Shiva's Trident: The Consciousness of Freedom and the Means to Liberation
With a mastery etched from over four decades of disciplined inner practice and selfless service, Swami Khecaranatha is an authentic adept and recognized carrier of Tantric Shaivism in the Shaktipat Lineage of Bhagavan Nityananda and Swami Rudrananda. In 2002 he took vows of sannyas, formally committing his life to teaching and serving unconditionally. Khecaranatha’s ability to transmit a living spiritual force and to elucidate ancient Eastern teachings offers practitioners the extraordinary possibility of making contact with the highest consciousness. Reflecting a profound depth of insight into spiritual freedom, Khecaranatha is a living embodiment of the Tantric understanding that all of life is one vibrant expression and celebration of Divine Consciousness. He is the author of several books on Kundalini Meditation and Tantric Shaivism, including Depth Over Time, Merging With the Divine: One Day at a Time, and The Heart of Recognition. Swami Khecaranatha currently resides in Berkeley, California, where he serves as the spiritual leader of TrikaShala, his Kundalini meditation center. pRASAD pRESS “Khecaranatha’s teachings coincide with the Trika school of Shaivism. He has attained a deep understanding of the teachings of Anuttara Trika through the transmission of his teachers, a lifetime of practice, profound personal experience, and selfless service.” — Mark Dyczkowski, one of the world’s foremost authorities on Kashmiri Shaivism
