SUMMARY:India Retreat 2024
DESCRIPTION:Tattwa Shuddhi Sadhana: A Journey of Elemental Purification\n\nRikhiapeeth Ashram\, India \nThe Tattwa Shuddhi course will be led by Swami Karma Karuna under the direct guidance of Swami Satyasangananda Saraswati\, the Peethadhishwari of Rikhiapeeth Ashram. \nTattwa Shuddhi is a dynamic meditation rooted in the Tantric Tradition. It is designed to cleanse and harmonize the tattwas or elements within the practitioner’s body. The process involves asanas (postures)\, pranayama (breathing exercises)\, the chakras (energy centres)\, mantras (sacred sounds)\, yantras (geometrical forms) and meditations. The course will also include theory and offer a well-balanced approach with practical applications for your daily life. \nThe word tattwa denotes the different principles or factors which comprise our embodied personality. Tattwa also signifies ‘that-ness’ and refers to the Reality which underlies our embodiment. The five fundamental elements that constitute the human body and the universe are Earth (Prithvi)\, Water (Apas)\, Fire (Agni)\, Air (Vayu)\, and Ether/Space (Akasha). \nThe word shuddhi literally means ‘purification’\, but in the context of the practice we can understand the word to mean ‘exploration’. Therefore\, Tattwa Shuddhi can be translated as a practice or exploration of the different dimensions of our existence to reveal what we are in Essence. \nRetreat participants will be introduced\, step by step\, to the different facets and stages of Tattwa Shuddhi. It is a process of exploring\, refining and expanding the idea of who we are by dissolving the imbalanced facets of the mind and unconscious conditioning which keep us locked in unhealthy patterns of being. The practice leads one to the stillness within\, bringing clarity of mind\, and receptivity; opening the practitioner up to the fullest potential. \nThe course is held in a traditional ashram environment offering integration into ashram life programs such as special rituals\, chanting and seva (selfless service). \n\nOption 1: Diwali: Festival of Lights Celebration & Tattwa Shuddhi Sadhana ~18 nights\n29th October – 15th November\n\nIncludes: Hotel in Kolkata\, Travel to the Ashram\, Diwali Celebration & Tattwa Shuddhi Program at Rikhiapeeth Ashram \nNZ $2\,995*\n\n\n\n Option 2 : Diwali\, Tattwa Shuddhi\, Ashram Immersion & Sat Chandi Mahayajna ~ 39 nights\n29th October – 7th December\n\n\nIncludes: Hotel in Kolkata\,  Travel to the Ashram\, Diwali Celebration\, Tattwa Shuddhi Program\, Sat Chandi Maha Yajna & Ashram Lifestyle Stay at Rikhiapeeth Ashram \nNZ $3\,495*\n\n\nAbout Diwali – The Festival of Light\n\n\n\n\nThis auspicious time of year\, considered to be the Hindu New Year\, symbolizes the spiritual victory of light over darkness\, good over evil\, and knowledge over ignorance. Associated with Lakshmi\, the Goddess of Abundance & Prosperity\, Diwali is a time for sharing\, giving\,and savoring the sweetness of life. Havan and Pooja are performed to open our energy to the universal grace of giving and receiving with equanimity\, to become selfless in our actions\, and to dedicate our lives to the benefit of all. On the eve of Diwali the Ashram becomes radiant with the light of thousands of candles representing how our own inner light becomes magnified when in the company of other luminous souls.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Sat Chandi Mahayajna – Celebrating God as the Mother \n\nGoddess Chandi\, a form of Durga\, is said to be the remover of negativity from the world. She represents the universe itself. This energy is invokedto dispel the negative forces that limit and contract us so that we may be fully open to the experience of abundance. This 5 day yajna celebration is dedicated to the Cosmic energy\, Shakti\, and holds the greatest significance in terms of the history and tradition of Rikhiapeeth. Started in 1995\, the Sat Chandi Mahayajna became a means of reaching out to countless families from the surrounding villages; to spread the blessings of peace\, plenty and prosperity in each home and family. Participating in the distribution prasad to thousands of villagers over the 5 days is the highlight of this festival. \n\n\n\n“Yajnas confer peace\, plenty and prosperity through the medium of divine energy that is invoked by mantra and ritual… It is not asana or pranayama or Dhyana…this is yajna\, where the mind\, intellect and intelligence have no role to play.  In this situation child-like innocence and spontaneity pay higher dividends than intellect.” Swami Satsangi \n\n\n\n\n\n About Ashram Life\n\n\n\nIntegrate the experience of Tattwa Shuddhi by immersing yourself in the daily activities of the ashram\, by practicing Karma Yoga / Seva alongside the ashram residents. The basis of ashram life is selfless service. The ashram lifestyle reveals to us how to become free from the dictates of the mind and regain control over our life. In today’s day and age this has become most relevant\, as the ashram lifestyle makes us aware of our immense potential and enables us to give that a constructive direction. We learn to direct and expand the mind by adopting the spirit of selfless service\, which in turn blossoms in our life as creativity and excellence in thought\, word\, and deed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nWe are offering 4 online Q & A & practice sessions & about our India Retreat\, check out sessions here [ONLINE] India Q&A\,  [ONLINE] Chakras & Tattwas: Hatha Yoga and Meditation Masterclass\, [ONLINE] Practice\, Presentation & India Q&A  and [ONLINE] Purification through the Chakras & Tattwas \n$950 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT is due at the time of booking in order to secure your space.\nEARLY BIRD: 10% Discount: Ends 25th July 2024 use code INDIA10\n\n \n\nBookings Close & Payment in Full due: 31st August 2024\n \nFrom 1st October ALL PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE\nCancellations received after 31st August and before 1st October 2024 are refunded 50%\nof full payment minus the deposit.\n \nA limited number of Scholarships are available.

