YOGA-NIDRA – Ascent into the Subconscious
A comprehensive guide to the method developed by Svāmī Satyānanda Sarasvatī
by Nadeshda Stuerzebecher (Antarshuddhi)
After five years of intensive research, I am delighted to present the results in book form. Based on classical sources of Indian philosophy (Vedanta, Samkhya, Tantra) and embedded in the integral yoga system of Bihar Yoga, this book combines theory, practice and historical classification.
For all those who want to understand and apply Yoga Nidra not only as a relaxation technique, but also as a method for expanding consciousness.
Gayatri Yantra and Mantra online session, 25th June 2026
Join us for a special online session dedicated to the powerful Gayatri mantra and yantra. Gayatri is traditionally associated with the Sun – our source of life, energy, and light, and the central force of our solar system. The year 2026 is a number-one year (2+0+2+6), which in Vedic numerology and astrology (Jyotiṣa) corresponds to the solar principle. In this three-hour online sadhana, we will explore the Gayatri yantra and engage with the mantra’s vibration, tuning into the Sun’s radiance and the illuminating power of Gayatri.
Gayatri – Mantra & Yantra Retreat, 23rd–29th August 2026
Join us for a 6-day-long immersive retreat dedicated to Gayatri – an invocation of solar wisdom, clarity, and inner illumination. We will awaken together a new cycle of clarity and purpose in the warm light of late-summer Tuscany. Our journey will culminate on Gayatri Jayanti (28 August), the annual sacred day honouring the mantra itself, creating a natural peak of intention, renewal and celebration.
Our Aim
Our aim is to offer the opportunity to explore the practice of mantra and yantra in an accessible, systematic and meaningful way. Through day, weekend and longer retreat courses we wish to create an environment where these ancient and powerful tools of transformation can be explored and experienced as part of one’s spiritual practice and personal development.
Mantra and Yantra are tools of Tantra. Tantra is the root of yoga, through their practice one can
heal and harmonise, integrating head, heart and hands; thought, feeling and expression.
The whole process of creating the yantra goes beyond one of simply drawing and painting a beautiful image, it is a process of worship. An open attitude is more important than ability and we have experienced on many occasions participants amazing themselves with what they are able to create, express and discover.
Fine Art Prints
The Yantras and Mandalas are not only beautiful images or patterns, but they are also meditation objects and powerful tools of self-enquiry and transformation. They appear as maps of consciousness – helping us to focus, expand our consciousness and activate our creative potential.
The pictures presented here have been painted in a gouache and watercolour technique, which requires a lengthy working process in which the paint is applied layer by layer to create the depth and the smoothness of the nuances and gradients. They are available as high quality art prints.
