Amoda Maa and Kavi

Amoda Maa is a contemporary spiritual teacher, author, and speaker. After years of spiritual seeking, meditation, and immersion in psychospiritual practices, an experience of the dark night of the soul led her to a profound inner awakening. Then, after a long period of integration, she began speaking from silence in small gatherings. Today she offers meetings and retreats, and is a frequent speaker at conferences and events, attracting spiritual seekers and people looking for peace and fulfillment in an increasingly chaotic world. Her teachings are free of religion and tradition, and she brings to them a deep understanding of the human journey, born out of her own experience.
She is the author of Radical Awakening and Change Your Life, Change Your World. Both books were written shortly after her awakening and before she began to speak in public.

Her new book Embodied Enlightenment — written 15 years after her awakening — is based on the many conversations at the cutting edge of spiritual inquiry in her meetings with people from all around the world, addressing many of the questions relevant to today’s seeker. It has been acclaimed as “a beautiful and precious gift to an emerging new humanity.” This book is recommended reading if you will be attending Amoda’s workshops. Copies will be available at the festival, if you don’t already have one.
Amoda lives with her husband and beloved, Kavi, in California.

“My invitation is into a conversation that is fresh, intimate and authentic. We meet in that tender place of naked presence to investigate what is truly here beneath and beyond all stories. I invite you to meet yourself in unwavering acceptance and for love to meet itself in awakened awareness. I offer a pointer back home to where love truly is. If you are willing to give yourself to this love unconditionally, you will find that which is truly alive and free.”