SUMMARY:Krishna Janmashtami Celebrations & Community Working Bee
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nAn invitation to our local Sangha to join us in celebrating Krishna’s birthday and come together for a community working bee to support Anahata Yoga Retreat before Swami Karma Karuna goes to India\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Janmashtami celebrates the birth of Lord Krishna. Ashtami is a day of divine connection & personal transformation. It is significant day in India as it indicates a perfect balance between the seen and the unseen aspects of reality – the visible material world and the invisible spiritual realm. \nKrishna’s birth on Ashtami signifies his mastery of both the spiritual and material worlds. He is a great teacher and a spiritual inspiration as well as the consummate politician. On one hand\, he is Yogeshwara (the Lord of Yoga – the state which every yogi aspires)\, while on the other\, he is a mischievous thief.  The most authentic way to celebrate Janmashtami is to know that you have to play a dual role – of being a responsible human being on the planet\, and at the same time to realize that you are above all events. \nCome join us for a day of seva\, selfless service to tidy up the grounds of Anahata to prepare for Spring\,  followed by a gentle Hatha Yoga Class\, Yoga Nidra\, Havan & Kirtan and shared potluck dinner. Optional wood-fired sauna available after dinner. \nIf you are unable to join us physically\, there is an option to join us ONLINE for Hatha Yoga Class\, Yoga Nidra & Havan by donation. \n\n\n\n\n\nAll welcome for some or part of the schedule. \n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nThe Schedule\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Working Bee \n\n09:00am – 12:30pm Working bee projects (gardening\, wood stacking\, cleaning\, wastewater system tasks\, etc.)\n12:30pm – 1:30pm Shared lunch (potluck style or bring your own)\n1:30pm – 3:30pm Working bee projects continue\n\nYoga Buffet \n\n3:30pm – 5:00pm Gentle Hatha Yoga Class & Yoga Nidra (ONLINE option available)\n5:00pm – 7:00pm Havan Fire Ceremony & Kirtan (ONLINE option available)\n7:00pm – 8:30pm Shared Dinner followed by Sauna\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nAdditional Information\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n\n\nEnergy Exchange \n\n\nFull Yoga Buffet $25 \nHavan & Kirtan by Donation \nPlease email us at yoga@anahata-retreat.org.nz to let us know you are coming.

