcraft and magic. Elemental beings have been a part of witchcraft and magic for centuries. In many traditions, they are seen as powerful forces that can be called upon to help achieve goals or manifest change. They can also be linked to other natural phenomena, such as the seasons or the phases of the moon.

Calling the Quarters Elementals are often associated with the four elements of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water and can be the spirits called upon when “calling the elements” or “calling the quarters”.

What is an elemental being?

Elemental is a creature type describing a sentient being or spirit composed of elemental energy. The most common varieties are those of the classical elements, expressing themselves as air, fi re, earth, and water elementals.

They are most easily found as mythic being described in occult and alchemical works from around the time of the European Renaissance, and particularly elaborated in the 16th-century works of Paracelsus. According to Paracelsus and his subsequent followers, there are four categories of elementals:

• Gnomes: Earth/North
• Undines: Water/West
• Sylphs: Air/East
• Salamanders: Fire/South

CALLING THE GUARDIAN OF THE WATCHTOWERS

A watchtower or guardian in ceremonial magical traditions is the tutelary spirit of one of the four cardinal points or quarters (East, South, West, and North). In many magical traditions, they are understood to be Enochian angels or the Archangels Uriel, Raphael, Michael, and Gabriel. They are also variously associated in other traditions with each of the four classical elements (Earth, air, fi re, and water) or stars (Fomalhaut, Aldebaran, Regulus, and Antares). Originating with the Enochian tradition of John Dee, a version of it was popularized by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, which became hugely influential in modern Western Esotericism, including Wicca.

The watchtowers are invoked during the ritual of casting a magic circle.

ELEMENTS AND SEASONS

It’s common to also see associations between elements and seasons. In witchcraft, we see this most in the Wiccan Wheel of the Year but throughout the history or healing, it’s been a very common practice. Each of the classical elements has associated humour , and each of those has an associated element.

• Air (spring)
• Fire (Summer)
• Earth (Autumn)
• Water (Winter)

In Ayurveda, a year consists of six seasons:

• Shishira (winter),
• Vasanta (spring),
• Grishma (summer)
• Uttarayan Varsha (monsoon),
• Sharata (autumn),
• Hemanta (late autumn).

The teachings of Traditional Chinese Medicine map out five seasons, rather than the four we’re used to observing in the West. Each season brings its own energy, and its own rhythms, that can help us tap into what our bodies need most.

Elements & Seasons:

• Wood and Spring
• Fire and Summer
• Earth and Late Summer
• Metal and Autumn
• Water and Winter

THE MEDICINE WHEEL

The Medicine Wheel, sometimes known as the Sacred Hoop, has been used by generations of various Native American nations for health and healing. It embodies the Four Directions. Different nations and tribes interpret the Medicine Wheel differently. Each of the Four Directions (East, South, West, and North) is typically represented by a distinctive colour, such as black, red, yellow, and white, which for some stands for the human races.

The Directions can also represent:

• Stages of life: birth, youth, adult (or elder),
• Death Seasons of the year: spring, summer, winter, fall
• Aspects of life: spiritual, emotional, intellectual, physical
• Elements of nature: fire (or sun), air, water, and earth
• Animals: Eagle, Bear, Wolf, Buffalo
• Ceremonial plants: tobacco, sweet grass, sage, cedar

A JOURNEY THROUGH THE ELEMENTALS AND CHAKRA SYSTEM

Through tantric (chakras) & shamanic (elementals) rituals and practices, we will heighten the energetic frequency and prepare to illuminate the shadows. We will revisit different traditions from the tribal families of the Dravidians, Mayas, Tibetans, Aztecs, and Balinese to

discover our shadow and light.

EARTH (Root Chakra)

The womb of the human being, our root, and our sexual being. The Matrix of humanity is in our pelvic floor in connection with our womb. The Root Chakra represents the density of things of life. In the first survival behaviors, our primitive selves are installed.

The 5 Shadow Qualities of the Root Chakra are:

• neediness, greed, unawareness, laziness, and fear.

5 ways to integrate these shadow qualities are:

• Find the Gift in the Shadow,
• Emotional freedom technique (EFT)/Tapping,
• Love Yourself with the Shadow Quality (Work with Your Inner Child),
• Elicit Memories of Being
• Shadow Quality and Take Back Your Shadow Projections.

By using branches, the earth - as a base of mother earth - flowers and other objects from natura we will learn how to build up a Temazcal (Mexican Sweat Lodge), hereby reconnecting with our grounded self and consecrating the earth.

WATER (Sacral Chakra)

Our emotional body & intimate self, the movement of co-creation and the power to act. The most powerful energy is generated in this energy center. Sexual Energy itself can be a healing tool to unblock and liberate issues from our past and present. It is also a way to invigorate who we are to embrace the power and expand.

The 5 Shadow Qualities of the Sacral Chakra (and Their Gift) are:

• Codependence (Gift = Willingness to Connect Deeply with Another)
• Crazy/Too Emotional (Gift = Arouse and Enliven Self and Others)
• Leaky/Inappropriate (Gift = Opening Self and Others to New Things “Outside the Box”)
• Promiscuous/Slutty (Gift = Awakens Our Sexual Passion and Pleasure)
• Too Sensitive (Gift = Empathizing and Harmonizing with Self and Others + Psychic Skills)

We will connect with the energy of the Ocean Waters of Mon island to be reborn in a deep Ritual to engage in the cleaning and balancing of the second chakra.

