Coming in the Right Way
Practitioner Ethics Online Day Training
Coming in the 'Right Way'
with Padma Khandro Victoria Sinclair
This term is used in indigenous societies in Australia and refers to a body of ethical and law/lore-based teachings known as ‘protocol’. Western spiritual practitioners seem to be nothing short of allergic to the concept of ethics and natural law. The truth is, though, that we will never become an authentic practitioner if we do not learn to honour fundamental principles.
Everything has a right time and right order (or maybe several) but the western novice often tries to bulldoze into scenarios by asking too many questions, not listening to elders first, not examining the hierarchy or organisation in a particular setting and making it all about themselves. In the practitioner world there are similar principles that create sacred and professional conduct and right now a lot of people expose their feelings of pride and entitlement by not ‘coming in the right way’.
If we understand Saturn and some principles that can be transposed into community and practitioner settings by the Lord of Time and responsibility, we can become a more mature and respected/full practitioner.
In this 1h satsang Padma will share some often overlooked fundamentals around Natural time, Indigenous Science, Dharma and Sacred order to help you become more aware and aligned. It is hoped that this will open you up to rewiring to have ethical rather than egoic tendencies at your foundation.
Part of Online Day Training 2024 on Practitioner Ethics:
The Saturnian Goat Brigade Coming Out Party
for Ethical Multidimensional Practitioners
Many people have been moving through profound initiations that have tested their authenticity and challenged superficiality on energetic, karmic, and professional levels.
We continue to meet gifted practitioners who have not yet invested in their ethical and practical development, often underestimating the depth of training and real-world experience required. Without solid foundations, progress can stall because, like Saturn teaches, this work cannot be bypassed if we want true discernment and adaptability.
This day retreat offers grounded professional and spiritual insights for those ready to deepen their practice with the Dharma Stars team and guest Katie Brockhurst.
I have particularly learned and deeply appreciate ethics as an expression, or manifestation of natural law, of how things are, and so operate as reference points to reality, mediating what’s ‘unethical’ in a way that has potential to restore a personal and shared culture based on natural law, rather than, as a practitioner, adjust one’s behaviour within colonial culture to produce ‘success’ in economic terms, or operating within legislation. I can fully see now, I’m not conscious of the ethics codes I agreed to in my yoga teacher training or shamanic trainings and need to review these.
One of the beautiful things to come out of these trainings, is to recognise one’s dharma isn’t necessarily through a human-facing therapeutic job title and role, but nevertheless necessitate an ethics context in order that encounters with others, whether non-physical beings, indigenous peoples, or those considered ‘asleep’ or ‘unconscious’ are met in equanimity, in right relation, including a more symmetrical perspective to observe established cultural and multidimensional structures, so revealing prejudices and loyalties which, are themselves, colonial perspectives.
Victoria Sinclair Padma Khandro
Padma Khandro Victoria Sinclair is a Worldwide respected consciousness innovator having facilitated community trainings and events for over 20 years. She is a trauma specialist originally from Belfast, N.Ireland and works bridging realms and modalities in innovation and unique ways for each client or group’s needs. Padma Khandro is well-known as a culture bridge-maker in her integral work with a broad range of recognised indigenous elders and teachers in S. America, Europe, Asia and Australia.
With over 25 years practitioner training experience, Padma has realised the profound benefit of volunteering, long apprenticeship periods, ethics and the slow and steady Saturnian way through experiential and theoretical teachings across tribes, lineages and professions.
As someone who believes that we should practice self-responsibility rather than creating archaic authoritarian institutions Padma is a keen advocate for working with true governing principles of Natural Law and Time to help us expand as multidimensional practitioners and Dakini Weavers. This means finding a meaningful departure from superficiality and on the other hand, samsaric institutions to become responsible and dedicated pioneers for a Golden Age. Padma has also studied and lectured media to doctorate level and worked as a researcher for the BBC.
Just like Saturn, the planet of karma, restrictions and hard-work, we can’t bypass the real work if we want to be a practitioner of utmost impeccability, discernment and adaptability.
