Online: The Kalachakra Tantra and Shambhala with Niraj Kumar

Join us as we sit down with Niraj Kumar, author of The Kalacakra Tantra – Translation, Annotation and Commentary – Volume 1. Niraj will discuss some of the insights of the Kalachakra tantra, specifically how the tantra is formulated in a way to comprehend the whole existence within the human body which works like a machine, and the correlations between the external universe, time and the internal body.

He will also give an overview of Shambhala – a place of material abundance, universal peace and happiness and discuss its concept, origin, history, who taught it and the reign of the Kalki Kings.
