About the School

Blue Throat Yoga is a School for Deep Meditation Practice and Study, designed to help you establish great freedom and joy in daily life.

The Three Pillars of Blue Throat Yoga: Neelakantha Meditation, Retreats and Study establish a strong lifetime foundation for anyone seeking depth and profound growth in life.

Based on the daily practice of Neelakantha Meditation, you are invited to return home to your own heart, settling deeply inside to access the natural bliss, ease, and beauty of life itself. Neelakantha Meditation comes from the ancient Tantric teachings of Svatantra, the true freedom of Consciousness, and is offered by Master Teacher, Dr. Paul Muller-Ortega, as well as by the Authorized Teachers of Neelakantha Meditation located in the U.S. and abroad, in a perfectly contemporary form that supports and uplifts daily “householder” life.
  You contain unimaginable magnificence inside of you and that magnificence must reveal itself. Practice the sublime path of the Great Return. Practice the great journey of ascension. Practice the great crossing. Awaken from the dream and remember who you really are.

Begin by learning Neelakantha Meditation at an Initiation Course or Vibrating Silence Retreat; or while taking the foundational Entering the Heart of Shiva Course (link to new location) and expand infinitely from there. You may also choose to begin your studies with an Webinar or Audio Course to learn more from the comfort of your own home. These practical and deeply effective teachings and practices are open to all. Join us in the Great Space of the Heart! Unfold the untold possibility inside you!

Life is full of astonishment, bliss, nectar. And it is also full of extraordinary challenges that demand a reconfiguration of a higher level of Consciousness within each one of us. We must understand that process and how to most beautifully cooperate with it.
