We undertake this journey in faith. We travel in faith and we arrive in faith. Our faith is in the Spirit who dwells in our hearts and who, in silence, is loving to all. Remember the way: from the beginning to the end of each meditation, each morning and each evening, say your mantra, say your word “ma-ra-na-tha”. Do not think, do not imagine but be. Be in the presence and be in the power of the presence. – ‘In The Beginning’ by John Main


A retreat is a time of being more by doing less. It is a space created to allow ourselves to detox, de-stress and re-centre. A retreat enables us to learn something new and unlearn what we need to let go of. In an online retreat, you can feel the contemplative energy and supportive friendship of a community, even while participating in the comfort of your own home. What we recommend: Create order and harmony by designing a daily timetable that is realistic and enable you to find a peaceful structure to your day. This would help in developing selfdiscipline required to develop harmony between body, mind and spirit.
