“I really appreciate the format of the Find Life Purpose course. It is easy to follow and I feel I can go at my own speed. This makes it possible for me to truly embody the principles I am learning. I have gained deep insight into what I really want and moved away from patterns that don't serve me, I am much more aware of my own genuine truths. I will continue to use this course as a tool in my life. Thank you!”

“Big Shakti’s study programs provide a path to enlightenment and a practical yet highly spiritual means of attaining a more aware state wherever you are in your own development. Both Swami Shankardev and Jayne support your growth and learning in a safe, loving environment where questions are seen as part of the learning. The structure of the theory has given me the basis on which to build. It has helped me to understand so much about my life and the lives of those around me. I feel supported and held.”

“Big Shakti's online courses are exceptional because of the wisdom they share, the teachers who teach it and the way the courses are presented. The credible Eastern and Western perspectives allow the topic to be understood more easily. The valuable homework reflections, teamed with thorough Q&A opportunities as well as specific breath work and meditation practices bring the knowledge into daily life. Access to technical and personal support throughout the study is priceless. All facets of the online learning are integrated to form an excellent resource, which provides an opportunity for change.”

“Thank you so much for your wonderful courses. I really love the way you combine meditation, psychology and spiritual concepts in such a user-friendly, manageable format. I am calmer, less reactive, more creative and productive despite life constantly hurling bombs at me. I am grateful for your guidance. Not many Yoga teachers have the experience to guide me in this way. I feel connected and trusting of you because you have shown me how to trust and connect with myself in a most real and wonderful way.”
