Niguma Yoga
Rooted in mystery and preserved through an unbroken lineage, Niguma Yoga offers a portal into the subtle body, dream realms, and the radiant nature of mind.
The yoga of Niguma comes to us from an unbroken lineage preserved over hundreds of years by Buddhist yogis in Tibet.
The practice originated with the 10th century revered Indian female yogini Niguma, an enlightened master who transmitted a tradition of remarkable practices that bring us physical, spiritual, and emotional wellness and can culminate in timeless enlightened awareness of reality as bliss.
Niguma’s teachings were transmitted from India to Tibet and became the foundation for the Shangpa Kagyu lineage that H.E. Kalu Rinpoche is the head of. The lineage kept her teachings secret under her instructions for 7 generations, but now we have this precious opportunity to practice Niguma’s yoga.
Deepen your connection to Niguma’s teachings with our upcoming book and retreat in Italy.
