What You’ll Discover In Advanced Kundalini Shakti Initiation
In Advanced Kundalini Shakti Initiation, Raja will guide you through the fundamental spiritual skills and competencies you’ll need to gently and safely awaken your Kundalini energy — the evolutionary force of sacred feminine power within you — for healing, vitality, success, and true inner peace, while remaining firmly grounded during this time of unrest and uncertainty.
This Advanced Kundalini Shakti Initiation course will feature teachings, training sessions, and experiential practices with Raja. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to properly explore your Kundalini Shakti energy.
These 21 sessions — each of which features teachings and Q&A, followed by a 15-minute meditation with Raja — are designed to take you deep into the Sri Kula, Kali Kula, Kriya, and Shiva Shakti traditions of Kundalini awakening and nurturing with deepening practices and exercises.
In Raja’s initial Advanced Kundalini Shakti Initiation course, Awakening Your Kundalini, he has guided more than 1,500 students in awakening their Kundalini Shakti, with the majority also actively participating in the course Facebook community. Now he wants to take you and seekers like you who have been earnestly exploring their inner lives into the deeper aspects of Shakti and Shiva.
When you enroll in the Awakening Your Kundalini Advanced Program, you’ll be lovingly supported by this vibrant community of spiritual seekers. Raja himself regularly joins the Facebook discussion, answers questions, and offers additional insights, guidance, and support. You’ll also be able to contact Raja directly with more personal questions.
Please note that Raja highly encourages all participants to complete the 7-module Advanced Kundalini Shakti Initiation course, Awakening Your Kundalini (which is included in your registration!), prior to beginning this Advanced Kundalini Shakti program. Otherwise, it will be difficult to keep pace with the more advanced teachings.
Introductory Session: The Kula Shakti & Kriya Path of Kundalini Awakening
In this introductory session, Raja will lay out the path and give you a deepening set of ideas and practices to help you prepare for your journey. Raja will review the materials taught in the initial 7-module course, introduce you to the 7-stage process he’ll be taking you through, and describe the outcomes, experiences, and transformation you can expect. He’ll also provide many of the tools you’ll need for the journey and tell you where and how to acquire any physical tools needed.
Module 1: The Secrets of Prana
Energy is everywhere, and we must learn how to tap into it and use it. There are over 72,000 nadis in the body radiating out of the heart, and prana flows through them to every cell in the body. The main nadis are the Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna, but there are five types of prana, as well as many subtle channels and other forms of energy in the body, including ojas, tejas, and other subtle forces.
Raja will guide you through this universe of energy and teach you advanced techniques for raising your prana and inner vibrations, including simple practices or hacks to rapidly summon the energy of Kundalini Shakti during the day and at the start of your meditations.
In this 2-session module, you’ll:
- Be given detailed energization techniques for activating prana within your body and especially in the First Sun
- Discover how the nadis work and how to allow energy to flow throughout your body and into others for healing
- Receive simple hacks to manage this energy in your everyday life — and tools to overcome fear, anxiety, hunger, and negative energies
- Examine the nature of food and glands, and how the nadis, prana, ojas, and tejas work with the digestive system, the parasympathetic nervous system, and the cerebrospinal fluid
- Discover how to live harmoniously with this energy on a day-to-day basis and use it in everything to manage your life and be able to truly relax
- Discover the true nature and meaning of Ganesh, Kartik, Chamundaya, the mantras and mudras, and how Kundalini Shakti works through these archetypes to free you up for higher consciousness
Module 2: The Garland of Letters
The word Kula or Kaula literally means “group” or “petals” (along the spine). In the Kundalini system, the chakras are perceived as lotuses with petals, and this map of your being is comprised of 50 petals and 7 chakras. The garland is made up of 50 letters of the Sanskrit alphabet and 8 seed sounds. We loop around the letters twice and then rise up the chakras through the Sushumna nadi and that forms the 108 sounds. These 108 sounds are the Shaktis, or the key Goddesses inside your being.
The drawing of this journey is called the Garland of Letters — you will discover the sacred sounds of 108 different parts of your body and learn how to tune in to these Shaktis to transform your life.
In this 3-session module, you’ll:
- Be shown how to identify and feel the 50 lotus petals, 6 beej sounds, and 2 high sounds that make up your chakras and allow Kundalini to come alive
- Find out how to draw a Garland of Letters through these petals to awaken the 108 Shaktis in your body, travel through the 3 Suns, and emerge up to the Thousand Suns
- Study each Shakti and each chakra and understand the archetypes as they relate to our bodies, minds, and higher consciousness
- Fully experience the power of each chakra as we travel up from Muladhara to Sahasrara, one at a time
- Learn the song of the Shat Chakra Japa and become a mystical musician and magician, bridging heaven and Earth
Module 3: The Sri Chakra & the Sacred Geometry of Your Being
Your body is a living temple, and if you understand how to navigate around it, you will discover sacred geometries mapped into every part of your being. In this module, you’ll delve into how to become a living temple, or a Sri Chakra Meru, so that you can call upon Shakti in your daily life.
The Sri Chakra Yantra is a map of your consciousness and cosmology that goes from the center of your highest being to living in the world of elements and planets. It is a map to navigate through consciousness and take you from Earth consciousness to the heavenly realms of your divine nature.
In this 3-session module, you’ll:
- Be shown how to draw and navigate a Sri Chakra Yantra and discover how it’s a map of your consciousness
- Meet the Devis, Devas, and Yogis/Yoginis that make up the nodes of the Sri Yantra
- Find out how to create and energize a 3-D Sri Chakra Meru and see it as a model of your body reaching up towards superconsciousness of Lalitha

