Living Awake Program

with Satya Katiza & Kevin Sahaj

Delight Yoga is delighted to continue offering the Living Awake Program & Gatherings developed and guided by our senior teachers Satya & Sahaj. The Living Awake Program is an online & live community-building ground. It consists of regular Satsang with Satya (1,5 hour special classes) and monthly Darshan with Sahaj (2-hour workshops) that are a container of support for each other, a thread of Love to lightly hold onto. The program and gatherings will give us the support and ease in ourselves that we so much need to have, to find the courage to live our real potential as awakened human beings in the midst of everyday life.

In 2023, Satya & Sahaj will dedicate their Living Awake program and gatherings to merging the living wisdom and sadhanas (spiritual practices) of Yoga & Tantra. These two wisdom rivers have only one goal: to bring us to the ocean of self-liberation. In their long years of guiding people, Satya & Sahaj have received many inquiries to help to clarify these streams where there is so much confusion and misunderstanding.

These ancient paths of Yoga & Tantra, which are sister traditions, are the most remarkable accomplishments of human genius and surely two of the most fascinating creations of spiritual aspiration. They are India’s mature answer to the universal question “Who am I?”—a question that, sooner or later, will dawn on any person looking into the mystery of life.

Once a month, the Living Awake program will be merged with the Monthly Satsang which will be dedicated to our Theme of the Month.

Format of the program:

We gather to create a year of transformation at Home. Our homes are the center of where we live our lives, where we would like to be at ease, natural, and free. Our bodies are our direct home, and our home is a reflection of our mind. All of our reality is a reflection of this intimate indivisible connection, a connection to everything that exists.

The only way to find peace and harmony is in the here and now, right where we are. So let's start right here where we are and make this real!

The Living Awake Program consists of:

  • regular weekly sessions of 1.5 hours: Living Awake Satsang with Satya (Special classes bookable through our regular schedule two weeks in advance. The word Satsang means “a gathering of people interested in truth”. Satsang is an invitation to simply being in the presence of who you really are, pure Being-ness.
  • monthly workshops of 2 hours: "Darshan" on Shiva Moon with Sahaj (workshops bookable through our workshop page. Darshana is a Sanskrit word meaning “to see”, not only with the eyes but with ones whole being. Darshana also refers to the different ways of seeing the truth through different spiritual paths.

It is possible to join individual gatherings, but for regular support and community throughout the whole year, it is advised to join both the Satsangs as well as the Darshan workshops as regularly as possible.

The online format gives us direct and easy ways to Be without having to move away from our realities or make great efforts to go somewhere. We allow this transformation to take place at Home. From our homes, the awakened life can spread to our direct relations, to our communities and into the world.

What is Darshana?

Darshana is a Sanskrit word meaning “to see”, not only with the eyes but with ones whole being. Darshana also refers to the different ways of seeing the truth through different spiritual paths. The word “Darshan” is a Hindi word that is used in reference to a direct transfer of the blessing of the Deity or an awakened person to the seeker. But is essentially the same meaning as the Sanskrit “Darshana” although in a popular modern Hindu usage, Darshan refers to physically seeing the deity in the temple, or an awakened person. We are using the term Darshana/Darshan in this way: Seeing clearly without the filter of the mind colouring reality with its judgments, ideas, likes and dislikes. This pure seeing consciousness, ever-present, is what is meant by Shiva, our personal vision of seeing clearly without the minds veil, is the Darshana. In these workshops we will reveal through tantric practices, a direct “seeing”, (Darshana) of Shiva (our divine consciousness).

Living Awake Satsang with Satya - Special classes

You can book your class 2 weeks in advance

During the Living Awake Satsangs with Satya (special classes on Zoom), we will offer a daily sadhana including movement and sitting meditation, something simple and profound that anybody can do. This will help us to connect to our own bodies with the laws of nature and the universe.

We will also invite you to keep a daily journal so you can allow yourself to play and be an artist again. Creativity is part of being alive.

Once a month, the Living Awake program will be merged with the Monthly Satsang which will be dedicated to our Theme of the Month {link to blog}.

How to access Zoom events:

For online events via zoom, the zoom link automatically gets sent to your email address 15 minutes before the session starts. Good to know, you can always access booked zoom sessions through your Delight account under your Booked classes. The livestream access button becomes unavailable as soon as the session starts, so make sure to start the livestream 10-15 before the session starts and allow yourself to settle down. In case you are a little later you can still use the zoom link in your email to join. If you have registered shortly before the session starts go to your Delight account, select the session under your booked classes and then click the button 'access livestream'. Important: Make sure to open the zoom link BEFORE the session starts, because it is not possible to join anymore once the event has started.