This dynamic sadhana\, deeply rooted in the Tantric Tradition\, is designed to purify and harmonize the tattwas or elements within your being. By weaving together the transformative powers of Tattwa Shuddhi and Chakra Sadhana\, you will embark on an enlightening journey of self-discovery and balance.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Explore the Core of Your Being: \nA holistic approach integrates asanas (postures)\, pranayama (breathing techniques)\, chakras (energy centers)\, mantras (sacred vibrations)\, yantras (geometric forms)\, and meditation\, coupled with enriching theoretical insights. Together\, these practices offer a comprehensive pathway to cleanse your inner elements and unlock practical applications for vibrant daily living.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Unveiling Your Essence: \nThe retreat invites you to explore and refine the elements within. The five fundamental tattwas—Earth (Prithvi)\, Water (Apas)\, Fire (Agni)\, Air (Vayu)\, and Ether/Space (Akasha)—are harmonized with the profound energy work of the chakras. ‘Tattwa’ embodies the various principles shaping our existence\, while ‘Shuddhi’ signifies a profound purification\, an exploration into revealing our true Essence.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Journey Through the Chakras: \nIncorporating Chakra Sadhana\, participants will deepen their understanding of the energy centers\, learning how to balance\, activate\, and align them with the elements. This integration cultivates a state of inner stillness\, mental clarity\, and heightened receptivity\, empowering you to tap into your fullest potential.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]A Traditional Ashram Experience: \nHeld within the nurturing ambience of a traditional ashram\, the retreat offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in ashram life\, participating in special rituals\, chanting\, and seva (selfless service). This enriching environment fosters a sense of community and supports your transformational journey.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Diwali – The Festival of Light: \nDiwali\, celebrating the Hindu New Year\, symbolizes the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. Honoring Lakshmi\, the Goddess of Abundance\, this festival is a time of sharing\, giving\, and celebrating life’s sweetness. Through Havan and Pooja\, we embrace the grace of giving and receiving\, fostering selflessness and dedicating our actions to the greater good. \nOn Diwali eve\, our Ashram glows with thousands of candles\, symbolizing how our inner light shines brighter within a supportive community. Join us in celebrating Diwali\, where we unite to amplify our inner light and spread joy and hope.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tattwa Shuddhi Chakra Sadhana Retreat\, Diwali & Ashram Life \n USD$1780 All inclusive of food\, accommodation\, travel and courses within India [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nOPTION 2: Includes all aspects of Option 1 PLUS Bihar School of Yoga Immersion\n29th September – 31st October 2025 (32 Nights)[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n\nWe will travel together to Munger to join the Hatha Yoga-Karma Yoga Training and delve into ashram life in an authentic ashram. After settling into ashram life\, we join the Hatha Yoga-Karma Yoga course from the 3rd to 11th October 2025 and after completing the course\, spend some time integrating the experiences with an ashram life stay. \n  \nExperience Transformative Yoga at the Bihar School of Yoga: \nJoin us at the esteemed Bihar School of Yoga under the guidance of Swami Niranjananda for an enriching journey where tradition meets transformation. This immersive experience delves into the Yoga Chakra\, or the Wheel of Yoga\, seamlessly integrating the powerful practices of Hatha Yoga and Karma Yoga. \n  \nHatha & Karma Yoga: A Harmonious Union \nIn this program\, Hatha Yoga serves as the practice-oriented spoke of the wheel\, offering physical postures\, pranayama\, mudra and bandha that leads to profound inner awareness. This newfound understanding and experience are then channeled through Karma Yoga\, inviting participants to express this wisdom in thought\, word\, and action throughout the day. \n  \nHolistic Purification & Ashram Lifestyle: \nTogether\, these two branches focus on purifying the body\, mind\, and self\, fostering a balanced and harmonious existence. Embrace the authentic Ashram Lifestyle\, which includes seva (selfless service)\, mantra meditation\, and communal living\, as you engage with like-minded souls in a nurturing environment. \n  \nCome be part of this unique opportunity to align your inner and outer worlds\, gain deeper insights into your practice\, and live yoga in every moment. \nThe official Anahata program ends on the 31st of October 2025.  We will be happy to help facilitate the below opportunities and it is likely that one of the retreat leaders will be present over the Yajna timeframe. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Hatha Yoga-Karma Yoga Training\, Tattwa Shuddhi Chakra Sadhana\, Diwali & Ashram Life at Bihar School of Yoga and Rikhia Peeth \n USD $2\,720 All inclusive of food\, accommodation\, travel to and between the ashrams and courses within India\n \nBOOKINGS CLOSE 31st May 2025 for this option[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nADD ONS by donation\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Ashram Life 1 – 20th November 2025\nIntegrate the experience of Tattwa Shuddhi and Chakra Sadhana by immersing yourself in the daily activities of the ashram\, by practicing Karma Yoga / Seva alongside the ashram residents. The basis of ashram life is selfless service. The ashram lifestyle reveals to us how to become free from the dictates of the mind and regain control over our life. In today’s day and age this has become most relevant\, as the ashram lifestyle makes us aware of our immense potential and enables us to give that a constructive direction. We learn to direct and expand the mind by adopting the spirit of selfless service\, which in turn blossoms in our life as creativity and excellence in thought\, word\, and deed. \n“Yajnas confer peace\, plenty and prosperity through the medium of divine energy that is invoked by mantra and ritual… It is not asana or pranayama or Dhyana…this is yajna\, where the mind\, intellect and intelligence have no role to play.  In this situation child-like innocence and spontaneity pay higher dividends than intellect.” Swami Satsangi \nImmerse in sacred celebrations at Rikhia Peeth Ashram[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]21 – 25th November 2025 Sat Chandi Mahayajna:  \nThis is a grand yajna celebrating the Divine Mother in her many forms.
