What Men Are Saying About Serving The Goddess

“I enjoyed the class very much… I think your closing session was so powerful. Probably more so for me because I’m not in a relationship at the moment and really felt healed by the extended breathing session and support circle.

And then all of the sudden there was this strange energy in the room and then it’s almost like some sort of cleansing ceremony. That was really cool.

When I left I felt so different. I was looking at women differently. It was so amazing.” ~ single, age 27

“I spent most of this morning processing what I have learned from my three evenings with you and at one point I cried.
I feel a fresh sense of possibility and opportunity in my approach to love and living.

My heart is overflowing with love and gratitude to you for the wisdom that you have made available to me and setting you engendered for me to experience the humanity of other men in both their confusion and confidence.

… I am led to believe that to mature into better man is the path to become a better human being. Namaste has taken new meaning to me.” ~ single & dating, age 52

“Teeni, thank you for all of what you taught us at the men’s class recently. The exercises in breath work and all the knowledge you gave to us was most helpful. Consciously serving the Goddess by connecting through the heart, and holding space without an agenda were just a few of the great ideas you gave to us so that in return we may use this knowledge to better serve all the women we encounter in the future.” ~ married, age 40

“I really enjoyed last night’s class; thanks for the white tantra exercises and all the ideas and techniques for the ritual.  And I am really grateful for your personal stories which really help cement all the ideas in reality.  I’m very impressed by your honesty and openness!

The opportunity for the giver to give without thought of return is a tremendous gift from the giver to his/her-self!  When we give with the idea of getting something in return, we are projecting ourselves into the future (which doesn’t really exist) and are, therefore, absent from the Now in which we live.  This locks us into a cycle of grasping at things that we never really get to appreciate because by the time we get them, we are already grasping at something else.  When, in this ritual, we give without thought of future fruition, we are then finally free to be wholly present in the present (as long as we don’t grasp at that freedom itself!).  Of course, that presence allows to give even more to the Goddess of the ritual, especially if we gift that new-found freedom to her as well.  There’s an interesting balance here between the giver loosening the bonds of attachment to the future and the healing of emotional issues from the past in the receiver.

Also, the whole ritual seems to me to be a great opportunity to open a direct channel between our limited, egoic self and the universal Shiva-Shakti.  When Shakti and Shiva spontaneously unfurl from their essential unity, they dance, they play, they make love.  We, everything that is experienced or imagined is that dance and play and love.  When we suffer, it is because we have forgotten that.  But, in this ritual, when we give ourselves over to pure Bliss we can reclaim our true nature in divinity.  We are Shakti and Shiva at play, and as that Truth infuses our lives, we can’t but spread that Beauty to the world around us–This in addition the wonderful healing and transformative benefits you have taught us.” – young at heart
