10-Day Retreat
simply magical. In fact, it ranks as one of my life's most treasured
memories. As my intention is to become my most bodyproud in body,
mind, heart, and spirit, I welcomed everything they had to offer. They
helped open me up to a new awareness, a better state of being. I
witnessed and experienced 'magic'. Surreal things became my reality: I
felt energy moving inside me during healing sessions; I developed a
new appreciation for the outdoors because now 'nature' seems brighter
to me and also raises my spirit; I released unnecessary emotions that
stemmed from my past and affected my present; I rectified situations
that had not even crossed my mind as being rectifiable; and I actually
experienced a shift in my perception, automatic reactions, thought
processes, and overall happiness. So, if your intention is to enjoy
life more -- and since you were drawn to this website -- I highly
encourage you give Seeds of Life your full attention. If you do, I
also invite you to please share your Transformation-Triumph journey
within the BodyProud Community. Together, we can make this world a
more loving and happy place.
From the time you both arrived at our place we could feel an immediate charge of positive energy that expanded and blossomed each day of your stay. From energy healings to the reciting of mantras, from spiritual cleansing to powerful ceremonies, from fireside sessions to staring at the stars, both of you opened a whole new world in me. I felt an instant connection and love from both of you that made welcoming you into our home a natural feeling and we are excited to do it all again!
Both of our lives have been changed for the better and words alone can't express the powerful spiritual connection, air of energy and great overall feeling while being in your presence.
Thank you again for everything. I think of you everyday when I do the mantras and meditation sessions you taught us. You touched our lives forever. Namaste.

Group Healing
Group Healing is a phenomenal experience. One needs only to relax and enjoy, while the healing powers of the Universe go to work on Body, Mind, and Spirit. The first time I went, it felt like my body was going through internal car-wash – literally – as everything got cleaned, buffed, and shined. I have since been returning every week and each experience is different and never ceases to amaze. However, not only have I personally benefited but so have the people whose names I have put into our “Healing Box”. Four have been viewed as miracles as they’ve all had very surprising, quick recoveries to serious injuries and illnesses, when up until that point all looked quite hopeless. One person was fatally paralyzed and returned to work within the year, the other was temporarily paralyzed and was up and walking within months, and the third one was indefinitely hospitalized only to be finally well enough to return home. And, most awe-inspiring was the last one who was in a coma and suddenly woke up for a short while, afterI prayed to have the opportunity to at least say “good-bye". This powerful healing energy exists for everyone to tap into. Accessing it through Arathi Ma is an incredibly easy way to receive it. It’s like a gift waiting to be opened.
With love & gratitude,
Christine
Arathi Ma is one of the most powerful healing entities I have met in my short years. Working with Arathi Ma changed my life – it created a lasting effect that I still notice and feel 8 months later. She took my stress from an 8/10 to a 3/10 in a few treatments, and not by just covering up the feeling or sedating – her treatments actually changed the way I live and think about my life.
True healing to me doesn't just have to be medicines, herbs or needles – healing can be addressed on a spiritual level as well, and that is the level in which Arathi Ma works. This, in turn, affects the energetic, mental and physical body in a positive and profound way. Spiritual health is an aspect that is often neglected in our society and Arathi Ma’s style of healing definitely has a place in the healing process.

Top Qualities: Great Results, Expert, High Integrity
I have searched for years and years to rid myself of my inner noise and find that place of peace, of contentment and knowing, of unmistakable peace, contentment and knowing, not just reading about it or witnessing someone else’s but having it as my own. Finally, I feel I am on the right path. Silvana is very powerful but not power taking, she showed me how I can always connect with this centre, independent of her, now that is a great teacher.

I was just going through old e-mails and realized how different my life is now. Outwardly it looks maybe even a bit worse, but inwardly it is so different. I guess I always thought the outside should change faster and still struggle with not being able to integrate things right away, but I certainly get to it much closer right away. Before our work, the "knowing" was intellectual and now the "knowing" seems to be more embodied.
Thank you for all your support, Susanne
I am finding it difficult to put into words the gratitude I have, that Arathi Ma has come into our lives.
My Daughter was born with irregular blood vessels (that is what the doctors told us). We found this out Jan 26, 2007 when they burst and Hannah had to be rushed to BC children's hospital for emergency brain surgery. After 3 months of Therapy Hannah made a full recovery, she was 6 years old. Spring 2010 doctor's discovered 2 more irregular blood vessels had grown back. She was scheduled to have surgery October 22, 2010. About a month or so before her surgery I was told about a master healer named Arathi Ma. I instantly took my family to see her. Among other things, Arathi Ma was able to prepare Hannah's mind, body, soul and spirit for the surgery. My husband asked Arathi Ma not to work on the damaged blood vessels as he was concerned they could burst. Respectfully Arathi Ma agreed and we proceeded with the operation. Much to the surprise of the hospital, Hannah recovery was unusually speedy. Already 9 days later Hannah was out trick or treating with the other kids. Thank you so much Arathi Ma. We are truly blessed to have you in our lives.
We continue to see Arathi Ma regularly on other issues in our lives and the results are nothing more then Amazing.
We are blessed...Thank you Arathi Ma.

