Retreats December 2024
at Sanatan Siddhashram - Parvathy Baul Ashram, West Bengal
Sānnidhyam
1 - 5 December 2024
(5 days)
Taught and guided exlusively by Parvathy Baul
About
We always receive this question from seekers:
"How do we, in the modern day world, conceptualise and implement spiritual practise on a day-to-day basis, so that it can become an anchor in our daily life?"
In Sānnidhyam retreat, you will spend 5 days exclusively with Parvathy Maa, who will guide us into daily spiritual practise. She will also give insights into Baul philosophy and practise.
In Parvathy Maa's 3 previous Sannidhyam retreats, we meditated, we sang, we started freeing our bodies by practising movements. We chanted Harinaam throughout the villages for an experience of sacred Madhukori, practised hatha yoga and pranayama, learned to offer bhog (blessed food) to Gopal, the Gurus and the Divine in us.
We sat together in satsang, asked our many questions, received guidance for our daily spiritual practise, and most of all, we got touched by the depth and beauty of the daily life of a Baul, living it for some days in the close proximity of Parvathy Maa.
This is the only retreat exclusively guided and taught by Parvathy Maa.
