RELATE TO OTHERS FROM
YOUR DEEPEST TRUTH
The arena of close relationships is often where we struggle most in life. We need a new paradigm, a coherent design for living, a value set that brings clarity to the ways we relate, coupled with modes of compassionate communication that help us understand each other.
This groundbreaking workshop draws on key teachings of the original Tantrik tradition that provide the clarity so needed in this area of life. We will explore in detail how the core Tantrik values of autonomy, radical authenticity, openness, self-empowerment, and intimacy with reality play out in relationships of all kinds- platonic, friends, family, work colleges, as well as romantic relationships
AWAKENED
RELATING
THE PRACTICES
How can you be 100% true to yourself and still get your needs met? How can you fully respect the principle of consent while exercising your full autonomy?
How can we honour each person's experience while simultaneously not getting caught in their mind-games? And how can we acknowledge the truth of oneness without falling into the trap of spiritual bypassing?
All these questions and more will be explored in depth, and you will receive Hareesh's unpublished "10 Principles of Awakened Relating".

FOR EVERY RETREAT TAKEN WITH US, YOU ARE PLANTING 5 TREES TO REDUCE YOUR CARBON EMISSIONS FOR FLYING, HELPING OFFSETTING THE EFFECTS TO CLIMATE CHANGE
AMANEcurated is IN LOVE with our partners Fifteen Trees(15trees.com.au), who are working hard to improve our fucked up relationship to the environment.
Due to the large number of flights being taken from participants and teacher to meet us, we feel it imperative to contribute to this cause by PLANTING AN AVERAGE OF 100 TREES PER RETREAT WE SERVE
If you'd like to plant more trees on your own, check out their cool project through the link above!
