Rite Of Passage for Men by Temple Of Radiance, 

A Tantric Men’s Training in Portugal

A 6-Day Journey Into Power, Purpose, and Sacred Union

Men, this is your call.

In the powerful lands of Portugal, you are invited to step into a transformational experience designed to awaken your true power and prepare you to meet the feminine in her full radiance. Over six immersive days, you will journey into the depths of your masculinity, align with your purpose, and prepare to enter their Sacred Temple, where you will meet women who have been training as Temple Priestesses in the Initiatress Retreat held by Amanda Biccum and Arja Hendrikx.

The women's retreat is being held on the same land but we will not meet them until the last night. You can find out more about the woment training here

This is more than a training, it’s an initiation. A rare opportunity to reclaim the ancient rites of passage that connect the masculine and feminine in devotion, reverence, and sacred union.

Event Details

Dates: 21-26 September 2025
Location: Portugal, 30 Mins from Lisbon (Exact location provided upon application)

Why This Training?

The world is calling for men who are ready to embody a new level of presence, depth, and authenticity. This is your opportunity to:

• Deepen your connection to your authentic masculine power.
• Prepare to hold space for the feminine in her most sacred and vulnerable expression.
• Join a brotherhood of men committed to growth, truth, and transformation.

This is not a training for beginners or the curious. It is for men already walking the path of personal growth, tantra, or embodiment work, who are ready to take their journey deeper.

Will you answer the call?

What Awaits You

The first four days are designed to ground you in your power, refine your presence, and prepare you to meet the feminine. Working with facilitator Steve Shiva and a group of like-minded men, you will:

• Integrate your shadow, transforming your hidden fears and wounds into sources of strength and clarity.
• Sharpen your presence to hold space with integrity, strength, and love.
• Expand your emotional and energetic resilience, preparing to meet the feminine in her fullest expression.
• Engage in rituals, embodiment practices, and attunement exercises to align your mind, heart, and body with the sacred masculine.

On the final day, you will journey to the women, and step into their Sacred Temple, where the women, trained as Temple Priestesses, will lead you into rituals that celebrate the union of masculine and feminine energies.

The Culmination: The Sacred Temple Ritual

The final day will extend into the night, as you enter the temple, a space charged with feminine energy, beauty, and devotion. Here, you will:

• Witness and honour the feminine in her raw, unfiltered expression.
• Offer your presence and devotion as a gift, creating a container of safety and reverence.
• Experience the profound union of the masculine and feminine, as the divine energies within both are brought into harmony.

This is not a performance or a test, it’s a sacred act of surrender, presence, and connection. The temple experience will ripple into every area of your life, transforming how you relate to yourself, the feminine, and the world.

Are you ready to step into this sacred space?

Why This Matters

In ancient traditions, men’s rites of passage included the guidance of the feminine. The Erotic High Priestesses initiated men into the sacred arts of devotion, eros, and reverence for the feminine. These practices aligned a man’s mind, heart, and body, helping him embody his highest self. This training offers you the opportunity to reclaim these lost traditions and align with your true masculine power.

This is your chance to:

• Heal old stories and wounds that keep you disconnected from your power.
• Align your masculinity with integrity, creating deeper relationships and connections.
• Step into a sacred container where the feminine calls you to rise into your fullest expression.

What’s Expected of You?

This training requires your full commitment. You are expected to:

• Show up with everything you have, with truth, vulnerability and integrity.
• Honour the boundaries and consent of everyone in the space.
• Be present in a devotional space, ready to receive and witness the feminine in her power.

Why You Must Act Now

This is a sacred, once-in-a-lifetime experience. The opportunity to step into a temple guided by women devoted to the sacred arts of eros and initiation. Spaces are limited to 20 men, ensuring an intimate and powerful container for transformation.

Meet your Facilitator

Steve Shiva

BSc (Hons) Psychology, GMBPsS
Masculine Embodiment and Truth-Based Relating© Coach

Steve Shiva is a man who is on a lifelong journey to embody the sacred masculine. A coach, leader, and father of two, he is the founder of multiple organizations devoted to human transformation through psychological, sexual, and embodiment practices. His work is a call to men who are ready to step into their power, confront their shadows, and live in alignment with their truth.

For over 14 years, Steve has walked the transformative path of Tantra, a practice that not only invites self-awareness but demands it. First introduced to its teachings at the OSHO International Resort in Pune, India, he discovered a way of living that honours the full spectrum of human experience: the divine and the raw, the light and the shadow. This holistic understanding of the miracle of union of feminine radiance and masculine power and purpose forms the foundation of his work.

Steve Shiva believes that true masculine power is not about domination or control, it’s about integration. A man who has faced his shadow, embraced his vulnerability, and found his edge is a man who can be trusted, not just by others, but by himself. His teachings are an initiation into this trust: guiding men into their full embodiment so they can show up in the world with presence, purpose, and unwavering strength

Preparing to Meet the Feminine

Steve’s partnership with Amanda Biccum, a powerful tantrik priestess and the facilitator of the Women’s Initiatress Training, exemplifies what it means to meet the feminine in her full power. Amanda embodies the feminine essence, wild, devotional, sacred, and untamed. To hold space for a woman of this caliber requires a man who has done the work.

The feminine will call the masculine to rise. She will reflect his shadows, challenge his edges, and demand his presence. A man who hasn’t faced himself will falter under this pressure. But a man who is walking his path, confronting his fears, and integrating his shadow will not only hold her power but rise through the challenge she represents.

Integration: Shadow, Edge, and Power

Steve Shiva`s work is always designed to take men to their edges, and this Rite Of Passage is no different, challenging men to:

• Integrate their shadows, turning fear, shame, and insecurity into sources of strength.
• Expand their capacity to hold more intensity, love, and power.
• Step into their truth, aligning their actions with their deepest values and purpose.

This work is not comfortable, and it is not easy. But it is the only way to embody the sacred masculine and fully meet the feminine.

The Sacred Masculine: Becoming the Divine

Masculine power is not about perfection, it’s about presence. A man who can own every part of himself, from his animal, to his human, to his divinity embodies the sacred masculine. He becomes a man who can hold the feminine with unwavering reverence, strength, and devotion, creating a space where she can surrender fully.

This is the work: to face yourself, to rise into your power, and to become the man who can meet the feminine, the world, and yourself in truth.

Your Invitation: Step Into the Rite of Passage

Steve Shiva is calling men who are ready to step into this sacred initiation. This is not for the faint-hearted, it is for those who are prepared to face their shadows, challenge their edges, and rise into their full potential.

This is your chance to reclaim your power and embody the man you were born to be. A man who can meet a woman in her full radiance. A man who can hold himself and the world with integrity, strength, and heart.

Are You Ready?

This Rites of Passage Training is unlike anything we’ve offered before. For the first time, it will run alongside the Initiatress Training for Women, a unique opportunity for transformation and connection.

Here’s why it’s so special:

• Two Parallel Journeys: While you embody your masculine power, the women will be guided into the  art of the initiatress. Though you won’t cross paths during the week, both groups will come together in a powerful closing union ceremony to celebrate the divine connection between masculine and feminine.

• Your Partner Can Join, Too: This is a rare opportunity for both you and your partner to grow. While you’re transforming, they’ll be on their own path, deepening into presence, purpose, and conscious femininity. Or perhaps you’ll meet her there, a woman ready to rise and match your depth in every way.

The Venue

Being on such a charged land will contribute to the power of your transformation.
