As autumn invites us into a season of release, we gather for the fourth edition of Tantra Collective’s Tantric Latihan—Fall into Love. Each Latihan is a doorway into presence, surrender, and embodiment. This evening is an invitation to release agenda, expectation, and even identity—softening more fully into the field of love.
We carry forward the current and lineage awakened during our recent immersion with Laurie Handlers, holding this practice in devoted transmission and care.
Whether you are new or experienced, each journey is unique. Come as you are—solo, with a friend, or with a partner—and step into this field of aliveness and sacred unfolding.

🍂 What Latihan Is
You’re invited into the mystery that is life. Latihan (meaning “spiritual exercise”) is a form of spontaneous surrender with roots in the Indonesian Subud tradition. With blindfolds on, we set aside outward distraction and turn inward. In this simple, non-technique, rather than doing, we allow the life force to move us—in breath, sound, subtle gesture, or stillness—listening deeply and receiving what arises.
At its heart, Latihan is the sacred art of slowing down—moving at the pace of truth, guided not by will but by subtle sensation. Through surrender, we connect more deeply to ourselves, to source, and to one another. It's not about performance nor effort, but about being moved.
Evolving through Osho’s Neo-Tantra lineage and teachers like Laurie Handlers, Latihan has taken new roots in the West. Tantra Collective is honored to have introduced this practice to Philadelphia last year; Fall into Love marks our fourth gathering.
