Spanda is a Sanskrit word derived from the root word spadi, which means “to move a little". It is usually translated to mean “movement” “motion” or “vibration.” Spanda is regarded as being the pulsing, radiating energy that comes from the absolute or Supreme Consciousness (Brahman). Spanda is a pulsation of energy. Our universe has 2 concurrent energies: contraction and expansion. This pulsation may be seen and felt in all life.

The Subtle Presence - A study and practice course on meditation and an evening of yoga music with Jack Harrison
From Andrea
'Meditation is one of the fundamental yoga practices but often the least easy to study and perform. Yet, in everyday life, there are times when we are present in a simple and accessible way. Meditation teaches us to capture and expand these brief moments, increasing inner body attention and revealing what is unnecessary. Personally, the practice has led me to recognize the character inclinations and patterns that I tend to reproduce as defence mechanisms or when I want to reach an objective. But for me, meditation has been much more. It has helped me find a quieter, simpler "me” beyond identifications or aspirations. A silent presence that always welcomes me without any judgment.
This meditation course is designed to guide students into building a meditative practice that is regular and easy to perform at home, studying the different levels of the process and addressing difficulties as they arise during the practice.’
