There are forces within us that do not dissolve through suppression, yet are ripe for transformation.

The Heart of Vajra-Yoginī retreat approaches these energies directly through the disciplined frameworks of Śākta Tantra and Vajrayāna Buddhism. Rather than pathologizing passion or attempting to eliminate it, we will examine how Tantric traditions refine and transmute affective intensity into clarity, devotion, and awakened awareness.

Vajrayoginī stands at the threshold of desire, obsession, longing, and craving. She signals an intensity that can either contract the heart – or awaken it.

Across seven days, we will engage primary texts, structured mantra practice, visualization, and embodied ritual within a coherent philosophical arc.

The focus is neither therapeutic catharsis nor abstract scholarship, but the cultivation of a dynamic relationship with transformative energy itself.

Vajrayoginī functions not merely as an object of worship, but as a ritual and aesthetic technology — a deliberately constructed field of practice through which contraction can be metabolized.
