Hey! Welcome to

An animist, nondual brew of words, art, food, and sounds cooked up by Shambhavi Sarasvati. We're all kindred here.

Hi, I’m Shambhavi

I teach in the traditions of Trika Shaivism and Dzogchen at a nonprofit called Jaya Kula. You may have read my books or articles or listened to a podcast or three. You can find out more about me here.

K108 is my creative playground. You’ll find a hugely eclectic mix here: the overtly spiritual, politics, art, dance, recipes, poetry, music, science fiction, and random silliness. Why? Because animist, nondual life is about participating and expressing oneself freely. Everything belongs, and that means you, too!

I publish every Saturday

Wake up your weekend! I’m offering essays, poems, playlists, recipes, and links to what I’m reading, seeing, and listening to.

Why be a free subscriber to Kindred 108?

  • You’ll get all the essays, poems, recipes, and cultural shares I’m offering delivered every Saturday morning right to your inbox.

Why be a paid subscriber to Kindred 108?

You’ll get all the free things plus:

  • Access to my K108 audio teachings where I riff on provocative, inspiring words from nondual, animist spiritual traditions. Check out a sample riff here.

  • You’ll be helping to deliver the K108 nourishment to other folks. That’s the best.

Why be a Foundation Supporter?

Foundation Supporters give $216 annually and participate in creating a strong foundation for K108.

You’ll get all the free things + access to my audio teachings here on K108.

  • You’ll also get a free paperback copy of every book I publish. My forthcoming book of poems is called Mother Poems and a Crack in Time. It’s currently being designed and will be available in the early spring of 2025.

Whatever kind of subscription you choose, just know that I’m really glad you’re here. Wecome aboard!

with infinite love,
Shambhavi
