Live and Study at the Ashram!
Shakti Saturation Intensive
A 4-Week Onsite Ashram Program with Shunyamurti and the Sat Yoga Sangha
A Life-Changing Journey into the Self
The Shakti Saturation program is a transformational intensive specially designed to serve our growing global community.
This onsite program is open to all who feel in alignment with the Sat Yoga teachings, and who wish to immerse themselves in the ashram energy field and go deeper into the silence of the Self.
Whether you are joining us for one month or exploring the possibility of extended and long-term stays, this program will serve as an introduction to life at the Ashram. Your days will be filled with wisdom school studies, meditation, inner work and transformational sessions, and immersion in community life.
This compact course offers a curriculum of classes and events that will enable you to safely and quickly release the habitual patterns of thought and emotion that obscure your Real Self.
This 4-Week Ashram Intensive includes:
- Advanced seminar/retreat led by Shunyamurti (3, 5 or 7 days)
- Accommodations in our charming cabins
- Three nutritious and delicious, ovo-lacto vegetarian or vegan meals per day, with many ingredients from our organic gardens
- Morning and evening meditations with the Sangha
- Small group classes exploring our core curriculum of timeless wisdom
- Artistic expression classes
- Satsangs and dialogue with Shunyamurti
- Community Seva (Karma Yoga)
- Yoga Asana Practice weekly
- Optional Atmanology sessions
- Time for walks, birdwatching, and contemplation in the beautiful natural setting of the ashram.
The Great Escape
Since reality is seen through the delusional projections of the ego—which is the cause of suffering and sin—the only escape from one’s hell realm is to bring the attention inward, deeper within than the ego mind can reach. There you will discover the luminous Presence of the God-Self—and the portal to eternal freedom.
Wisdom Encounter
September 3 – 16, 2024 ~ $2,200
If you can only come for two weeks, and you want an optimal spiritual facelift—or if you have been to another retreat here and just need a quick tune-up—this encounter format carries the punch you need to break through any last resistances to Self-realization. We will transmit, through our secret teachings that are rarely offered, the key to your inner connection to the energy that activates your Wisdom Body, and enables all anxiety to vanish, and the whole structure of the ego fiction to drop away forever.
This Sacred Journey Functions on Three Levels:
1
Relaxation, Astonishment, and Joy
in the Solitude of Quarantine
Breathing the pure air and feeling the purity of the energy field will exhilarate and liberate your energies! You may feel more vibrantly alive than ever! As you recharge energetically, you will also experience a subtle paradigm shift underway, into a deeper perception of reality, filled with more options and potentialities than you had ever imagined!
2
Direct Transmission of Truth, Light, and Power
3, 5, and 7-day retreats led by Shunyamurti
An advanced seminar/retreat led by Shunyamurti forms the core of the program. Offering direct transmission of shakti and gyana, connecting you with the Self, this series of gatherings will also give you the opportunity to ask your own burning questions and gain an integrated understanding of this world and the transcendent reality as a whole. You will gain peace of mind and renewed faith in God’s presence, goodness, and plan for restoring Heaven on Earth.
3
The Deconstruction of Ego and the Rise of Kundalini
Take a quantum leap in your self-understanding through yogic wisdom, meditation and joyful participation in our ashram community.
In the days following the seminar, you will undergo a rigorous set of classes designed to uncover and release your shadow, free yourself from the chains of the ego’s limitations, and rise into the sublime heights of illumined and ecstatic Consciousness! This is your natural state—your Buddha Nature—and you will discover that you can live always in joy and wisdom, freedom from fear, and with astounding creative intelligence! So, leave behind your obsolete attitudes and fly into a new life of Liberation! You are invited to all our early morning meditations, asana and pranayama workshops, evening tutorials and study groups, community service, small encounter groups, and special Satsangs led by Shunyamurti.
The Joy of Pure Life
Live for a Month as a True Sannyasi
Our spiritual community fulfils the traditional Costa Rican greeting of “Pura Vida!” by offering an immersion in our pure lifestyle of natural joy.
You will discover what it is like to live in community and participate in all our activities, including three daily meditation sittings, evening classes, book groups, occasional movie nights, cultural events, and all-round service to the sangha. You will also receive special retreatant classes. Our hope is that you will be fully reinvigorated and clear about the next steps on your path.
