Kashmiri Shaivism is a pure, idealistic philosophical system of knowledge, that might be considered from this stand point closest to the German idealistic philosophy of Kant, Husserl and Heidegger than to classical yoga. Nevertheless, there are a few texts which were designed by Abhinavagupta in order to offer in the same time a clear spiritual vision upon the manifestation and the possibility of a practical, efficient approach in order to easily attain enlightenment and liberation even for those not versed in the hardcore tradition of Shaivism. Paramarthasara is one of those texts. It offers at the same time a clear description of the process of manifestation , starting with the gradual limitation of the eternal being, continuing with the description of the condition of the soul, his limitations and karmic conditionings, and a clear path, based upon the action of the spiritual practice and the Divine Grace, towards the supreme stage of regaining the autonomy and freedom of the Shiva consciousness.
By participating in this workshop you will be in the same time introduced in the high level Kashmiri Shaiva teachings and also you will be guided, based upon those teachings, in order to experience yourself the ultimate consciousness.