We will develop a Shamanic-Tantric Ritual for Ixcuiname, Kama, and Aphrodite to awaken our sexual energy and develop the capabilities of these three main goddesses. An Orgasmic Journey through the Elementals. We will also perform a Special Tantra Kriya Yoga lesson regarding only the Second Chakra.

FIRE (Manipura chakra)

When matter (earth element), movement & prana are combined it creates fi re, our personal power. Manipura is the key to different aspects of life in our physical energy bodies. It carries the power to transform and is the link between the lower and upper chakras. The power of decision and transmuting emotions. We will go deep into the most ancient and powerful ritual that humankind has, with a unique ritual that is manifested in almost all the different belief systems of humanity. The fi re ceremony is an ancient shamanistic ritual and when combined with Tantric practices, we are connecting the strength from both traditions into one.

The 5 Shadow Qualities of the Solar Plexus Chakra (and Their Gift) are:

• Selfi sh/Narcissistic (Gift = Good Self-Care & Ability to Care for Others)
• Mean/Abusive (Gift = Have Healthy Boundaries & Stand for Something)
• Arrogant/Condescending (Gift = Belief in Self/Confidence)
• Righteous/Know It All (Gift = Sharing Your Talents & Standing for What You Believe In)
• Controlling/Manipulative (Gift = Ability to Successfully Navigate the Physical World)

Besides the Fire Ceremony, we will show how Smudging (burning of sacred herbs) is an intrinsic part and extension of the fi re ceremony. We will perform a Mexican Smudging Ceremony, the copal ceremony and the power that can hold this as a medical tool.

AIR (Hearth chakra)

The unifying chakra, the element of winter. It brings the lower sexual energies to the heart and beyond. Our experience of nurturing and love – the spaciousness of air. The heart represents the unification of sexual energy (also understood as life force energy) and emotions. When both are in balance it creates an energy that is stronger than anything else. KA-energy in some cultures is compared to the energy that can be generated by unconditional love for everything. Ka energy is the one that gives the impulse before co-creating something. It’s the energy that put the leap forward to the Big-Bang process.

There will be a Karessa Ritual, to transform sexual energies from earthly pleasures and their often conflicting consequences into heightened awareness and Orgasmic Bliss. The object of this is to work with higher frequency energy and then take the person to a state of complete connection to supra- consciousness.

The 5 Shadow Qualities of the Heart Chakra (and Their Gift) are:

• Dependent (Gift = Our Humanity & Connections to Others)
• Martyr (Gift = Seeing & Valuing Our Contributions)
• Victim (Gift = Awareness of Our Pain & Taking Responsibility)
• Weak (Gift = Cultivates Connection & Compassion)
• Doormat (Gift = Awareness of Your Big Heart & Oneness with Others)

ETHER (Vissudha chakra)

Expression and resonance, spiritual karma and akasha (spaciousness) - the etheric body. Mahamudra Rite as a gateway to the Soul. After having worked the pure emptiness & the complete everything with this ancient Ritual, we will share an initiation to the Cobra Breathing and specialized TKY to prepare body and energy to activate your Pineal but also awaken the inner wisdom to be connected to the Supra- Conscious.

The 5 Shadow Qualities of the Throat Chakra:

• Liar (Gift = Imagination)
• Aimless/Lacking Purpose (Gift = Being in the Moment)
• Fake/Inauthentic (Gift = the Ability to Play Bigger)
• Inexpressive (Gift = Mastery of Listening)
• Crooked (Gift = Playful, Powerful, Irreverence).

THE SIXTH CHAKRA (Ajna chakra)

No elements are connected with the third eye, because it leads a person beyond all forms of matter. Consciousness located at this center involves introspection or the capacity to see within. The third eye contains the capacity to “see” in a way that is unattainable by the physical eyes. At this center, one has the capacity for deeper vision. This is the realm of intuition, inner knowledge, and wisdom.

The 5 Shadow Qualities of the Third Eye Chakra (and their gifts) are:

• Unintuitive/Not Psychic (Gift = Develops Logic and Reasoning)
• Superficial/Shallow (Gift = Expediency and Efficiency)
• Bias/Prejudicial (Gift = Feeling Safe and Included)
• Over-Thinking (Gift = Options and Possibilities)
• Skeptical (Gift = Being Grounded and Realistic

TRUE TANTRA SCHOOL

True Tantra is based on the ancient teaching method, part of which is an independent and complementary techniques. When you learn Tantra, you have to understand and experience all its aspects:

• Ancient Kriya Yoga Tantra; the rituals as the moving energy method and meditations (yandras and mantras)
• Sacred Sexuality (Sacred Connection and Sacred Conscious Touch)
• Meditation (utilising Your intention and no meditation approch)
• Swahara Yoga (Pranayama Knowledge).

True Tantra had become one of the first institutions within Spain and part of Europe to give a real methodology to a Tantra Session. All this professional effort has become in order to build a group of masseurs, therapists, tantra monitors, Tantrikas (Docents), Monitors of Ancient Tantra Kriya Yoga and Teachers on Ancient Tantra Kriya Yoga. Each professional has to sit several oral and practical exams and each year they renew their knowledge not only to show what they know but also to get to know more methods and to deepen the Tantra practice more. All these people have to fulfil the ethical values of our True Tantra school. Web: www.truetantra.eu
