Maha Shivaratri is the great dark night of Lord Shiva. It represents the possibility that we can meet Lord Shiva, our own enlightened essence nature, in the midst of our ordinary lives. It is the night when we worship the Supreme Reality and sing the names of God understanding that God is always appearing right here, even in darkness.

About the teacher

She is also known for making complex teachings about the nature of the self and reality understandable, practical, and always relatable to everyday experience. Her teachings are grounded in her more than thirty-five years of daily personal practice and personal retreats.
“Generosity is a fountain of living light at the heart of creation. Having opened your heart and recognized its identity with the heart of the divine, you want to be here giving and giving throughout your natural lifetime. This is the essence of realization.” ~Shambhavi
