Invoking the Goddess with Nina Rao and Dr Joanna Kujawa

If you liked my interview with Krishna Das, you will love this one as well. Nina gives us tools to connect with the Feminine Aspects of the Divine and discusses the Hindu Goddess Tradition as well as her own experience of the Divine as both Feminine and Masculine. We also talk about restoring the balance between the Feminine and Masculine aspects in us and in the world. We invoke the Goddess of Wisdom and talk about spiritual practices such as invoking the names of the Goddess, the power of the name itself and the Energy that it brings into our lives.
Much love, Dr Joanna Kujawa
