Looking toward the Continental Divide at the Blacktail Ranch

Invitational Retreats
Blacktail Ranch
June 16-23 and 23-30, 2007

Come join us at the beautiful Blacktail Ranch at Wolf Creek, Montana for a week of meditation, movement and study. The ranch is in a peace valley used by several American Indian tribes for over 6,000 years. Tools from the Clovis people and animal bones dating as far back as the Ice Age, over 20,000 years ago have been discovered on the ranch. The ranch consists of 8,000 acres of hills, grasslands, forest and mountains. The owners, Tag and Sandra, and the rest of the staff are warm, welcoming people who have a wonderful tradition of service. The abundant food is gourmet vegetarian, and the accommodations are very comfortable.

Practical Tantra: Living as a Warrior Sage
The SuperConscious Meditation tradition of Swami Rama is a sophisticated tantric tradition from the Himalayan Mountains. For those initiated into this tradition, it is often difficult to find authentic teachings that go beyond the introductory practices and principles of Raja Yoga which serve as the foundation practices for the more sophisticated tantric traditions of Shaktism and Kashmir Saivism. In this seminar, we explore the sophisticated philosophies and practices that are the heart of SuperConscious Meditation.  You will have the opportunity to share insights and study with those who are just beginning their journey and with those who have traveled this road for many years. We will explore the deeper tantric traditions and delve into the practices, principles and insights that illumine the Sages of the Himalayas.  We will also enjoy hiking and a float trip down the Blackfoot River.

The principles of genuine trantric traditions lead to independence of thought and spiritual knowledge. The power of the Divine lies within each and everyone. Tantric philosophy and practices are designed to help you recognize this power. Come and discover the real teacher within. Join us in an exploration of personal mastery, creative power and joy.

In the first retreat (June 16-23) we begin an exploration of Swami Rama’s book “The Perennial Psycholgy of the Bhagavad Gita.” This brilliant, insightful book is rich with practical insight and wisdom. This is quite possibly the greatest of all of the Master’s writings. In the second retreat (June 23 – 30), we continue our study of the Pratyabhijna-hradayam, a classical text within the Saivite tantric tradition. Ksemaraja was one of the great sages of the powerful tantric tradition, and this book is written in such a way as to illumine the path for even the most naïve of students.

Dates: June 16-23 and/or June 23-30, 2007
Seminar Fee: $1,750 or 2,950 for both (all inclusive)
