In this two-part immersion you will practice with the Ten Great Wisdom Goddesses, the group of Godesses from India called the Dasha MahaVidyas.
Each in their unique way, these powerful tantric Goddesses will awaken within you the multidimensional nature of Divine Feminine Wisdom. Although lavishly diverse in appearance and transmission, they are ultimately all different aspects of One energy.
When practicing with them as a group you learn to recognize in a profound way the multifaceted ways Goddess shows up, as your life.

As you stumble and get entangled, as you rise and as you blossom, you begin to realize that each flavor of the Goddess—both the sticky foggy realms as well as Her luminosity—carry wisdom codes that open doors into a greater intimacy with this devastating, splendorous weaving that is our world.
Once you see through the many disguises and forms of Goddess and realize Her true nature as One—that the habitual patterns that bind you are made of the same fabric as that which liberates—you unlock a force of awakening within you that disentangles you from the draining drama of division, and realigns you with the union that pulsates at the root of your Being.

The doors to the world of the wild Self
are few but precious.
If you have a deep scar, that is a door,
if you have an old, old story, that is a door.
If you love the sky and the water so much
you almost cannot bear it, that is a door.
If you yearn for a deeper life,
a full life, a sane life, that is a door.

:: You may choose to do only one of the courses, or both, it’s up to you.

Part 1
Kali ~ She is the raw, devastating beauty of the life-death cycle. She is time itself. She is Dark Mother dancing fiercely in the ashes of our ignorance, devouring all that is no longer serving us.
Tara ~ The holy Shapeshifter, the Savior, Goddess of transformation. Queen of Shakti alchemy, She shows us that everything is energy. She is also the power of the word and sound and is also called Blue Saraswati.
Shodashi (Sundari, Lalita Devi) ~ She is the erotic attraction at the heart of life itself, she is the Shakti of magnetism alluring us onto the spiritual path. Her Soma drips from our crown, permeating our being as self arising wisdom.
Bhairavi ~ She is spiritual heat, tapas, the primal voice of truth vibrating in the deep dark roots of our Being. Her fire melts frozen behavioral patterns, liberating our life force energy and joy.
Bhuvaneshwari ~ Unfathomably expansive, She is the eagle eye perspective. She is infinite space throbbing with creative potential, the cosmic womb, birthing the world. She is PachaMama, heaven and earth, Shiva and Shakti, united.
Part 2
Dhumavati ~ The Goddess of regrets, bitterness, loss, aging, loneliness. She is all that we push away and look upon as mistakes. She is fog, smoke; the one who hides some things so others can be illuminated.
Bagalamukhi ~ The great paralyzer: she paralyzes the demon’s tongue with her club and with sound. She catapults us out of never-ending thought loops and brings us into the luminous wisdom of our presence.
Matangi ~ She is an earthy sister of Saraswati: Goddess of song, music, words, poetry, art. A dark green Goddess, She lives in the forest on the edge of society, beautiful, free and wild.
Chinnamasta ~ She teaches us to draw spiritual nourishment from within ourselves, and how to find the balance of giving and receiving. She is pictured holding her chopped off head, whose blood stream feeds herself and her two Yogini sisters.
Kamala ~ The lotus Goddess is an aspect of Lakshmi, Goddess of abundance. Voluptuous and beautiful she embodies material beauty permeated with Shree. She is sensuality, pleasure, relationship, money, home and liberation. She shows us that we need our roots in order to fully blossom spiritually.
“This has been such a blissful and deep process, looking at different aspects and (denied, closed off) parts of me through the Goddess journeys. Jai jai jai jai Ma!!! This isn’t a one and done thing….thank you for holding the space and the container so impeccably as always. The more this feeling of trust and safety builds, the more I melt into it, the more those hardened parts of me soften. So intimate, so graceful. Always feels like a new beginning, even though it is a continuous flow.”
“This Immersion had a deep transformational effect on me. It was like an activation of memories that were stored deep in my cells. I have no words to describe how I feel more connected and interwoven by the Goddess. “Take me. I am yours to love, to speak, to teach, to support, to hold space for healing” is my daily prayer. I bow.

Chameli Gad
Founder, Awakening Women
Chameli (pronounced sha-meh-lee) is the founder of Awakening Women, a mystic and Goddess Wisdom Keeper. Through her love of ancient wisdom teachings, and her own practice in Goddess circles all over the world, she has crystallized maps of spiritual awakening and leadership that are accessible, practical and honoring of women today. Rooted in earth honoring, devotional women’s spirituality and goddess-centered tantric yoga, she is especially appreciated for her love of mythology and storytelling as a key to spiritual awakening and embodiment.
“The Goddess Immersions that Chameli offers are heartfelt, luminous, real, instinctively insightful, hard won and full of heart. Her teaching has the quality of a precious living transmission from the heart of one who is clearly walking her talk. Her life’s work in bringing the real, messy, visceral struggle and beauty of being a human being into relationship and ultimately - integration with - the divinity and sacredness of our Goddess lineage is sacred medicine that I feel is sorely needed in the times we are living through. I trust Chameli’s integrity of heart with my whole heart. “
