A CENTER FOR SPIRITUAL RENEWAL
Retreats
Our Retreats
Our sister organization Yogashakti Ashram and Yoga Center sponsor all sorts of events ranging from weekend retreats with yoga and meditation, inspiration and just plain relaxation to hiking at the Sanctuary.
The retreats include programs by expert presenters, accommodations, and vegetarian meals. Participants need to bring their own bedding, towels and toiletries.
These retreats are a wonderful way to not only enjoy the serene beauty and energy of the sanctuary, but also be with like minded people. Please refer back to this page for our next program.
Doorway Into the Soul Retreat w/ Ma Mokshapriya
$250.00
Join us for our Doorway Into the Soul Retreat w/ Ma Mokshapriya - A journey into divine intimacy with St. Theresa of Avila - a guide for the spiritual progress of faith in seven stages.
St. Teresa wrote her last book, Interior Castles, five years before her death. It served as a treatise on prayer and faith journey. In it, St. Teresa introduced the idea of an interior castle, which she used as a metaphor to describe the spiritual journey that everyone must go through. In this metaphor, each room in the castle represents a spiritual dwelling. As we grow spiritually, our souls move further into this figurative castle, effectively bringing us closer to dwelling with God. St. Teresa argued that “everyone has an interior castle with them . . . even if we’re not aware of it, even if it’s obscured...”
