Because some people have more financial means than others, this program has a sliding scale fee system to accommodate a range of economic realities. The middle of the scale reflects the value we believe the program holds, and the low-end offers a more accessible entry point. By choosing a higher price point, you are helping make the program more accessible to others.

About the Instructor
Faculty Swami Ravi Rudra Bharati was a clinical professor of psychiatry at LSU in New Orleans before going to India to train in homeopathy and ayurveda in 1973. He returned to help with the fledgling Himalayan Institute, where he set up a combined therapy program and developed a chain of holistic medical centers in the Northeast and Midwest. After writing Radical Healing as a completion of his medical and psychiatric career in 1998, he turned to teaching the principles of tantra that had run through his 20 years of study under Swami Rama. He took his sannyasa in the fall of 2016, and now teaches and writes at Dancing Shiva at Earthaven Ecovillage.