The first time i had a session with Sri Arathi Ma my life as I knew it would be changed forever, I was inflicted with terrible anxiety, depression, hopelessness all of my life plus a major, long standing back injury just to name a few-
I did not know my purpose in life...
As fate would have it, Sri Arathi Ma just happened to open her practice in Maple Ridge,
It has now been 3 months and I have changed my perspective on life tremendously.
My ability to handle stress now is amazing I am able to deflect the negative energy and except what life has given me — I wake up cheerful in the morning (not normal for me — ask my co-workers) my back is completely pain free, I am much more pleasant to people, I put out good energy to people everywhere I go and I can certainly see what a positive impact it makes and also I no longer dwell on things I cannot control or change.
I will continue to practice and grow spiritually with Sri Arathi Ma forever she is truly a gift from the higher being and am so gracious the universe allowed us to cross paths — I urge every one to go and see her-you can tell right away just being around her takes you to a level of calmness and awareness of your self you have not ever experienced

I feel very fortunate that my path has crossed with Silvana Arathi Ma's. My naturopath Dr. Sharon Gurm recommended Arathi Ma to me for treatment of a lifetime with chronic social anxiety. I have tried many routes of anxiety treatment and none have left me feeling as good about myself and my place in the world as I do after being treated by Arathi Ma. On the outside I have always been a happy, healthy, and successful woman, but on the inside a war was going on between my feelings of inferiority and my anger surrounding childhood emotional abuse. It did not take Arathi Ma long to help me unload a substantial amount of anger that I had been harbouring for decades, thereby enabling me to recognize my specialness and self-worth. Through Arathi Ma's work, I became ready to hear, understand, and internalize the wisdom of compassion that she shared with me -- and I am forever grateful.
Thank you.

"I first visited Arathi Ma after losing our baby girl in a complicated cesarean section. Not only had we lost our baby girl, but due to massive hemorrhaging and other complications, I had almost lost my uterus. After Arathi performed healing on me I immediately began to feel better (both emotionally and physically). I spent the next 6 months recovering before I visited her a second time.The reason for my second visit was to see if she could help me conceive naturally. The doctors had told me that my chances of getting pregnant were low, and that I would require the help of fertility drugs. They were wrong. 1 month after Arathi Ma performed healing on me, I found out I was pregnant! I am currently 5 months pregnant with what my husband and I call, "the miracle baby" and we couldn't thank Arathi Ma enough! Thank you Arathi Ma for not only being such an amazing healer but a great source of support"

I am 69 years old and have spent the better part of my life looking for help. I wanted someone to take away the deep depression I was in. I was on anti-depressants which did nothing. I was mentally, physically and sexually abused as a child. I carried it through my life like wearing a "jacket" you hated but you still put it on every day of your life. It's not what happens to you but how you let it affect you. I chose to let it almost destroy me. For reasons I have now had explained to me, I found satisfaction I keeping the pain alive. I almost enjoyed wearing the "jacket". But something deep inside me knew it was wrong. I wanted to be free.
It was crippling me. The saddest thing was that it was making me loose my faith. But thank God, you can never loose your faith once you have found it.
And it all has come together for me with the amazing help of Silvana. All that pain I had been storing inside my body has been removed. The jacket came off. I found the help that I needed. I could write pages and pages elaborating on the things I can do now. The most important being, that I can think of the people who abused me without anger, hatred and fear. It's gone.
They can never hurt me again. But the most profound thing was learning to love myself. These words may not sound earth shaking but please believe me, that's what it all comes down to. God really want us to love ourselves.
When you do that nobody can hurt you ever again. Just finish your life being a good person and all will be well.
Open your heart to Silvana and let the healing begin. In my case, Silvana saw it was necessary for me to see Dr. Jamie Gallant. For me he healed the other part of my being that SIlvana was doing for me or vice versa. Together they brought me to where I am today. The jacket is off and I will continue to see them both until I am secure with where I am.

