Turiyatita Ma
Shaktipat Acharya
United States
Turiyatita Ma’s awakening began at the age of seven, opening through visions, out-of-body experiences, and an early intimacy with death. Beneath it all, a quiet knowing of Divine orchestration was always present, even as karmic patterns and early trauma moved through her path.
Drawn by devotion and truth, her journey unfolded through both Kabbalistic study, non dual scripture and the path of Bhakti. A profound Kundalini activation in 2006 ignited a deeper remembrance, eventually guiding her to the Sangha, where recognition, guidance, and true spiritual community were found.
Through years of Shaktipat and direct transmission, the heart opened into deeper and higher states of Samadhi, allowing for the unwinding of karmic residue and the integration of what had long been held.
Initiated as a Siddha Yogini, her path ripened into embodied wholeness—grounded, clear, and deeply integrated.
Now serving as a Siddha Guru, Turiyatita Ma holds a steady and attuned field for awakening. She offers Shaktipat and supports healing sessions through trauma and addiction work, womb healing, and energetic activation, often deepening into ongoing mentorship.
A devoted member of the Sangha since 2018, she has offered over 50 in-person Shaktipats and has given Shaktipat in retreats with Rohanji in Austria, Greece, and India over the past three years.
Luzie Stitz
Shaktipat Initiator, Trauma-informed
Germany
Since childhood, her Kundalini energy has been active, driving a lifelong quest for a deeper understanding of life and the world we experience. Always curious and seeking answers, she encountered a profound and life-changing Kundalini event in 2018, which led her to Advaitashram. There, she found the long-awaited answers, allowing for a deeper comprehension of life itself and her experiences.
Under the guidance and support of Advait Ashram, she underwent an intensive purification of body and mind. This transformative process has led to a state of joy and freedom, enabling her to help others with love and compassion on their own paths. By examining the structures of the body-mind from a holistic perspective, she assists others in revealing what lies beneath these layers.
Akiko Moriguchi
Shaktipat Initiator
Japan
Akiko’s Kundalini process was initiated by traumatic childhood experiences, accompanied by high fever and visions,
The conscious transformation began in adulthood when she experienced complete union with the universe through Peruvian shamanism. This profound emotional release began to dissolve her traumas, and although she gradually started to feel out of sync with the material world, she continued to function within society, striving to bridge the gap between the seen and unseen realms.
However, after a series of life-shattering events, everything collapsed at once. She reset her life completely to zero. It was during this time of surrender that she received Diksha from Rohan, leading to a full awakened state.
This encounter with the revolutionary method of Shaktipat— one that requires nothing external and activates the latent power within — marked a turning point.
Inspired to help Japan reconnect with its essence that it had forgotten, she now leads retreats with and meditation gatherings.
Jagadānanda
Shaktipat Initiator, Ayurvedic Practitioner
France & New Zealand
The many spiritual occurrences during Jack’s early childhood provided a crash course in energy and the formless world. Sensing energies, seeing aura colours, and visits from spirits of different sorts were regular occurrences, and explained to him by his mother and grandfather, who are spiritual mediums. Meditation began around age 8.
In an attempt to stop the flow as the rational brain developed, he unwittingly tried to ignore the process. However, through various life events, his kundalini continued upwards, this time in an explosive way, bringing with it fears, traumas and disease to be cleared.
With no clear idea of a kundalini process at that time, he went through this period of deep purging guided only by the inner intuitions of divine wisdom (shakti herself). Slowly, experiences of deeper divine love, connection, and unity became part of his everyday experiences. Transcending his spiritual upbringing and seeking deeper truth in nonduality became very important.
Through dance, permaculture, meditation, and the yogic path in general, the divine works through him to share his gifts of wisdom, observation, and deep authentic relations to guide others to self realisation in the divine.
Katie Derrett
Shaktipat Initiator
Australia
As a child, Katie experienced the early stirrings of Kundalini. Without a supportive structure in place, she was unable to fully embrace it and instead turned outward, immersing herself in travel and adventure- until the path called her back inward to face the pain of a profound loss. That loss led her to embrace an authentic yoga path. She travelled to India to deepen her understanding of the teachings under the guidance of Sivananda lineage and spent time living within the ashram environment. A few years later, soon after moving to Australia, she experienced shaktipat through meditation, which further expanded consciousness and initiated her into ‘the path of fire’. Guidance was mostly internal until she found support through Rohan and the shaktipat community of Advaitashram team, who have helped integrate the intensity of the path and its outcomes. Katie is now open to supporting others as they navigate their own journeys, and to share the important teachings of the ashram.

Shaktipat Initiator
United States
Lyra is a catalyst for the spiritual transformation of the world. She gives us strength and purpose, noticing through her eyes that which you’re destined to see. She is not a guru, teacher, or coach in the traditional sense. Lyra embodies the living light of Divine Mother, and through her presence and voice helps awaken us to our own divine nature. Her love and compassion transcend conscious awareness, piercing through to our hearts in ways we may never fully understand so we can let go of challenging experiences and have the courage to love fiercely and without compromise. She is an ally to liberate our souls and restore freedom, enabling us to let go of distractions from habitual desires and instead tap into our true passion.

Teachers who understand the kundalini process
Qusai Kathawala
Somatic Movement Expert, Cranio Sacral Therapist
Goa, India
Qusai is a sufi mystic who utilizes posture and movement to enhance awareness and circulate energy, drawing from 20+ years of studying yoga, qigong, feldenkrais, meditation, and somatic practices. His teaching style, informed by this synthesis, is flexible, playful, and deeply nourishing.
During sessions, Qusai guides participants to quiet the mind, enhance proprioception (the body’s awareness of its position), and sharpen interoception (awareness of the internal body state). The goal is to tap into primal intelligence, deepen presence, and embody daoist qualities like Ziran (spontaneity) and Wei wu wei (doing not-doing).
Matilda Hedenlo
Astrology, Human Design & Gene Keys
Stockholm, Sweden
She was raised in an environment with astrology and was introduced early to the world of archetypes.
Western Astrology became her first mirror, later enriched by the depth of Vedic Astrology. The arrival of Human Design and the Gene Keys marked the beginning of yet another transformative inner journey – one that wove together energy mechanics, consciousness, and shadow integration into a holistic path of healing and self-realization.
Her offering here is a unique synthesis of Human Design, the Gene Keys, and Astrology – as she reads your design she directly engages with the shadow patterns, awakening gifts, and activating the higher potentials encoded within each individual. Her greatest joy lies in guiding others back to their original essence, one of innocence and love.

Kundalini Guidance & Shaktipat
Kundalini Activation
Shaktipat transmission ignites Kundalini activity and supports the opening of the appropriate channels. Through Shaktipat, Kundalini rising happens with laser-like precision and the energies of the initiate are consolidated to awaken consciousness to its original state of freedom. Shaktipat awakens the innate wisdom of Kundalini directly.
Kundalini Grounding & Support
The higher a tree’s crown grows, the deeper its roots have to be. To balance Kundalini’s liberating intensity, grounding and alignment are very supportive. In these sessions, Shaktipat is directed more to the downward flow of prana and to the balancing of the subtle energy channels. Spontaneous Shivapat may occur, a flow of Divine Grace.
Trauma clearing and release
Trauma is the memory of experiences that overwhelmed one’s capacity to be present. Shaktipat directed specifically to clear trauma enhances the capacity to be present and the direct transformative fire of shakti further supports the release of old memories.
