Ep. 20 | Full Healing of Trauma through Tantric Yoga

This episode explores a profound question: is it truly possible to fully heal trauma? Does the Western paradigm even understand what this potential is, or what it could possibly look like, to have a fully healed psyche? And are traditional spiritual practises that we have largely inherited from the East up to the task, considering the unique complexities of modern day trauma? The Lion-Faced Guru Podcast is by Amrita Mandala Sangha, founded by Amrita Baba, a pragmatic meditative spiritual path of Tantric Yoga suitable for ordinary modern day seekers, with the aim to realise complete freedom, Buddhahood, within this lifetime. See https://www.amritamandala.com to explore our main practises (offered for free) for the three fold path of awakening, healing, and great bliss. ***** While Western approaches often aim to manage symptoms or stabilise emotional distress, Tantra views trauma as a deep energetic distortion within the astral body that splits the psyche and disrupts the natural flow of life force. Modern trauma—shaped by chronic stress, disconnection, and spiritual emptiness—gives rise to complex, cumulative wounds that traditional meditation or spiritual insight alone cannot heal. Instead, Amrita Mandala offers precise energetic practices like "reverse suppression", and subtle-body mending and realignment to restore clarity, wholeness, and a reconnection with one’s innate, loving, compassionate nature. Personal experiences are shared of trauma persisting even after emptiness realisation, underscoring the need to address trauma energetically, not just physically, psychologically, or through existential insight practises. The role of refuge is emphasised—a connection to one’s Buddha nature—as vital for facing and releasing suppressed emotions. Through Amrita Kriya Yoga and related practices, healing becomes a spiritual process of softening hardened energy channels, reintegrating fragmented parts of the self, and activating our natural radiant inner presence. Rather than simply coping, this path invites a return to natural groundedness, peace, and the spontaneous light of one’s pure psyche—a state accessible to all who are willing to face the depth of their trauma with courage and care. Far from being abstract, these Tantric trauma healing practices, with their holistic and embodied approach, offer a path back to natural bliss, and profound inner peace—the radiant essence of true healing. 00:00 – Introduction: Is Full Trauma Healing Possible?
