About Shivjyoti

Shivjyoti first traveled to India, guided by an inner calling at 21. The first of more than two dozen trips which uncovered various mystical experiences. Called by a longing to 'know the Truth' (in Sanskrit - Sanathan Dharma) she has dedicated herself wholeheartedly to the spiritual path and time honoured path of Yoga (including Bhakti, Karma, Raja & Gyana).

Through rather extreme spiritual discipline and travelling with her spiritual master, was brought the fortune of meeting many enlightened saints and sages. This journey has been an interesting and eye opening one! Travelling to holy sites in the Himalayas, staying at Kumbha Mela's, representing Australia at the inaugural International Day of Yoga in Delhi and meeting the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi, she has discovered and shares from an abundance of experiential wisdom and practical application of spiritual knowledge gained through the path of Sannyas.  

Awarded into the Dasanami order of Sannyas (monkshood) in 2013 and with the immense blessings of Sri Alakhpuri Siddha Peetha Parampara which descends from Adi Shankaracharya, following the path of Advaita Vedanta (non-duality) she dedicates herself and time for all who seek and follow their purpose in life.  

Over the years Shivjyoti has developed Meditation and Chakra courses and taught thousands on the path of inner inquiry. Opening her first Yoga studio in Burleigh Heads in 2005 and managing a large Ashram she now supports spiritual souls in Melbourne, where she resides at Shivoham.  

‘Fifteen years spent with the Spiritual Masters imbued countless gifts and was the support I needed to awaken inner talents and the practical understanding of spiritual life. Blessed in the mighty Himalayas, I share with all who come and feel the malas I create are connection back to source for each individual to carry with them and use for spiritual practices in their own life’.

May All be Happy, May all be content, May Peace be Everywhere.
