Online Retreats
Transformational Retreats Led by Shunyamurti
3, 5, and 7-Day Retreats Offered Online and Onsite
About Our Shunyamurti-Led Retreats
Since the founding of the Sat Yoga Ashram, these retreats have been momentous and grounding tribal gatherings as well as the centerpiece of our wisdom school curriculum. For each retreat, Shunyamurti chooses a title and theme that speak to a current topic of study into which we dive more deeply.
Originally, these retreats were offered only at the ashram; but, since the lockdowns of 2020, we have been offering them as Livestream events. Now, both our local ashram community and onsite guests can join together with our global sangha and come together to have
our hearts nourished, to receive direct guidance from Shunyamurti on the path to Self-Realization, and to raise the vibrational frequency of the morphogenic field.
These retreats are a rare opportunity to ask Shunyamurti the most precious questions from your heart, to communicate and share with the Sat Yoga community and with online retreat participants worldwide, and to deepen your meditation practice while being immersed in the energy field that is being transmitted from the ashram.
A Path to Self-Mastery
Whether you attend online or you join us onsite, every retreat led by Shunyamurti is unique and filled with new and astonishing insights.
Shunyamurti integrates to traditions of the East and West and the ancient secrets of the sages with insights of modern science, depth psychology, the meaning of the cataclysmic events currently rocking our world, and an awesome grasp of human destiny. He offers teachings of such profundity that they will accelerate your psycho-spiritual growth, transform your life and enable you to break through all barriers to realize the infinite Source of Being.
These extraordinary events will free you from the false beliefs that have kept you bound to the limited mind. Your meditations will become empowered, silent, and filled with divine light and joy. Your creative intelligence will be awakened, inspired, and united with your Eternal Self. Life will become more profoundly meaningful, more fascinating, and you will have the key to be free of suffering.

Our Virtual Curriculum
The Sat Yoga Ashram and Institute continue the highest tradition of wisdom schools that have been the core of human culture for as long as there have been historic records. But to be of service in this period of cultural dissolution and the violent rupture of normality, we have retooled our unique onsite curriculum to also be available online.

Welcome & Orientation
On the opening page of the retreat portal you receive a Video Orientation, retreat schedule, a more in depth overview of the portal, as well as an FAQ.
A Sat Yoga Retreat at Home
This retreat is a rare and precious opportunity for like-hearted seekers from all around the world to join together for satsang, sacred gatherings of truth, and sadhana, spiritual practice. We provide you with an At Home Retreat Guide, in an effort to encourage and invite you to cultivate the ambience of an ashram at home, to create your own spiritual refuge, a sanctuary in which to eliminate all distractions and to bring one-pointed clarity to the attainment of Self-realization.
Livestream Satsangs
We have a page dedicated to providing direct access and links to view and join each of the livestreamed satsangs via Youtube / Rumble. This also includes access to the early morning meditations and asana and pranayama classes live via Zoom.
Audio Player
In addition to video access, we have an audio player on to which the mp3 file for every teaching given will be posted directly after class.
Additional Materials
To further support your home practice, retreat participants have access to our Additional Sadhana page, where you can partake in pranayama and asana classes, as well as listen to the meditation music playlists from the ashram.
Forum & Dedicated Support
The participant forum is a communal space for reflection and connection. Purusha, our Members Section Editor, will be online to field any questions during this retreat and to be a bridge between your online experience and the ashram here in Costa Rica. You will be able to post questions and comments to all participants and for Shunyamurti at any time during the retreat.
Early Morning Meditations
As a sangha, we gather together daily for the sacred morning meditation sitting known as Amrit Vela—the hour of nectar, or Brahma Muhurat—the ambrosia hour just before dawn. In our At Home Retreat Guide, Shunyamurti speaks more in depth about Amrit Vela, to further help those who are not able to join via Zoom to create their own early morning meditation routine.
We are delighted to invite online participants to join the ashram community live via Zoom for our sacred pre-dawn meditation gatherings during the weekend. If Shunyamurti teaches during this time, we will upload the video to the retreat website immediately afterward.
Encounter Group via Zoom
Encounter Groups allow participants to come together as a community and discuss the impact of the teachings on their lives. Encounter Groups will be scheduled via Zoom, typically on the final day of the retreat, so participants can have the opportunity to share their retreat insights with other like-minded individuals online. These encounter groups are facilitated by senior members of the Sat Yoga Sangha.
Sample Daily Schedule
To take full advantage of this enriching and transformational program, we recommend you create a personalized daily schedule for the week. We highly encourage this to include early morning meditation, live participation in satsangs, time for reflection, and light meals and some movement or exercise. A sample Sat Yoga retreat schedule is given here as a reference, but please feel free to tailor it to your own time zone and practice.
Upcoming Shunyamurti Retreats
In-person retreats with Shunyamurti are a rite of passage available to those who are partaking in the corresponding Shakti Saturation Month program.

Testimonials
“
Many thanks to the Ashram and Shunya for facilitating this retreat. It was a wonderful and magical experience with deep knowledge and wisdom to keep going on the hero’s path. Shunya’s way of teaching–as always–is so open and well built up with lots of history and humor. I love that! What I like the most is that it truly helps in the process of realization.
~Laurens, The Netherlands
“
I was able to identify and navigate the implications of certain spiritual experiences that I have had in the past. It was surprising, and utterly invaluable. There were moments of pure cognition. It was very helpful and I really enjoy seeing other spiritual communities working so beautifully together and committed to the upliftment and unfolding of human consciousness. Very grateful.
~Lisa, Australia/India
“
This retreat was amazing. At the end of the first satsang I thought, wow, that was a whole retreat right in the first session. And it was just the beginning. It just got better. So many great teachings, wonderful meditations, and I feel very loved and supported. I am listening to the recordings every day and absorbing more knowledge. It had a big impact on me: Bliss is our natural state regardless of the circumstances!
