Swami Dayamritananda Puri and Swamini Ambikamrita Prana will lead a silent retreat on Friday, April 3rd through Sunday, April 5th. The retreat will include a public program on Saturday, starting at 5:30 pm, that will be free to attend and open to everyone.
Silent retreats with Amma’s senior disciples offer the opportunity to deepen our inner connection with Amma and experience the deep inner peace and joy that is our true nature. Archana chanting, yoga and meditation, satsang (spiritual discourse), bhajans (devotional singing), question and answer sessions, nature walks, and more will be included in the retreat.
