Living the View: Non-Dual Tantric Meditation for Daily Life with Lisa Witter
Advertisement
In non-dual Tantra, meditation is the gateway to recognizing the truth of who and what you are. In this twice-monthly class, you’ll explore foundational non-dual teachings from the Tantric tradition, paired with guided meditations designed to bring those teachings into direct experience.
Each session introduces a core theme drawn from classical Shaiva Tantra and is brought to life through potent meditative practices. You’ll work with breath, mantra, visualization, and the subtle body, with the aim not to transcend your experience, but to fully inhabit it with clarity, presence, and depth.
Every class includes a short teaching, a guided meditation, and space for integration. Over time, you’ll begin to recognize what it means to live from “the view,” not as a concept, but as a felt reality that infuses your daily life with wisdom, ease, and grounded presence.
What to Expect:
A short teaching on a monthly theme rooted in non-dual Tantric wisdom
A guided seated meditation using breath, mantra, visualization, and subtle body awareness
Time for integration, reflection, and optional sharing
All levels are welcome. No prior experience or knowledge of classical Tantra necessary.
Please note: This class is rooted in the classical non-dual Tantric tradition (Trika Śaivism), and is not associated with neo-Tantra or practices centered on sacred sexuality. The focus is on meditative, philosophical, and energetic teachings designed to support deep self-realization and integration.
