Heart of Consciousness Membership
The membership program offers you a means to join a global community of authentic practitioners focused on nondual Trika Śaivism & Kuṇḍalinī Sādhana. Becoming a member of Heart of Consciousness (HoC) will provide you with direct access to Swami Khecaranatha (Nathaji) — in person and on-demand — and to his current and archived teaching materials. We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to interact with Nathaji and our growing community of spiritual practitioners who meet regularly for retreats, immersions in Hawaii, and many live sessions.
Heart of Consciousness offers two levels of Membership - Yogin (Free) and Sādhaka (Paid).
The Yogin Membership includes live-streaming open-eye transmission classes (generally Tu/Th at 7 pm Pacific when on Standard Time and at 8 pm during Daylight Savings), Nathaji's Weekly Reflections, and several guided meditations.
The Sādhaka Membership adds Teatime (a regular interactive connection with Nathaji and the community at large), Daily Reflections (3 x week), regularly updated new content, a library of archived guided meditations and previous audio and video talks, and a 10% discount on most live programs and on-demand classes.

Śakti Transmission
These ongoing open-eye transmission classes, coupled with daily closed-eye meditation, are central to Kuṇḍalinī Sādhana. When, through grace, kuṇḍalinī begins to awaken in us, receiving transmission allows the teacher to energize and support that unfolding. This helps us tune in to our psychic body, internalize our life force, and maintain that connection as we move through our day. As the awakening of kuṇḍalinī cuts through all limitations within us, our awareness expands, and we experience the source of kuṇḍalinī śakti—which is infinite, divine Consciousness. Read more...
Free classes, offered most Tues/Thurs, 8 pm (Pacific).
Prerequisite: Introductory Video and Double-Breath PDF.
Daily/Weekly Reflections
These reflections will help you focus on your sādhana by offering short, inspirational quotes on a regular basis. They are designed to pinpoint a specific aspect of practice or philosophy that you can keep in mind as you move throughout that day, offering new insight into your spiritual growth in the light of the dynamics of life.
No prerequisite required.
Blog Posts about Sādhana
Swami Khecaranatha’s blog sheds light on various aspects of practice. These blogs are usually based on class discussions and reflect his response to questions students often have about their inner work or about how to integrate that work with daily life. With over fifty years of teaching experience, Swamiji is able to offer valuable insights about the benefits and challenges of living a spiritual life.
New blog on this website about every other week. No prerequisite required.
Teatime with Swamiji
These zoom sessions allow you to “sit down” in dialogue with Swami Khecaranatha in an informal format. He may suggest a topic for discussion, or simply take questions. Feel free to bring up any concerns you have about your practice: how to apply the principals of sādhana to daily life, or some aspect of the philosophy that might need clarification.
Offered monthly, these sessions will be recorded and made available on-demand.
No prerequisites, but participating in the Tu/Th Śakti Transmission classes is strongly recommended.
Guided Meditations
Most students benefit from using guided meditation to help them go deeper inside. Swamiji's words can lead students out of the mind and into the psychic body, thereby penetrating into the Heart of Consciousness within. Meditations range from those most appropriate for anyone new to the practice to more advanced explorations of the the suṣumṇa, the pure channel of light in its innermost core, the internal breath, dvādaśānta, and the complete immersion known as samāveśa.
No prerequisites, but participating in the Tu/Th Śakti Transmission classes is strongly recommended.
Discussions on Sādhana — Audio
Swami Khecaranatha’s has an extensive library of class discussions that are available as audio recordings. You can survey a list of topics and pick one that might shed light on a question you have, or on your current experience with practice. Some of the recordings have been edited, others not—but in either format, these talks are a valuable tool for understanding spiritual growth.
No prerequisites, but participating in the Tu/Th Śakti Transmission classes is strongly recommended.
Discussions on Sādhana — Video
Many of Swami Khecaranatha’s prior classes are available as video recordings. The Śakti Transmission part of the session has been edited out so that you can just watch the talks, which you can use to review topics that might shed light on a question you have, or on your current experience with the practice. There are a wide range of discussions that can be valuable as you grow spiritually.
No prerequisites, but participating in the Tu/Th Śakti Transmission classes is strongly recommended.
