Join the Love Feast
Shekina Selah is an agape-centered tantric feast. We are a gathering of lovers intent on honoring YHWH through the exalted mystic union of male and female.
Circle gatherings are held monthly to express devotional love through sensual touch, soul gazing and intimate postures. We also praise through the singing of hymns and bhajan, the reading of scripture and the sharing of personal testimony. No knowledge of tantra or mystic Christianity is required, only a desire to expand your awareness and share yourself with another. Additionally, we practice mantra japa, silent meditation, and partner bhakti to strengthen our expression of unconditional love.
Our emphasis is on reverence beyond mere appreciation for both the transcendental and imminent aspects of God as manifested through masculine and feminine. It is a powerful meditative act to focus on one's partner as an embodiment of the Divine. When our Divine nature is fed, it increases, manifesting love and peace in our everyday lives. What's more, love is our greatest offering to God with tangible effects.
We gather from all faiths and from all quarters in the name of love.

“In many shamanic societies, if you came to a medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask one of four questions. When did you stop dancing? When did you stop singing? When did you stop being enchanted by stories? When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence?” — Gabrielle Roth
Services are held in Maryland and in Philadelphia.
A book list will be suggested as well as mantras to orientate group members toward the same objective.
In order to engage in partnered tantric meditation, members are encouraged to bring their beloved spouse or intended. Alternatively, a good friend of the opposite gender would also be conducive. When ten participants have registered, a feast will be held. If you are unpartnered at this time, come and enjoy in anticipation of your beloved.
Welcoming all seekers... Come and be what you are. Come merge on deepening levels with your beloved in an atmosphere of sacred playfulness.

"When you are making love don't control. Go into uncontrol, go into chaos. It will be fearful, frightening, because it will be a kind of death. And the mind will say "Control!" And the mind will say, "Jump in and keep control, otherwise you will be lost in the abyss of it." Don't listen to the mind, get lost. Abandon yourself utterly and without any technique you will come to see a timeless experience. There will be no two in it: oneness. A consciousness will be there, a lucid passive consciousness will be there, you will know what is happening because you will be fully aware. But you will not be there; awareness will be there."

"The peerless, jubilant festival of Radha-Krishna's mutual love is eternal.
It's never bound by the confines of a single birth. Whatever destiny may bring to that couple,
their love never waivers. That love is supremely independent and has no cause outside itself.
Those lovers relish the nectar of their association always.
That astonishing, blissful love eternally increases in beauty and splendor."
