NAVARATRI
The Nine Nights of the Divine Mother
October 3rd - 12th 2024
Shivananda Swamiji Ashram in Puglia, Italy
Join us at Shivananda’s Ashram for Nine Nights of Celebrating the Divine Mother, the Great Shakti, the Creator of Life! This ancient tradition is the symbolic celebration of nine nights of Deity Mother Durga battling, the light against the dark. On day 10 THE LIGHT IS VICTORIOUS, the powerful Feminine rejoices. This event, we connect and worship our internal Shakti and the external Divine Mother Durga, the Goddess of power, energy and wisdom!
Experiencing Navaratri with Shivananda Swami holds a unique manifestation of this traditional event, as it will open for each of us a deep healing journey of our maternal and ancient ancestral lineage with the Divine grace of the Mother.
We plunge into a deep connection with our inner feminine, opening ourselves to the beauty and powerful innate nature of the Divine Mother Shakti.
On a nine night discovery and transformation, we authentically expand to embrace sisterhood and learn to value, honor and embody the wisdom of our inner Divine Shakti and the external Goddesses that are in constant care of us.

It is considered a form of Durga that embodies the courage and inner strength to face the challenges of life. By strength you understand that you have no lack, and by lack you must develop your strength, thus returning to your natural state of abundance.
As we open to our inner Shakti, we allow our true purpose, our purpose as creators of the universe, to manifest before our eyes and illuminate our unique path to manifesting all things.
In this transcendence, we simultaneously teach our Shiva, our masculine side, how to unconditionally listen, support, and ground in it’s essence.
A transformation into a Divine Shiva, one who has the consciousness to celebrate the feminine energy. When this understanding radiates, the vital and joyful dance of our balanced Shiva | Shakti Union internally and externally, eternally flow.

I Am a being of Light,ancient,wise I emanate and vibrate in the frequency of pure Love,Purity is my Power.
Thank you Master for letting me experience being my own Master.
Amsha
Meeting Shivananda was like waking up from a long sleep. The energy of love that vibrates through him and his mission encouraged me to look inside myself deeply. It helped me realise that I have the strength and the power to make all those choices that, before, I wasn’t even allowing myself to consider. Looking into his eyes was like looking at the entire Universe in one breath. That meeting opened a door to my heart and pushed me to listen carefully to the requests that were coming from my Soul. Shivananda is helping me remember what it means to love and to live in love with love, and this flow begins with loving myself all the way. When I love myself, everything vibrates in love. I will always be grateful for what I am experiencing in this time of my life.
Adhārā
My mother, Jai Ma! She sometimes looks at me and says: you are not of this world, you are of the world to come!
When you enter the Ashram you are in the world to come! In the Truth everything is open and the colors are more vivid, time stops, you speak the language of love everyone understands you and you understand them with heartfelt glances a family that finds itself and then there is real laughter because LIFE is Joy

Shivananda's Messages:
🔱
Every one of you is your own Guru.
This is the first task and understanding of those, who choose a Guru, to recognize their inner voice and align their whole personality with the soul, by nullifying and transforming the dual nature of individuality and developing discernment in the Heart.
Remove the implants that separate you from your soul and your soul from Spirit, so that duality is transcended for the collective unity.
