**Module 4 out of 4 \| February 20th – 22nd 2026 \| Nicolae Catrina \(Adinathananda\) \| Berlin \(MahaYoga Zentrum\)** **Starting on February 20th at around 19:00 CET and ending on February 22nd at 17:30 CET.** *Please be aware, that you **can** participate if you didn’t participate at the previous modules.* **About the Workshop** Patanjali’s treatise ‘Yoga Sutras’ is more than two thousand years old, but is still one of the best manuals for a harmonious and successful Yoga practice, which contains the essence of Yoga. It describes in detail the different states of meditation and spiritual awakening as well as the fundamental principles and ethics of Yoga, Yama and Niyama. Being based on inner experience, rather than exclusively theoretical knowledge, makes this treatise effective for anyone. The Tantric perspective on Yoga Sutras assists us to realise, that not only a safe and direct way to godly ecstasy (samadhi in Sanskrit) is described, but also on how to bring this elevated state of consciousness back to everyday life, outside of our Yoga practice. By achieving a deeper understanding and bringing life and depth to Patanjali’s aphorisms as well as access to the foundation of Yoga and the opportunity to experience samadhi here and now, either due to personal continuous practice or with Tantric practice in a loving couple, is what the Tantric perspective enables us to do. The purpose of this workshop is to reveal Patanjali’s brilliant vision of this path, which is found in all spiritual traditions, the refocussing on our essential Self (Atman in Sanskrit) from our ego (ahamkara). This is done by presenting the deep understanding and intuition, which are required to unveil the secrets of the Yoga Sutras. Practical methods, based on the original Sanskrit text, will be shared in order to: * Transform almost every moment of our daily life into a blissful spiritual realisation * Hugely improve both the quality, and the transformative power of our Yoga or Tantra practice * Obtain the revelation of our essential Self (Atman) * Deeply harmonise our love relationships * Enjoy an ever happy and fulfilling life. Join us for this culminating fourth module, where we journey into the serene and luminous teachings of the final chapter of the Yoga Sutras. Here, Patanjali reveals Kaivalya — the ultimate state of freedom, where the mind dissolves into stillness and pure consciousness rests in its own essence. Together, we will explore the profound liberation that arises when identification with thought and form falls away, and the practitioner abides in the clarity of their true nature. This final stage is not about gaining, but about releasing — the return to wholeness, simplicity, and peace. Rooted in deep practice and insight, this module invites us to experience the quiet radiance of awareness itself — the essence of yoga fulfilled. **About the instructor** **Nicolae Catrina (Adinathananda)** is a yoga instructor with more than 30 years of experience. Two decades ago he founded the only Kashmir Shaivism course in Europe that offers to the thousands of participants from Romania and abroad the riches and profoundness of this spiritual tradition in a unique way that is adapted to western mentality. His deep interest for various forms of authentic spirituality and his spiritual intuition have helped him elaborate over time a series of initiatic courses, such as Tantric Alchemy, Enneagram or esoteric I-Ching. He also created a unique system for the revelation of the Essential Self, Atman, based on a supramental approach – but also a very accessible one – for the revelation of the Self (based on the enlightening esthetic experience) that has already helped thousands of aspirants take important steps towards discovering their essential divine nature. He is the author of many books on Shaivism, Yoga, Tantra, Alchemy, initiatic art etc. He has translated many important yogic and tantric texts, such as Sundaryalahari, Shiva Samhita or Gheranda Samhita. He exclusively offers in his Shaivism courses numerous traditional, esoteric works, such as Shiva Sutra, Spanda Karika, Vijnana Bhairava Tantra etc., as well as their practical, deeply transforming knowledge in a new, innovative way. **Program** **20th of February** Evening session: 19:00 – 21:30 **21st and 22nd of February** 1st session: 10:30 – 13:00 Break: 13:00 – 15:00 2nd session: 15:00 – 17:30 **Price per module** **Early-Bird for the third module (until December 31st 2025):** 130,00 € **Normal:** 200,00 € **Cancellation policy** **Cancellation until 20th of January 2026:** Full refund **Cancellation between 21st – 31st of January 2026:** 15,00 € cancellation fee **Cancellation between 1st – 19th of February 2026:** 50 % cancellation fee (of the paid price) **Cancellation after 19th of February 2026:** No refund **Address** Deutsche Akademie für traditionelles Yoga e.

Have you ever seen a comedian before and thought you yourself, "Boy, oh boy, I'd sure love to give that guy a piece of my mind!" or, "Gee-whizz that was not bad at all!" or "Fuck this person." well then **this is the show for you!** **Sometimes People Are Shit is a show where comedians try out seven minutes of new material that nobody has ever heard before**. Maybe. That I can't quite guarantee but once their sets are over you, the people, get to give your feedback to the comedian. It could be good, it could be bad, but it will always be constructive! **Show starts at 22.00 sharp**. Get there nice and early for some good pre-gaming booze and tell your friends to tell their friends and so on, and so on.

👉 **Important:** We organize the run via **Strider**, our running coordination app. Route details, updates, and group chat are shared there — Meetup is just where people find us. **Please register on Strider before joining the run.** (Link below 👇) https://testflight.apple.com/join/uZ3131FV Come for the run.
