Masculine practice at its finest?

Finding your life’s purpose is an essential part of finding your masculine core and is usually a deeper spiritual longing for men. However, many women also have a strong masculine, spiritual drive and motivation to go deeper into this inquiry.

Level 7 Accessing Subconscious Wisdom retreat is one of the most intensive processes offered by The New Tantra. It’s a cave-meditation retreat where we’ll spend six days in complete darkness. We create an environment with as few distractions as possible – no visual input, complete silence, one meal a day.

You’ll spend all your waking time in silent meditation where you’ll practice to expand your awareness and go deep into subconscious states of empty mind, from where you’ll be able to access deeper sources of creativity and insights.

In the dark, our brain waves slow down from the normal active and alert state (beta waves) to the frequency of Alpha and Theta. These are mental states of deep relaxation and meditation. In these slower brain frequencies, the creative thinking process is activated. The mental state of Theta allows you to act even below the level of the conscious mind.

Level 7: Finding your life’s purpose

“What am I supposed to do with my life?” – This is the question most of us never dare to ask ourselves during our lifetime. It’s rated as the number one thing people have regrets around in their final stage of their life, wishing they’d had the courage to live a life true to themselves, and not a life expected by others. If you don’t find the answer to that question, you’ll die feeling like a failure…

It’s about a deep spiritual longing in the human being to find a meaning in existence. “Why am I here – in this life, in this body, in this situation?” and “What’s my purpose?”

Level 7 is a retreat for becoming in tune with your life’s purpose, your gifts, passion, and how you actually can serve and give something back to the world. What’s your contribution? What am I here for?

The focus will be on:

• getting a clear idea of the next step for you living your potential, your talents and qualities,
• integrating your working life with your spiritual practice,
• learning how to manifest this in the next few years of your lif,
• and how to move towards dying complete, having lived your life’s purpose.

The most important days of your life are when you are born and the day you find out why.
– Mark Twain

The process

Level 7 Accessing Subconscious Wisdom is led by Constantine and Paris from the TNT team. TNT founder Alexa Vartman will join on video call for the preparation and post-darkness sessions.

Day 1, intro: Introduction to the process where you’ll be prepared with theory and methods and a crash summary course on how to meditate and feel the right handside of your spiritual heart (Level 4 practice). We’ll guide you how to differentiate the types of mind, how to let go of the monkey-mind and stay present and open for the intuitive spiritual mind, and how to use the working mind to put the insights into a practical working structure. This will help you to get a clear intention for your process and serve as guidance once you’re down in the dark on your own. The first 24h you’ll sleep most of the time, since we’re usually way more tired from all external input then we’re aware of. But you’ll reach a point when you won’t be tired anymore which usually happens during the second day.

In the bunker, we’ll start with a guided meditation to get you started in a good direction after which we’ll close the lights. The first 15-20 hours in darkness you will probably just sleep as most of us are in a constant state of tiredness, after this you’ll not be able to sleep anymore. Then the mind-fucks starts. The difference is that we will not be able to distract ourselves with our usual distractions, TV, work, internet… even just being able to look at things.

Five Star-quality food is brought to you once a day by someone with night vision goggles, and you’ll eat like a dog out of a bowl with a spoon. Eating in the dark will need some getting used to, but the food will be of exceptional quality to support you in your process.

The location is set up so that strings can lead you to the toilet and back to your mattresses. During the 6 days in the dark you don’t have the possibility to shower but warm wet towels are provided every day to clean your body, although it’s not a big problem since we don’t move much during the week.

Day 2, beginning: The mind then starts to externalize after 2 days, kind of like dreaming with your eyes open. Not being able to control your thoughts, the subconscious starts to empty into your consciousness. You experience all the thoughts that you had suppressed, including a lot of very sexual thoughts for most people. A rather interesting and intense stage where you see deeply into yourself in the dark, you make use of all the tools which we teach people in the other TNT levels. Like practicing to conduct whatever feeling there is in the body and focusing on the right handside of the heart. Every day, the TNT team will pass by shortly, to check how the participants are doing and proceeding.

Day 3 & 4, middle: After about 3-4 days of cleansing, the mind becomes very quiet and you can rest for periods in un-manifested consciousness… a very blissful state focuses very clearly and recalls things like your childhood. The working mind becomes very clear. In the absolute quietness of the mind in combination with prayer there can be a very clear communication between spirit and your conscious mind via your intuition. Most people will get already in this stage clear pictures of what would really make them happy to achieve this lifetime and to be able to die happy and complete, feeling that life has lived fully through them.

Day 5, final: The intuitions and visions are usually very blissful as your consciousness is at this point externalized to the max, and the intuition of how the Divine wants to live through you becomes even clearer. When you’ve reached this state of the process, the TNT team will do individual coaching in the dark with all the participants to check how you’re doing and help fine-tuning your process in the right direction. Now you can start to put the pieces together on what you’ll actually do the next 3-10 years. These days you start to include the working mind to explore, write down, elaborate and concretize your vision as much possible. This will help you seeing the practical steps which are needed to start to manifest your life’s purpose. You’ll get further clarity and a general excitement and fire to live that life.

Day 6, exit and integration: On day 6, you’re slowly led out of the darkness and integrated back into the light. Just looking at ordinary things and nature will usually appear as pure, divine light. You’ll almost feel like you are having sex with consciousness just by looking into another person’s eyes. After landing back in reality, we then gather in a circle where you share your insights on your life purpose with the group. The TNT team with Alexa Vartman on video will be coaching and using the wisdom of the circle to guide you. You’ll also have the opportunity to form accountability groups with the other participants you resonate with, share learnings and support each other in how to put the practical steps together after the retreat.
