MAHASUKHa
The chanting of prayers, the insistent beat of a drum, all insinuate their way beneath the boundaries of individual ego-awareness, opening up the
gateway between the daylight world and the primal sea.” ~ Liz Greene
"Simply an amazing experience. The silence after the mantra
slowly died away was like nothing I've experienced.” ~ Rob

Sacred Space
Mahasukha is also a Buddhist and his name means Great Bliss.
Sukha also means, "good space", and where there is good space, there is happiness.
Creating a sacred space is at the heart of everything that Mahasukha does. A sacred space is
where all emotions and experiences are welcomed, seen and heard, and where anything that
needs transforming may be transformed. Our rawness and vulnerability, our discordant parts, our
longing for connection, for peace and belonging may be worked on, and through, in what may be a
magical alchemical process (and not without playfulness and humour!). As Joseph Campbell said,
“Your sacred space is where you can find yourself, again and again.”
And once we’ve found ourselves again, we feel more whole and content, we experience
gratitude, joy and bliss, our imaginations come alive and we feel more connected to
the sacred, to beauty, to love, both in ourselves and in the world.

"And breathe..." The breath will always be the touchstone. The mantra I say the most is, "keep breathing!" The breath is our best friend, always with us, always reliable, ever faithful. The breath grounds us, gets us out of our heads and back into our bodies and our present experience, bringing peace, calm and tranquility. Take a deep breath right now and feel the positive effect. |
"There is no house like the house of belonging."
~ David Whyte
Living a Sacred Life
Creating a sacred space is the common factor in everything Mahasukha does. A sacred space is where all emotions and experiences are welcomed and heard, and where anything that needs transforming may be transformed. Our raw, discontented experience, our longing for ‘more' and ‘better' may be worked on and through in what may be a magical alchemical process.
As Joseph Campbell said, “a sacred space is where you can find yourself, again and again.” And once we’ve found ourselves again, we are more whole and centred, and even a touch more sacred.

"Mahasukha is a born mentor and incredibly gifted." ~ Shakya
I have been a practicing Buddhist and 'soul searcher' for over 30 years. I have been
encouraging, guiding and inspiring people through coaching and mentoring for many
years (see the testimonials below). As well as singing, music and mantra, my interests
and practices include meditation, yoga, psychology, astrology and tarot. I am also
Reiki I and II qualified. The Magician archetype holds a special place in my heart.
I'm based in Brighton UK and my name means Great Bliss.
I offer coaching, counsel and guidance in a safe and supportive environment. I take a soulful,
intuitive approach. I will listen and help enable you to come into a deeper creative relationship
with any issues that you may be experiencing; to become more present, centred, grounded
and embodied; to have a deeper sense of yourself and your calling. We will create space
for your imagination and aspirations to be given a voice, to be seen and heard. We will
enter something of a sacred space to help find what is sacred to you.

"Mahasukha has an immense stillness in his presence." ~ Karla
We all long for connection; to ourselves, to others, to our ideals. We long to belong, to find our
place in the world, to value, and give expression to our unique gifts, to live the life we're called to
live. Perhaps the one thing that holds us back the most is low self-esteem or shame - a feeling of
not being good enough. Through bringing awareness and attention, through finding the courage
to experience our vulnerability and by cultivating kindness towards ourselves, we can loosen the
'not good enough' demon's grip, and transform the stories that can overwhelm our minds and lives.
With the sure and true footing that the breath brings, and with kindness, awareness and wisdom,
we can move forward with renewed well-being, inspiration, purpose and confidence. We can
find real connection, empowerment and belonging. We can come home to ourselves.

Evoking the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas
Each mantra has a different quality and mood, and is associated with a different divinity in
Buddhist tradition. A mantra is the sound symbol of the quality that the figure represents
eg Wisdom or Compassion. By chanting a mantra one is invoking the particular quality
that that divinity represents, and in doing so, one is cultivating that quality within oneself.
It's the feeling and vibrational quality that the mantra embodies and 'transmits' which is
of greatest importance and benefit.
