Free Yoga Philosophy & Spirituality Classes

Join us for a profound journey into the timeless wisdom of Yoga and Spirituality. These classes are designed for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of themselves, the nature of life, and the spiritual principles that have guided humanity for thousands of years.

Whether you are completely new to these topics or have been on a spiritual path for many years, this course offers a practical and accessible approach to exploring some of life's most important questions. Through self-inquiry, yogic philosophy, and spiritual teachings, you will gain valuable insights that can help bring greater clarity, purpose, peace, and meaning into your daily life.

During this session you will also experience a brief 10 min meditation and breathing practice, to help you ground and connect with yourself.

In a world filled with distractions, stress, and uncertainty, these classes provide an opportunity to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the deeper dimensions of your being. Rather than asking you to adopt a particular belief system, we invite you to explore, question, and discover wisdom through your own self reflection and experience. 

Classes are offered free of charge as a service to the community. However, If you feel called to support the continuation of these offerings, a voluntary cash donation is welcome on the day.

About Cristian Trujillo

(Spiritual Journey)

Cristian Trujillo is a senior student of Sri Guru Labdhawara Kusuma (Sri Guru), a spiritual master based in Bali, Founder of the Shanti Wijaya International Jnana Buda Siwa Study Group that spans across Europe, Japan, US, South America and Australia.

Cristian is responsible for helping share Sri Guru's teachings with the wider international community. As Head Teacher and International Student Coordinator, Cristian guides international students in the study, practice, and application of Jnana Buda Siwa's spiritual knowledge and teachings.

Based in Australia, Cristian leads classes, study groups, and learning programs with students from around the world. He also coordinates student visits to Shanti Wijaya Ashram and facilitates meetings and learning opportunities with Sri Guru.

Cristian organises and leads international spiritual yoga retreats for both students and newcomers interested in Jnana Buda Siwa. These retreats provide an opportunity to learn about the teachings while offering students a deeper immersion into the practice. Many retreats include visits and extended stays at Shanti Wijaya Ashram, allowing participants direct access to Sri Guru's guidance and teachings.

In addition, Cristian regularly hosts introductory sessions for individuals interested in learning more about Jnana Buda Siwa and exploring the possibility of becoming Sri Guru's students.

Cristian is also the host of the weekly YouTube podcast, Conversations with My Guru, where he engages in meaningful discussions with Sri Guru on spiritual teachings and topics relevant to modern life.

Born in Chile, Cristian is an engineer by training who spent many years working in corporate environments as a consultant and auditor. After relocating to Australia in 2006, he followed a diverse professional path, becoming a videographer, creative director, public speaker, university lecturer, and eventually a yoga teacher.

For more than 25 years, Cristian has been deeply fascinated by the human mind and the nature of human experience. His curiosity led him to explore psychology, personal development, and ancient spiritual traditions through courses, training programs, and retreats around the world.

His journey brought him to yoga in 2010, where he discovered a new perspective on life that helped him reconnect with the faith and spiritual curiosity of his childhood. Through this path, he became a meditation teacher, Reiki practitioner, breathwork facilitator, and mindfulness coach, leading workshops, retreats, and transformational programs throughout Australia and internationally.

This path ultimately led him to meet Sri Guru, who became his primary source of spiritual guidance and knowledge. Over recent years, Cristian has undertaken an intensive and disciplined one-on-one training under Sri Guru's direct mentorship, studying the knowledge and practices of Jnana Buda Siwa in depth.

Through this close teacher-student relationship, Sri Guru has entrusted Cristian with helping make these teachings accessible to an international audience. Since then, they have worked closely together to share this knowledge with students throughout the Western world and beyond.
