Though we live in extraordinarily challenging times, all that we need to live in our present circumstances with grace, dignity, and intelligence is already within us because God dwells in the depths of our souls. In the midst of our conflict, confusion, and uncertainty, God invites us to uncover those hidden treasures buried within the deepest recesses of the human spirit: the peace that surpasses understanding, heavenly wisdom to guide us in all of our affairs, strength and resiliency to overcome all obstacles, enlightened hope to sustain us through all of life’s tests, and so much more. Meditative silence is our path, and we walk this path together.
To explore and experience our hidden treasure, you are warmly invited to join us for a one day virtual retreat. We will use Zoom as our platform. Isha Das will serve as our retreat director throughout the day, and Swami Nirvanananda will join us one or more times from Italy to offer us his inspiring music. Knowing that Isha Das may be inspired to make adjustments in the moment, our tentative schedule for the day is this:
9 -10 am: Introduction, guided meditation, reflection questions offered
10 -11 am: Offline for contemplation, journaling, and written reflection
11 -12 pm: Online meditation and teaching
12 -1 pm: Offline break for lunch, contemplation, and written reflecting
1 – 2 pm: Online time for questions, teaching and meditation
2 – 3 pm: Online contemplation, reflecting, and journaling
3 – 4 pm: Meditation, time for group sharing, and closing
We are very excited about our first venture into this new format. Come experience something new with us!
