Sacred Shamanistic Pilgrimage To Nepal with Bhola Banstola

27th generation, Nepalese Jhankri, Bhola Banstola, who is a hereditary shamanic healer, and an experienced guide and shamanic teacher is offering an opportunity to study his culture’s rich shamanic traditions–in Nepal!

During his remarkable immersive tour, you will be meeting shamans of different ethnic backgrounds (both men and women) in their healing spaces. You will have the opportunities to learn in-depth healing practices in a beautiful, indoor conference hall that was especially created for this purpose, outdoors in the sacred places and temple complex and out in Nature. You will be visiting shamans who transmit long lineages of wisdom in their homes for consultations, divination and healing. The program is designed in such a way that you will have four to five days full-immersion in indoor experiential classes with healing rituals and ceremonies; visits to sacred places to offer prayers and ceremonies; power places and temples; medieval palaces, squares, and much more.

You will have the opportunity to trek to villages and a sacred mountain to an altitude of 7000 feet. Walking through the villages and forests for two days, you will be provided with tents and Home Stays with families. During this time, bags and other necessities will be carried by porters, and all your meals will be cooked by our expert chefs.

In Kathmandu, you will be staying at the Apsara Boutique Hotel, a brand new property with garden restaurant and conference-retreat facilities. With that as your home base, you will be visiting all the three cities of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Patan. There you will experience temples dedicated to different deities, Pharping, Chobar, Pashupatinath temple, Swayambhunath ”Monkey temple,” Boudhanilakantha/Reclining Vishnu Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, and other sacred places that are specifically connected with healing.

This trip coincides with Dashain, a national nine-day festival in Nepal dedicated to Goddess Durga and her nine most powerful emanations. During that time, you will be working on myths, rituals, and healing aspects associated with feminine power.

Bhola prefers to work with small groups so that you will have ample time to discuss and share your experiences.