Highly Recomended to me by Dr. Boutet, Sri Arathi Ma helped me unblock biological and energetic areas in my body. Afterwards these issues were really easy to treat or didn't need any assistance at all anymore.
She is very easy to share your ideas with and not judgemental.
After our work together, the next day, I am still continuing to learn much about the mind body connection. My only regret is, that there is not enough time in a day to ask her all the questions I have.
I do have faith and love back in my life.
Thank you,

I have had a lung problem for over 2 years. The doctors say it is Usual Interstitial Pneumonia (not curable). I had developed a bubble of fluid in between the membranes of the right lung (which was surgically removed).
Diagnosis was slow and this year, a month ago, it was so bad, I was so out of breath that I could not walk more than 10 steps without stopping to regain my strength and breath. I demanded oxygen to improve the quality of my life. It helped me do work around the house.
For 2 weeks now I had had healing from Silvana which has improved my breathing tremendously and I now am functioning healthily normal (went back to Taekwondo). I went 4 days without any oxygen. But, I would still use the oxygen for hard work to help the lungs.
My overall health is much better now.
Peter Rogers, June 2010
I've been coming to see Silvana Arathi Ma for over 1 year now. I came to her to help overcome a lot of physical and mental problems that had been with me for over 5 years. I've seen several doctors and had a lot of testing done but they were never able to diagnose or fix any of the problems I had.
Fortunately, Silvana was able to not only able to recognize but also fix a lot of the problems. My amazing experiences even went far beyond healing. I would have amazing experiences and visions that would carry on outside her sessions. One time when she was working on me, I had an incredible sensation of energy and light run through my head. It felt like someone turned on a power breaker in my head. Since that day, it removed a lot of my anxiety, my stomach problems, and I had some amazing visions of being able to see people and events. This all goes to prove that miracles can happen and that there is something out there far greater than conventional thinking.
P.J. Herman
Prepare to be blessed by the light of spirit as miracles happen in the
graceful presence of Silvana Arathi Ma. Experience the profound and
powerful healing work of the divine. I have found my soul's true inner voice
of peace and love. Many sacred blessings and gratitude await.

I am still surprised, the quality of my days and nights is soooo much better, normal :) (the brahma mantra as you probably guessed. xxx" N
This mantra is heaven sent. My mind loves it ahhhhhh a god send. Better sleep and reduced hot flushes, such good occurrences. I'm so grateful that you have these wisdoms for me to find. x N (ps. I would love to continue to find myself with you and will contact you again in the near future.)
Thank you for today,
It has taken me years to manage eye contact and not shake all over
and I just realized I was able to do this and not shake or clench my
jaw at all in your presence YAY - success, I am growing. Perhaps
the intensity in my eyes can now as you said.. soften inwardly. So
much to learn, so many extraordinary little nuances I seem to have
backwards. Thank you for helping me. big hug N x

"I first went to Arathi Ma for the meditation circle in her house. What struck me was her welcoming loving presence and the lack of rigidity that I have seen in other meditation places. Since then I have gone to see her individually and have started classes with her. Our work together addresses everything from my art projects, frustrations with trivial things in my life, to questions about my spiritual existence and how can my true nature unfold in my daily life. Arathi is a great teacher, who connects with me at the place where I am at and her rich life experience allows her to easily relate to the problems I face. I feel accepted, loved and encouraged to flower."
Maia, Documentary Filmmaker
"Silvana helped me re-discover ‘self-’ respect, determination and love. My journey to achieve greater physical, emotional and spiritual awareness was tough, but, ultimately, fulfilling. Thank you."

"Arathi Ma has opened my eyes to a life I had previously only dreamed of. I now know what my life mission is and am truly blessed and grateful to have Arathi guide me to its fullest manifestation."
Margaret S.
Upon first meeting Arathi one recognizes her warmth, friendliness and focused attention. These, combined with her energy knowledge and energy applications, has really been beneficial in dealing with a long - hindering issue of mine, and some more recent personal challenges. Happily, she is light in her approaches and enjoys humour as well as seriousness. Since moving from Vancouver to the Okanagan last summer it has been a relief to still be able to carry on our sessions via phone. And the best is yet to come! Arathi is now commencing reintroducing me to my true self, our true nature by way of the Divine Light (Jothi). I expect this will be, when I see it and finally understand it, freedom...... my vehicle for conscious evolving. Good luck to you too!!

