"Always remember that seclusion is the price of greatness. In this tremendously busy life, unless you are by yourself, you can never succeed. Never, never, never. Walk in silence; go quietly; develop spiritually. We should not allow noise and sensory activities to ruin the ladder of our attention, because we are listening for the footsteps of God to come into our Temple.” 

– Paramhansa Yogananda

Take a day out of your busy life to be completely in silence, meditating longer, reflecting on your life, and focusing on your thoughts, ideas, creativity, and feelings—tapping into the part of you that gets lost in everyday busyness and routine.

The serene, uplifting vibration of the ashram and the group magnetism will take each of us deeper into communion with God in silence. 

Please register in advance.

Timetable (Tentative)

The retreat officially starts with an opening circle on Saturday morning, at 10:00 am, and we will observe silence during the day between an opening circle and the closing circle. If you are a Kriyaban, you can start your day by joining our weekly Guided Kriyaban Meditation at the centre from 7:10 – 9:30 am.

“Silent Time” and “Reflection Time” are the time periods when you can spend in solitude. You can do the suggested activities (we will share them with you before each period) or whatever you feel to do. If spending a full day is difficult for you, you can attend half of the retreat and leave after lunch. 

What to bring:

• A water bottle, a cap/hat, sunscreen as we will spend about 2 hours outdoor (in the shade)
  
• Your meditation gear (e.g. Aum board, asana, ear plug, etc.) – Meditation cushions and yoga mats are available
• A water bottle
• Your journal (if you have one), or notebook and a pen
• A spiritual book, if you plan to read during the day.
