Krishna’s Last Teachings
         - Mantras & Practical Insights     

workshop content & description as authored
by Bill Francis Barry in 2014

Krishna’s last teachings include instructions on small adjustments we can make in our lives to produce practical & profound benefits.  The Uddhava Gita, also called the ‘Last Teachings of Krishna’, contains a wealth of guidance to help all aspects of our lives.  Inspired by these teachings, this mantra & knowledge immersion workshop offers instruction in Sanskrit mantras and other techniques based upon the experiences of advanced yogis & mystics and the presenter's decades of personal yoga practices.  The Uddhava Gita is found in part of the esteemed Shrimad-Bhagvatam scripture.   

WHAT ARE THE PRACTICAL TEACHINGS in this workshop?:  

* We’ll learn that Sri Krishna’s weapons are not physical weapons, but specific manifestations of focused & empowered consciousness. Plus mantras which can manifest these ‘weapons’ in our spiritual growth.

* Krishna teaches many simple methods to accelerate the inflow of sattvic energies of purification, peace & Shakti into our lives (off the yoga-mat, outside of meditation time methods!).

* Krishna’s instructions to Uddhava, about the location of the Deity within us, in the hidden 8 petal chakra – the ‘cave within the heart’ – and several mantras which can empower our getting there.

* Krishna’s solution to his statement that we don’t know who we are! And some mantras that are inspired by this. Which can lead us, eventually, to a direct knowing of who Sri Krishna is!

* Krishna’s teaching that the highest form of Vedic ceremony does not involve physical materials, instruments or external procedural steps!

* And of course, the many inspired Krishna mantras to help us with personal issues, with purification, with attaining inner peace, with attuning to the Paramatman (called by many names: Source, The Oversoul, Brahman, etc.)

*  We’ll even learn why Krishna appeared to the Sages as a swan!

* And by Divine Grace, we’ll have fun sharing these sacred, potent & profoundly practical teachings.

Attendees will receive detailed handouts plus a recording of all workshop mantras. 

"He who but tastes with genuine faith of this nectar of knowledge that was imparted to the devoted Uddhava by Sri Krishna - whose feet the Masters of Yoga worship, and that is stored in the path of devotion, which is an ocean of bliss - frees himself, and the world with him".   from the Uddhava Gita (24:48)
