One thousand years ago in the valley of Kashmir, a great tantrika, Rajanaka Kshemaraja, wrote his masterpiece: the Pratyabhijña-hrdayam; “the essence of the Recognition philosophy” or “the heart of the teachings on Recognition”—recognition, that is, of oneself as an expression of the universal divine Consciousness.

Welcome to The Recognition Sutras, a powerful and revelatory spiritual masterpiece, and one of the primary sources for the study and practice of Tantric Shaivism.

Accurately translated and fully explained here for the first time, this course is breathtaking in its brevity and stunning in its power.

Have you have ever asked yourself these questions?

How may I be free of suffering?
What is the fundamental nature of a human being?
How do we acquire valid insight, undistorted by our past conditioning?
Is consciousness a static witness or a dynamic process?
Does awareness really create reality?

This course is for you if:

You want to immerse yourself in the philosophy of Tantrik Yoga and dive deep into one of its foundational texts
You would like to learn some of the most vital and effective practices ever discovered by the Tantrik tradition (found in Chapter 18 of the text, these have never been translated accurately before). These are the meditations taught in the text itself, and are said by the tradition to be a complete sadhana—that is, all you need to realize your true nature and experience liberation.
You want depth of insight and recognition of your true nature but live a full life and therefore have limited opportunity for study. You desire a focused course that cuts out anything extraneous and goes right to the core of the teachings, without losing any of the meaning.
You want access to the expertise of a professional Sanskrit scholar who is also a long-term practitioner.
