Monday, November 16 7:00 - 10:00pm ![]() |
Tantric / Yantra Art Class Learn from the Master Pieter Weltevrede how to draw The Famous Ganesh Yantra. Learning how to paint yantras is a tantric skill. Pieter comes from a linage that teaches this tantric art. Yantra is perhaps the strongest spiritual tool of sacred painting and is relatively easy to make. Benefits are: to calm and focus your mind, to balance the right and left hemispheres of your brain, to cultivate a personal meditation practice. These practices cultivate harmony within the mind, which in turn helps build harmony within the home. All levels of experience welcome. We will have something for everyone to learn. One does not need to be a painter, only a spiritual practitioner seeking the Divine. LEARN MORE ABOUT PIETER on the FLYER HERE Register for the class by Thurs. Nov.12 Space is very limited and we will need to have enough supplies ahead of time for each person. You will need to bring some of your own art supplies. This is a VERY exciting opportunity to share “tips” from a Master artist. The class begins after the reception. Cost $59 per person - Pre-registration is required. Call 604-275-6567 to register, or by email: vasa108@telus.net |
