Dasha Mahavidya Retreat Australia
In 5 days, you’ll learn how to work with forces that reshape your mind, dissolve patterns, and return you to clarity.
The Dasha Mahavidya are among the most ancient and potent teachings of the Tantric path. They were never intended for surface-level understanding. This is a living sadhana that works on the deepest layers of consciousness. For this reason, these teachings have always been held as sacred and carefully protected.
At the heart of this work is Kali, not as a concept or an idea, but as a living force expressed through ten distinct aspects. Each aspect carries a precise intelligence and opens a different doorway into power, truth, and transformation. Together, they reveal a complete map of consciousness and the forces that shape it.
In this work, you do not stand apart and observe. You enter into relationship with these forces. You work with them directly and allow them to reshape how you think, feel, and move through life. This is where real change begins, not through theory, but through lived experience.
REQUIREMENT FOR PARTICIPATION

Minimum one year of consistent spiritual or meditation practice

- Feel called to work with Shakti and the Divine Feminine

Your Guide & Training
Anand Mehrotra has only offered the full Dasha Mahavidya Initiator Training twice. I completed this training and am now bringing this transmission to Australia. This is one of the rarest teachings in the Tantric tradition.
This means:
- You’re learning from someone trained in an unbroken lineage –
- The practices are authentic, not adapted
- The container is held with real depth and expertise
Over the past 8 years, I’ve guided 60+ students through transformative retreats in India. The feedback is consistent: people return home with a completely reorganised relationship to their spiritual practice and their life. Now is your chance to experience this in Australia.
What Are the Mahavidyas?
The Dasha Mahavidyas are a 10,000-year-old Tantric system for understanding and working with the forces of consciousness. Each of the ten goddesses represents a different aspect of power, transformation, and clarity.
Instead of learning about them intellectually, you work with them through mantra, breathwork, and direct practice.
Think of it this way: Most spiritual practices teach you concepts. This retreat teaches you to *work with living forces*.
By the end, you’ll have a daily practice you can continue for life.

THE 100-DAY SADHANA
This retreat is not an ending. It’s a beginning. After the 5 days, you receive a complete 100-day personal sadhana, a structured practice for developing intimate relationship with each of the ten Mahavidyas.
This extended practice is what creates lasting transformation. Most teachers don’t offer this. Anand included it in the training because the real work happens in the months after the retreat.
You will:
- Work with one Mahavidya per week for 10 weeks – Build a daily practice you can continue for life –
- Access ongoing support through our WhatsApp community
- Attend integration calls at weeks 4 and 8
This 100-day commitment is what separates those who have an experience from those who create real, lasting change.
