50 YEARS Celebrations
We are celebrating our Ashram’s 50th and request your good company at the Opening Night on Wednesday July 1 to sound an authentic note of Ashram. It won’t be the same without you.
5pm Havan (Fire Ceremony) West Verandah
6pm Cup of Chai, cake etc : Upstairs Dinning Hall
6.30pm-8.30 : Opening Night & the Overview of our Month and ourselves
The whole month of July our Ashram’s: programs, STRUCTURE and SPACE call us to LIVING YOGA ”Participate!” On Weekdays. A program in the Early Morning, Afternoon, and Evening, set the tone -- call us back from me in the world to the world in me – re-align, harmonize, remind, WAKE UP
The generous SPACE BETWEEN programs calls us to create a personal retreat, for? (you decide) 10 mins, 5 hours, live in for a few days? The Ashram is your retreat environment -- its marvellous LIBRARY offers contact with voices of wisdom contemporary and ancient; tea ceremony on tap in the KITCHEN refreshes our study. Enquiry, contemplation, takes us into the WEST VERANDAH’S afternoon sun or onto SCATTERED SEATS in the garden – inside -- outside -- front verandah – we converse, write, read, gaze into the middle distance; find a yoga mat, lie, sit. chat, practice, breath.
And the quiet room – Venkatesha -- the Master’s Room, calls us into the uninterrupted silence at any time -- others may be there -- we are alone -- in the Ashram’s esoteric Centre, its vital heart.
27-31 JULY there’ll be a Festival with programs back-to-back – energised and illuminated by the five days of the brilliant full moon of Guru Purnima, gratitude. Doors open 6.15am – 9pm throughout July -- make time with yourself; diarise it NOW, “Participate”.
Very best,
