The Retreat:

Auroville is an experimental community in the state of Tamil Nadu, India.

 

Anyone with idealistic ideas will be excited to visit ‘the City of Dawn’. It’s an international community and their purpose is to realise human unity in diversity. The inhabitants are dedicated to sustainable living, peace, harmony and spirituality. 

​

Conscious eating and ayurvedic practices has long been practiced by so many who have come before us who have used it as a tool to access their deeper selves, to cleanse the body and purify the mind. This has a strong effect on us as we begin to open to a deeper connection within and without. The result is that we start looking at our lives and where we are with a fresh and clear vision. 

​

With this clarity it becomes easier to lead and direct our lives fluently and aligned to our Dahrma.

​

Our deeper selves are accessed, channelled through the practice of yoga, meditation, meditating in the matrimandir temple, e-bicycle ride, emotional release, ayurvedic workshop and experiencing long held reverence for the ancient practices in this place of high energy.​​

Why "a Pilgrimage in India"?

It is a sacred calling to step beyond the ordinary and immerse yourself in a deeply transformative spiritual experience. A retreat in India takes you to powerful energetic sites where devotion, wisdom and divine presence have been cultivated for centuries.

 

In the spiritual traditions of India, traveling to sacred places is a way to purify the mind, awaken inner devotion, and receive blessings that accelerate one’s personal and spiritual growth. Temples and ashrams hold a vibrational energy that can shift consciousness and open the heart in profound ways.

 

Through this retreat, we are walking the path of devotion and wisdom, absorbing the essence of yoga, ayurveda, meditation and ritual in their most authentic form. It is an opportunity to step away from distractions, reconnect with your true self, and experience the divine in a living, tangible way.

 

Are you ready to step beyond the familiar and experience the divine in a way that transforms your heart, mind, and soul?
