The class will be followed by Havan\, a traditional fire ceremony to bring balance and healing to nature and to ourselves. \nEvery Saturday\, in the Satyananda Yoga Tradition all over the world\, 108 rounds of the Maha Mrityunjaya Healing Mantra is chanted during the practice of Havan\, an ancient Fire Ceremony\, using mantra and fire for means of transformation. \nThis particular mantra is chanted to offer healing to people in need and to assist those who are in transition after death. We read the names of all those we know in need of healing before making offerings to the fire with those names in our hearts. \nIf you would like to add somebody to the Healing Book\, which is read out before the practice\, contact us. \nCome experience this powerful practice of healing & transformation\, followed by uplifting vibrations at our heart-opening Kirtan. \nAfterwards\, connect with like-minded guests & residents over a delicious Vegetarian Dinner at 6.30pm to conclude the evening \nEmail or call us for car pool options – 03 525 9887.\n \n  \n[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”2175″][vc_column_text]\n\nMahamrityunjaya Mantra\nOm Tryambakam Yajamahe \nSugandhim Pushtivardhanam \nUrvarukamiva Bandhanan \nMrityor Mukshiya Maamritat \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nMeaning\nOM.

Anandakumar helps to bring harmony to meditation practice\, outlining a working ‘road map’ in order to harmonise any conflict with the body-mind and find your way forward.

It’s a jumping off point for a deeper self-discovery. \nThe focus of this inspiring retreat is on Awareness in Meditation. And it will help to answer some essential questions. \n\nWhat is meditation?\nWhat is its purpose?\nHow do we practise it properly?\nHow do we maintain our meditation practice\nWhat are the benefits that meditation can accrue for us in daily life?\n\nThis course is suitable:\n• For all sincere students\, seekers\, and spiritual adventurers.\n• To develop and extend your regular meditation practice of finding the answers within the self.\n• Each meditation experience is unique with the potential to go deeper each time. \nAnd if you are interested\, read our Blog 5 Reasons to attend a Silent Meditation Retreat written by Mahima who attended this retreat with Swami Anandakumar in India. \n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row gap=”35″][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nThe Retreat Programme Includes\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]9 nights\, shared accommodation (unless camping)\, all meals and the full retreat programme. \n\n\n\nHatha Yoga classes\nGuided Meditation\nDaily Chanting\nKirtan (singing mantras to music)\nDaily Yoga Nidra (deep relaxation)\nKarma Yoga (action with meditative awareness\nFire Ceremony (Havan) and Chanting (healing sound vibration)\nPeriods of silence for reflection\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nAdditional Information\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Start Time: 10am onwards Friday 15th March – arrival/registration\nFinish Time: 11am Sunday 24th March \nComplimentary pick up: 5.45pm Thursday 14th March from Golden Bay Visitor Centre\nComplimentary drop off: 11am Sunday 24th March back to Golden Bay Visitor Centre\n \n\nDiscounts: A discounted rate of NZ$75 applies for the night before the retreat begins (14th March).\nSpecial Dietary Requirements: All meals provided are vegetarian.