Arathi Ma is an amazingly gifted healer. She is opening my eyes, brain, heart and soul to a new depth of awareness and understanding about myself and the larger universe. Silvana has taught me how to trust my own healing intuition and has helped me to dig deeper into my own healing process. It is very clear to me that this path has the potential to bring meaningful, lasting peace and health. I am very grateful to Arathi Ma for sharing her gifts with me.

Arathi,
Firstly, I would really like to thank-you for a fabulous experience over the
weekend. Both through the work we are doing together one on one and the
course, I feel like I am coming to know a part of myself again... I know this
person quite well and am loving reconnecting with my essence...its quiet,
peaceful, content and full of sparkles. So thank-you.....

"Hi Silvana, I would like to thank you for last nights diksha. You did give me the Divine Love Diksha not to long ago and I did go through some uncomfortable experiences but this time I am just feeling pure love today. I see things differently today; I believe I am seeing with my heart today instead of my mind. I can't explain it but you know what I mean. Every thing is beautiful...... Thanks Silvana for your teachings and your friendship."
Love and Light

Dear Arathima, I felt great during the instructions. The magnetic ray falling from the top was making me numb and all my thoughts were settling down. Just like the ocean of thoughts with the high waves was settled and the silent water with absolutely no disturbance given me peace. It was also like a baby sleeping in the mom's arms. The experience was wonderful.
Thank you so much,
Regards,

Wisdom Classes
"I have been participating in the Wisdom Classes given by Arathi Ma since September 2007. During the past five years, I have taken many workshops and courses related to spiritual teachings. None has been as beneficial as the Wisdom Classes. Through the weekly classes, we were given practical tools (e.g. polarity squares) and theory to help shift our old beliefs and to bring in new self awareness. The experience has given me a totally new way of looking at life and my soul's journey. Since beginning the classes and working with Arathi Ma, I have felt more calmness and inner peace than ever before. I also found her CDs to be very accessible and interesting since I missed a few of the classes. I would highly recommend this transformative course to anyone who is searching for the deeper meaning of life."
Vera Lagasse
"Following the path with Arathi Ma improves your life be-yond your expectations and wildest imagination...and I do mean "life" not just work. We're always associating our full potential and purpose with our careers and minds but it's so much more than that. When we follow and lead from our hearts the whole world changes. Arathi has the power to help you really make that transition, outside of the books & brain. The following quote says it all "don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And, then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive" ~Howard Thurman""

