Our Recent Work

Online 75 min Taster Event - on April 25, 2026

Inner Masculine - Inner Feminine Energywork

  • Facilitated by Safar, Star Sapphire

  • Hosted by Hollow-Bamboo Innovations

Highlights:

  • 50+ participants from 6 countries!

  • Demo practice, guided exercise, Q&A

  • First Time in the USA!

Experiential insights in just 30 minutes of guided practice:

  • For some — it went deep

  • For others — opened questions, intrigued about what came up or didn't

  • Some felt gentle discomfort — energies not quite accessible yet

All completely natural and part of the process!

What moved us most:

The questions that arose from that touched space — beautiful, alive, searching. A sign that something genuine had been contacted.

No right or wrong. No expected experience. Just an honest meeting, first for many, with something real.

“The taster session provided a pause that I never thought I needed. Allowed me to focus on myself for a few moments, steering me away from the chaotic world for a bit.

Looking forward to attending one of the retreats!!!”

Namrata, Physician, Lafayette, IN

“The experience was amazing; I felt so much energy even though it was on zoom. It’s an interesting therapeutic experience that we need and could use as a diagnostic tool for sanyassins (seekers), not as an analytical tool, but something rooted in meditative presence. It could be useful for anyone on the path of self-awareness. 

It is hard for me to describe in words truly how the experience was - it felt like an instinctive awareness of the feminine vs masculine energy - how we can beautifully blend them for a harmonious whole.

I am so much more aware now of which eye is functioning - and that we don’t see the same way through our both eyes, same as we don’t breathe the same way through either nostril.

I would love to join the retreat.”

Diala K., Seeker / Professional, Boston, MA.

Testimonials by Taster Participants

“I deeply enjoyed the experiential session exploring how our inner masculine and inner feminine perceive the world. The practice of being fully present and genuinely engaging in conversation with a fellow participant was both grounding and eye-opening. It created a sense of connection and awareness that felt rare and meaningful.

I walked away with a quiet sense of incompleteness - not in a negative way, but as a gentle longing to experience more of that presence and depth again.”

Manjari, Engineer / Tech professional, San Diego, CA

“The workshop itself was a warm and supportive environment, with a group that quickly felt safe and connected despite being strangers. Regarding the exercise to explore the emotional and rational sides of the brain while reflecting on our lives. Although I didn’t notice strong differences between each hemisphere, I initially felt a sense of vulnerability that eased as I settled into the process. The facilitators created a grounded, respectful space, and overall, it was an enjoyable and gently thought-provoking experience.”

Dermot Flatley, Integrative Psychotherapist & Recovery Education Facilitator, Galway City, Ireland

“The Taster was a good start. Short and sweet. Nice theme to explore and it’s a very important and vast aspect of our lives to know the feminine and masculine sides”.

Swami Murali, Los Angeles, CA

“It was a totally different kind of experience for me. First of its kind in the USA. In the past I have visited Swami Yogananda’s center in LA and have been considering Sadhguru’s Isha center in TN. I will be joining the retreat in September”.
