March 23, Online Women’s Satsang: The Divine Feminine and Sita’s Gems with Nina Rao, Vrinda Sheth, and Acharya Shunya:
We are deeply honored to invite you to a transformative gathering with Nina Rao, Vrinda Sheth, and Acharya Shunya where we will dive into the sacred wisdom of Sita’s Gems—an exploration of the radiant embodiment of the Divine Feminine within each of us.
​
Sita’s story is not merely the tale of a mythic heroine, but a profound reflection of the sacred feminine energies that reside in all of us. Through the lens of the Ramayana, we will journey into Sita’s path—her strength, her grace, her unwavering devotion, and her ability to rise above adversity. Nina will guide us through the essence of Sita’s divine nature, revealing how her Shakti, resilience, and compassion can anchor and empower us on our own journeys.
​
This gathering is an invitation to honor the feminine spirit, to deepen our connection to the eternal power of the Divine Mother, and to recognize Sita’s story as a mirror for our own transformation. Together, we will walk a path of inner discovery, unlocking the sacred wisdom of Sita to inspire and heal our hearts in the face of life’s challenges.