- Explore how to become one with your Sri Yantra or Meru and allow it to guide your life and attract power and the blessings of the Devis (Shaktis) into your life; the Meru is a communication and transmission portal between dimensions and between you and your highest self
Module 4: The Manifestation & Healing Power of Sri Vidya
The heart center, aka the Second Sun, is the place where you can manifest everything you desire, including health, wellbeing, abundance, love, dreams, and visionary states. By learning how the heart transmits prana and intention through the 72,000 nadis (or channels) in your body and by mastering the art of surrender and devotion, you will become an advanced practitioner of manifestation and healing — and you’ll become better at serving humanity.
You’ll also discover how to connect the Third Eye to the heart so whatever you visualize can become a reality. Ultimately, you’ll be shown how to transmit this Shakti to others as healing, love, and empathy.
In this 3-session module, you’ll:
- Discover how to activate your heart chakra in advanced ways
- Learn how to send energy to any part of your body for healing and wellbeing
- Explore the power of Shakti and send it to anyone anywhere instantaneously as communication, healing, or love

- Experience the love and beauty of Krishna at the heart
- Meet Shyama, the Mahavidya (wisdom goddess) of heart opening, beauty, grace, creativity, and love
Module 5: The Maha Vidyas — Kali & the Removers of Obstacles
There is no light without darkness. Inside each of our bodies are 10 energies called the Maha Vidyas that address the nature of pain, suffering, death, time, negative emotions, and obstacles. They help us reconcile the golden energies of Sri Vidya with the reality that wherever there is light, there must be darkness as well. They also guard our nine sensory entry points in the body, and protect the tenth gate at the top of our heads in the Sahasrara that gives us access to the divine realms.
These energies, which all come under the umbrella of Maha Kali, represent the overcoming of all our fears — from death to the simplest darkness that stops us from seeing the light.
In this 3-session module, you’ll:
- Meet Kali, the 10 Mahavidyas, and their individual stories, powers, mantras, and rituals
- Discover their symbolism and esoteric meaning and how each one affects our lives
- Be shown how to work with them so that the darkness of life comes under your understanding and partial control, enabling you to see things as they really are
- Awaken your consciousness to live in the middle pillar flute between dark and light
- Discover how to navigate the Kundalini from the darkness of Earth to the vast darkness of deep consciousness without fear
Module 6: The Sky Walker & the Grace of Lalitha
As we cross the throat and enter the higher regions, we meet many interesting energies, beings, intelligences, light, sounds, and a vast inner space that is well worth exploring. As Kundalini cracks through into Brahma’s Cave and we discover the pineal gland, we meet Shiva, Varahi, and the land of Khechari.
In this 3-session module, you’ll:
- Find out how to really listen to your inner indriyas (or sounds) and discover the 3 ways in which you experience sound — as vibration, as vision, and as feelings
- Be shown how to move your Kundalini energy into your brain and open the route to Brahma’s Cave
- Find out how to fully open your Third Eye through sun gazing, mudras, and breath control

- Be shown how to see inside these realms and navigate them through the sounds of the Agya, Ham, Sham, and Om
- Meditate upon Lalitha and understand the power of Shakti as your body comes into being through the sacred descent of Shakti and grace
- Discover how to tune in to this grace and let it provide guidance in your life
Module 7: The Dance of Shiva & Shakti
A new conversation begins when Kundalini reaches the Third Eye, between Shiva and Shakti, and you prepare to plunge into the superconscious realms beyond the body. This meeting of Shiva and Shakti occurs at two places, the Nabhi (Manipura) and the Agya (Third Eye). Raja will introduce you to the classic teachings of the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra, a set of dialogues between Shiva and Shakti in which consciousness teaches the body and mind 112 different meditations to awaken to superconsciousness.
These 112 teachings encompass every meditation technique known to Eastern minds and is quite a revelation, as it dates back to the Tantras of early Shaivism and Buddhism. It is the greatest compendium of meditation ever written.
In this 3-session module, you’ll:
- Explore the teachings of the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra and what happens after Kundalini reaches up to the Third Eye and goes beyond Lalitha
- Discover how to meditate beyond mantra, form, vision, and sound
- Explore the art of open-eyed meditation and meditation on the black void — aka the Kaal Bhairav, which removes all ignorance and opens the path to true enlightenment
- Examine how you are living Shiva and Shakti in yourself
- Discover how the dance of Kundalini is the first step in the journey towards a cosmic dance between Shiva and Shakti and is happening inside you all the time
- Explore the beginnings of the vast superconscious realms beyond and taste them with Raja
