“Jag är beyond tacksam, inspirerad (in-spirit-ed haha) och lycksalig. Rörd till tårar. Jag har blivit påmind och visad återigen. Att kultivera och värna om varandet och tillåtandet av detta frö att blomstra i mitt liv är primärt. Jag kan andas igen, jag lämnar i kärlek och mina steg bär inte tyngden som när jag anlände. Jag är så glad att jag hamnade i din famn som omhuldar och stöttar stillheten och rörelsen av denna potenta energi, i ihågkommandet och hemkommandet. Ditt uttryck av liv är så vackert. På återseende.
“After working with Vaani (Marie), many blocks and misconceptions have been cleared, Kundalini circuit flows up and down like a river without resistance, I enter shoonya, sometimes I merge with reality around me, I become everyone and everything. This aliveness in the body, full of life energy! I am the form of consciousness and bliss, I am the eternal! Forever grateful.”
“Marie is an embodied power of liberation. Her eye deeksha is the strongest I have ever received. Thank you from every corner of my heart.”
“It’s been 3 weeks post Shaktipat with Vaani. I thought I was experiencing bliss and absorption before but now it’s a whole new level, I fall into a meditative state very easily, quickly and deeply. The bliss is like an orgasmic force rising followed with bright white light or stars/fireworks. It all comes in waves moments of deep stillness and then the bliss just comes out all of a sudden and back to deep stillness that keeps going deeper as the meditation goes on. I am so amazed and grateful for this rapid shift and so looking forward to next Shaktipat soon and to hear Vaani’s magical singing voice. Thank you.”
“THANK YOU!
It’s only 10 months since I found this online ashram and started participating in the Shaktipat events, 1:1 sessions with Vaani, 7 day intensive transmissions and zoom meetings. I feel alive!
I see clearly, I can express myself without effort, I am confident, present, and mind is silent. I feel so natural, I literally feel home everywhere, I love and feel loved. I am love.
Many blocks and misconceptions have been cleared, Kundalini circuit flows up and down like a river without resistance, I enter shoonya, sometimes I merge with reality around me, I become everyone and everything.
This aliveness in the body, full of life energy!
I am the form of consciousness and bliss, I am the eternal shiva!
Forever grateful.”
“I had the immense joy and a deep heartfelt HOMECOMING, meeting Vaani. I stand in immense reverence for Rohan and Vaani for the field of energy. The experience was as gentle as it could be and the unfolding as potent it can BE.”
“Vaani embodies Grace in each particle of her being and with that touch of grace and ease she guides you effortlessly through any hardship. One simple touch or look can remind you of how simple it can be to…simply be. And all that other stuff, that we do to keep ourselves from true self-love, she silently holds space for in an all-encompassing way.”
“My heart just exploded energy rushes up and down my spine out top of my head crown lit up. I’m home! My heart just knows the truth and I spoke with god/source, “ I never left you my child” what on earth just happened. Tears and shaking and laughing I saw angel wings and a man in my vision.”
“With her gentle touch she meets you where you’re at and lifts you into growth. Her words are clear, articulate and light with detachment. Her radiant smile and calm voice is soothing to the soul. To me, she is living proof that words, culture, ideologies, theories, countries and all such false impressions are irrelevant… as a human whose root is in communion with it’s crown has nothing to do but silently emanate this gyan with grace. Deeply grateful for her loving presence.”

TEACHER’S BIO
Marie Lindström (Vaani)
Marie Lindström holds space for and empowers awakening beings to discover their innate divinity through honest and passionate transmissions of devotional grace. So that you can experience the true inner peace, health, and well-being that comes through spiritual liberation and enlightenment.
Marie’s teachings and meditations are transmissions rooted in her own experiences and states of ecstatic Divine Rapture and Self-realization, as well as Siddha Yoga (spontaneous inner yoga that unfolds after Kundalini awakening) and nondual Kashmiri Trika Tantra. They remind you that divinity and source are not something outside of you, something to connect to, but truly your own true nature—something to center into and directly experience within yourself.
Her transmissions are for the seeker of spiritual truth and embodiment of wisdom and grace, the advanced meditator and the Kundalini awakened, the yogi and the tantrika. And if you seek to awaken your Kundalini energy, being attuned to her transmission might just inspire Ma Kundalini to activate, as it has for many others before you.
Marie’s positive influence inspires you to connect with divinity within, know it as your own existence, and integrate and embody the knowing soundly. The world needs you to know. So that you can share Your light in the world.
