SUMMONING THE SACRED
Your Path to Enlightenment

Awaken the divine archetype within you

Summoning the Sacred is our most intimate workshop with Deepak Chopra, created exclusively for Seduction of Spirit and/or SynchroDestiny graduates who want to open to new levels of spiritual wisdom.

Summoning the Sacred is a unique experiential workshop limited to a small number of participants so that the experience can be tailored to the group's individual interests and explorations.

We will explore the science of mythology and archetypes – powerful energies that are within us and demonstrated within our cultures. Learn how to activate these archetypal energies to inspire, guide, and transform your life.

Each day you’ll also go deeper into the timeless spiritual philosophy of Vedanta, which is the foundation of many of the Chopra Center’s teachings. The teachings will be made personal through the lecture sessions as well as a combination of experiential activities that include advanced yogic practices and a unique experience of pranayama techniques to expand consciousness and the body's vital energy. Awaken the divine within you through a daily practice of Primordial Sound Meditation, Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga, and sacred silence.
