Experiencing the Veda, Encountering the Self

A consciousness event in India
8th - 18th March, 2013

We are very excited to announce our next retreat to India for March 2013.  The village of Rishikesh is nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas on the banks of the Ganges River and has been home to great saints and Vedic masters for over 10,000 years.  We have been exploring and studying in this beautiful area for more than a decade and we’re looking forward to providing a privileged look into a region that will inspire and amaze.

This will be a truly unique event, providing a transformative experience that will impact your personal evolution for years to come.  This retreat is open both to those who already practise Vedic Meditation, and to those who wish to learn.

Dates:

Friday 8th March arrive New Delhi
Monday 18th March depart Rishikesh

Retreat Format:

Part 1: Experiencing the Veda will be an active and exciting week based in and around the holy village of Rishikesh.  Knowledge talks, daily group meditations and a special advanced meditation programme will be at the heart of a journey of enhanced personal discovery. In addition, we will take time for exploration of the local region, including witnessing sacred fire ceremonies by the banks of the Ganges, visiting temples in the Himalayan foothills, meditating in ancient caves, meeting with local swamis and masters and partaking of delicious vegetarian cuisine.

Part 2: Encountering the Self will be a week-long programme of even deeper meditations within the nourishing environment of the ashram. This is a rare opportunity to take one’s practice to an elevated level through extended immersion into subtle layers of awareness.  This creates fascinating and purifying experiences during meditation and ultimately delivers an expansion of happiness in daily life.
