How does Shakti meditation work?
Our entire experience of life is colored through the filter of the mind. The mind can be compared to the ocean. On the surface there are ripples of thoughts. In the depths there is a quiet unconscious mind that stores stresses and impressions.
According to science these stresses or memories run the most of our behavior automatically and also lead us to unpleasant emotions like anger, sorrow, fears, depression, etc. But stress is not your true nature; it’s just impurity of the mind.
On the bottom of the ocean is your real nature and the source of all thought: the Self, Absolute, Infinity, Being (Plato), Kingdom of Heaven (Christ), Brahman, Atman, Tao (Chinese), Nirvana (Buddha), unchanging, perfect and a divine part of you, that is full of energy, peace, intelligence, creativity, enthusiasm, bliss and love.
People search for joy outside, but their Self is the source of all joy.
Live your full Potential
In Shakti we use the power of Mantra to take us to the Self, to dive in, get in touch with, experience a state of eternal bliss and happiness and then we naturally remove some stresses.
When your mind is clean, you start manifesting the qualities of the Self, your intelligence, focus and inner talents develop, thinking becomes clearer, addictions disappear, intuition grows, health improves, etc.
Shakti meditation is not a set of beliefs, a philosophy or a religion, nor do you need to change your lifestyle. It’s a scientific way to manifest your fullest physical, mental and spiritual potential.

Common questions
Mantra is derived from two Sanskrit words, Manas can be translated to mind or heart and Tra is a tool or vehicle. The mantras are made up of primordial sounds, which are the most essential sounds of nature that have the powerful effect of taking our awareness within, to the most essential state of our being.
Because the mantra resonates with your nervous system, it is super-efficient and quickly enables you to release your stress, expand your horizons and access your deepest core. When the mind is in this quiet state, your brain functioning is optimal and your body also rests very deeply.
The authentic Vedic mantra technique is easy and highly effective in calming the mind. That is proven by modern science as well. In Shakti, you don’t need to do anything – the mantra does it for you!
