Rest - Reflect - Rejuvenate!
We welcome you to come and join us for a meditative weekend retreat in Silence enjoying the beauty of the spring season. Experience a unique blend of meditations and teachings for beginning and experienced students alike, inspired by Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati and Joan Suval and presented by Karuna Devi and other Ashram teachers. Co-facilitated by Vani Devi (Mercedes).

Enjoy meditations, chanting, video teachings from Joan Suval’s “Readings from the Masters” (on Sat. evening, open to all), hatha yoga classes, yoga nidra practice and restorative yoga, devotional music with Deepak Kumar, delicious vegetarian meals and the beauty of Nature, all while maintaining Peaceful Silence.

Karuna Devi met her Guru Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati in 1972 and has been a lover of Sanskrit and the practice and art of meditation ever since. She gratefully acknowledges the support and encouragement she received from Joan Suval. Serving as an Ashram teacher for many years, Karuna especially enjoys sharing the teachings through chanting.