Global Grace Light Event - Nov, 2007
Participant’s experiences
Thanks so much for last night--I experienced the coming of the light at
least 3 times during the half hour. It was very beautiful and I have felt
quite 'lifted up' ever since.
Love,
Cathy
When I gazed upon your face, I felt such a powerful otherworldly presence. It was as if the face of God was looking at me and saying, "You are my precious child and you are loved infinitely." At the beginning of the transmission, I felt a fire burning throughout my being, as if my karma was being totally dissolved. It felt very freeing. Then I was able to feel the hand of Jothi over my heart, emanating light from that source. The hand also gently moved upward and touched my throat which was in need of healing and soothing. At one point, when I focused on trying to receive the light in my hands, it felt so heavy, as if my hands could not initially hold in all of the light that was being transmitted. There was also major movement around my third eye, which feels like the beginning of its awakening. Since participating in the Global Jothi transmission, I have been in a state of peace and serenity, unlike any other previously experienced. I feel so much gratitude.
With love,
Vera
Thank you for providing me with the jothi experience this past Friday night. My experience during the transmission was deeply moving - I felt an unusual sensation of heaviness throughout my body and tingling on the palms of my hands. I visualized the image of the palm of the hand at my chest level and radiant white beams extending outwards from my chest and body extremities, and felt the image of thousands of beams of white light encircling the earth. At times I would gaze at your outstretched palms and felt the connectedness of light - directly from your palms to my heart level. I chanted "Jothi" silently during the transmission and my mind was quiet from any other thoughts except "Peace and Enlightenment" occasionally floated through my awareness. At the end of the transmission, I felt inner calm and full of love and light.
Thank you,
Nancy
Thank you so much for including us in this special event. I'm very happy for you and forn the world! I'm just running off to another engagement but I wanted to write right away. As I left your house, I looked over my shoulder and saw a huge ring of light around the moon - as if the light has indeed expanded! Have a look outside if you haven't already done so and I hope you can catch a glimpse. In love and gratitude,
Christine
I did feel an initial whoosh of light and energy when we first started -poor guy beside me started coughing) but that didn't last for me. The hand that I visualized did not have any light coming from it at first - and it took me a minute to remember to chant 'Jothi'. After I'd visualized the hand and chanted for a while, the hand grew much bigger and began to glow a little. My visualization was a bit strange as it turned into a large 3-d hand that I was above somehow - I tried to go back to the smaller hand that was posted on the email message and the wall - but finally just went with the hand as it wanted to appear - around which I svivelled somewhat during the meditation. I chanted and visualized diligently for about 20 minutes wondering where the light was (snippets were coming through - but it was as if I wasn't ready yet) - trying not to force anything. At that point the hand started glowing more strongly and very quickly a strong light filled me and was outside me and I could feel myself relaxing. Near the end this became more intense and my body heated up and I felt much lighter. There were moments at this point when the light and energy felt so intense that I felt as if I was going to be completely overwhelmed and swept away. At the very end I experienced what seemed like a final spasm of light and energy - like a crescendo - and my body felt much lighter and flowing. The meditation during the next half an hour was great - felt like I was integrating and using the energy to open up several chakras. Also had some fleeting visions that felt a bit like premonitions.
Love, Angela
What did happen was that I became really relaxed, and I had trouble keeping my palms facing skyward and they ended up almost facing each other. There was some energy in between my hands and it felt as if I was holding a disk. That continued for several minutes and then I almost fell asleep. It was then that I was jolted out of my groggy state when a woman's head popped into my mind. She had blond hair and steel blue eyes, and it almost seemed as if her image was slightly warped, as if she was staring at me through a glass. This image jolted me out of my relaxation and then the image disappeared.
Thanks for including me.
Jason
I did notice one thing during the global event. Sometime in the beginning it felt like someone tapped me with their finger between my eyes. Never had this happen before so maybe this had to do with my third eye being affected. I also remember imagining light enveloping me, then the room, the city, world, solar system and universe. Then I imagined I was a light particle travelling throughout the universe.
Thank you, Jamie
I had a very quiet experience. When I came into the room while you were meditating, I saw/felt waves of light emanating in circles, like ripples from a stone dropped in water. The transmission was peaceful for me - I did not notice much except for a sense of great calm. Outside in the dark, I saw that the moon had a huge aura around it such as I have never seen before. Love, Margaret
I followed all the instructions and sat there chanting. At first nothing seemed to happened then just when I thought to give up, I felt this dislocation much akin to being stretched like taffy. I remember looking down (in my mind) and seeing my feet a long way away. This happened twice. Then I was back to normal and awake. It lasted all of 10 minutes but it was enough for me. I did have a tossing-turning kind of sleep that night but woke up refreshed (and also by the sound of my 4-year old screaming at her 7-year old brother). But I now think that was assimilation in progress (the turbulent sleep, that is). I feel balanced and more serene in the midst of all the hectic whirlwind called parenthood.
We'll see what else will be brought up in the future.
Thank you.
Patrick
"The mood was very still and weightless. However, after it was over, I felt sad and lonely. It seemed that the light transmission brought out some unconscious material to be processed. But soon the feelings subsided and I went into a deep, yet light sense of calm that has continued to last. The effect of the transmission was very subtle, but I believe it will continue to hold a space of enlightenment within me. It does not seem like something that slips away like a passing experience, more like a reality that has been awakened!"
Charles Cox
Energetically I felt pulsations in my crown chakra, third eye as well as continued pulsations (I had been experiencing for 6-7 weeks) midway between my heart and throat chakra. For the most part those chest pulsations seem to have subsided since the Jothi Event. There were also sensations of energy work on my left shoulder, which has improved significantly. Emotionally I sensed integration and healing, with the return of a five, eight and 15 year old fragmented parts of myself. After the Event, I did some energy work on my 21-year old son Jordan, who had also sat in. His heart chakra, which had been quite contracted, opened allowing him to connect with a deep core issue. I found this quite amazing as I was 47 years, when I uncovered the same issue.
Blessings,
Gordon
I had to think about it for a few days before I answered. The experience was different from what I thought. Instead of feeling all nice
and warm, I kept getting itchy everywhere. Then I could hear everything,
including a watch ticking across the room. But since then I have felt very
strong. This is coming out everywhere, in my work and personal life.
Renee
My reflections on the Global Jothi Event...
My experience was fairly subtle. I was aware of a glowing sensation in my chest when I put my awareness there, but it seemed to take a lot of concentration to maintain my focus on the image of the hand. I felt very connected to you and the people that were with you (maybe in space or just energy?) and had a very clear image of being in your space - that actually helped to ground me and keep me present. I did feel like I was tapping into something big, but that experience is not unique to the transmission for me, so I'm not sure if I should attribute that to this particular experience.
