Our first Vistara Circle gathering was on the full moon of May in 2017. This was an auspicious occasion, because not only was it our inaugural event, it was also the birthday of Lord Buddha and other yogi icons. Since then, our meetings have been truly special and all because people like you took the time to join us.
Three years ago, Vistara Circle started as a small collective meditation gathering in Alexandria, VA designed to bring people together for meditation and community! Just this year it expanded to having a chapter in Oakland, C.A. and Long Island, N.Y. It also has 4 online gatherings happening throughout the week!
Our four online gatherings feature meditation and discussions on personal development. They are taught by different teachers. Click here for the schedule. The style of meditation and yoga that we practice is called Tantra. Tantra is a spiritual tradition which originated in India 7000 years ago and was first systematized by the ancient guru, Shiva. It emphasizes the development of human vigor, both through meditation and through confrontation of difficult external situations, by overcoming all fears and weaknesses. Our community follows the ethical principles of Yama and Niyama in order to create a safe and conscientious space for everyone. We look forward to meeting you and having you be a part of our circle.
