Heart Essence of Dakinis Fire Rite

Heart Essence of Dakinis Fire Rite

A dakini is the divine feminine wisdom in form. The heart essence of the dakinis is the purity, joy, openness, ferocity, warriorship, love that fiercely transforms and eliminates obstacles to/for wealth, health, relationships, work, home, family, friends, community, the planet, as well as other beings who are not on the earthly plane. 

Please join us as a distance-participant in our upcoming dakini fire rite. If there are any wishes and intentions you have for your life, loved ones, communities, and other beings, we can include them in this powerful ritual that brings transformation, healing, protection, purification and ultimately the unadorned mind of freedom and liberation. You can learn more about fire rites here on our fire rites page!

If you would like to be included in the rite, please send an email with your wishes and intentions to Karla at gaiabuddhism@gmail.com. They will be held in sacred confidence and offered into the fire during a special section in the rite that is dedicated to sponsors & participants. We will also make a special torma offering for you.  *Please note, this is not an in person event*

Preparatory Journal Prompts to deepen your experience
