👁 “Awaken the Inner Fire: A Journey Through Shiva and His Third Eye”
A Few Words from Jade
There is a part of us that sees beyond appearances.Beyond the rush, the reaction, the noise.
This is the story of Shiva’s Third Eye—the eye of truth, wisdom, and inner fire. In this workshop, we move through the energies of clarity, transformation, and insight—learning when to act, when to pause, and how to burn away illusion.
Let this be a space to reconnect with your own inner knowing—the eye that sees through the fog and opens into truth.
Workshop Intro
In the myth, Shiva’s third eye is not simply a symbol of power—it is a spiritual tool, only activated when the ego has grown too loud or illusion too thick.
The story begins with Shiva deep in meditation, detached and still, until he is provoked by Kama, the god of desire. Distracted, angered, and awakened, Shiva opens his third eye—and burns Kama to ash.
But this fire is not just destruction. It’s the flame of transformation—clearing the path for higher wisdom, devotion, and self-realisation.
Workshop Themes:
👁 Awareness & Perception – seeing beyond the surface
🔥 Inner Fire – using discomfort as transformation
🌀 Stillness & Action – knowing when to observe, when to move
