When The Body Is Allowed To Rest In Vastness with Ankita Sharma
REGISTER HERE

Ankita Sharma came to Sri Aurobindo after receiving a sudden and spontaneous inner command to surrender and move to Auroville. Subsequent concrete experiences with Him and the Mother transformed her life, giving it a truer purpose. Through her writings and experiential workshops, she shares her ongoing inner discoveries along with Sadhana methods received from the Masters. She facilitates psycho-spiritual healing and an Integral Approach to Asanas and Movement. She is building  Aagami, which aims to demystify higher experiences and research the current revolution in consciousness. Previously, she had a dynamic career spanning political journalism, documentary production & research at ISB, and content & comms for tech startups.

When The Body Is Allowed To Rest In Vastness

Hidden deep under the surface currents of life, we find both the Supreme Rest and Supreme Force pulsating.

 

Mind's rigidity and energetic entanglements don’t easily allow the body to  dip into these Vast inner fields. So, Surrender remains incomplete. Distortion of Truth persists. Relative Truth is confused with Absolute. Density strengthens. Doing more becomes another obsession. The body unconsciously assumes contraction as its destiny even as spiritual practices continue. 

 

But the body's freedom lies in restful expansion. First, senses and thoughts require purification. Then, the body is gently nudged to open up to embrace the Divine Presence, and slowly the knots begin to  melt away. Spaciousness increases. As the weight of concepts and past ideas is lifted from the body, it starts to draw nourishment exclusively from the Source. As trust strengthens, it recognises its own subtler and richer depths. It comfortably rests there. Stillness settles. Separation begins to dissolve. 

 

This is the palace where resistance collapses. 

 

Mind drops stories and identities - even the Spiritual ones. 

 

The energetic system doesn't prepare for defence and safety. 

 

Senses recognise a new, deeper field to perceive. 

 

Here in the inner wholeness, the body rests not for the sake of it but for the glory of the Spirit to express through a non-resisting instrument. This is not inertia. This is an invitation for Truth to manifest. We fully arrive here only when fear and doubts are vanquished. From here, the Spirit's unending deepenings and constant unfoldings can unravel. 

 

This experiential workshop aims to create a gentle space for the body to soften and recognise its hidden Divinity. We will engage in some practices, but also learn to go beyond practices. Perhaps, it was never about "doing" more but trusting more, allowing more.  Savitri and  Mother's Agenda will guide us in this beautiful journey.
