4-day Hridaya Retreat for Revelation of the Spiritual Heart
Location: Lendrick Lodge Lendrick Lodge, Brig O' Turk, Callander, A821, Scotland, FK17 8HR - http://www.lendricklodge.com. This facility is about an hour out of Glasgow in the beautiful Trossachs, up near Callander in beautiful countryside. (FK17 8HR). We have the lodge to ourselves, so it will be calm and quiet. This is a fantastic venue, clean and warm with wonderful healthy veggie food and a great custom made meditation room and a spacious, light yoga room. If you need help with transport, please let me know and we can arrange lifts up from Glasgow.
Content: This will be a meditation retreat weekend, mostly in silence. It is a very practical retreat where we shall experience stillness first hand through quiet, meditation, Yoga, and other techniques. Sahajananda will gently guide and support us each step of the way deeper into ourselves explaining beautifully and clearly deep, transformational spiritual concepts that have eluded us before. This retreat is for everyone, experienced meditators will enjoy being supported by this supreme level of teacher and will see how much of an impact to their practice it can have. Also it is a very supportive space for complete beginners, and you will have an excellent start to your meditation career, learning techniques that you can use for the rest of your life. Sahajananda has taken me from complete novice to present day regular practitioner and I have always felt benefited by time spent with him. We shall be using the Hridaya meditation technique, which is of the form of Self-Inquiry, in the tradition of Ramana Maharishi, using especially the focus on the Heart. Please see his website for more information: http://www.hridaya-yoga.com
Prices: You will have accommodation for the 3 nights, plus all meals from Thursday lunch to Sunday lunch, and all teachings included. The cost is dependent on which kind of room you would like (the single and twin rooms are limited, if you would like one, please let me know as soon as possible to avoid disappointment).
Single - £325
Twin - £285 each (please let me know who would be sharing)
Dorm Room - £255 (these are rooms of 3 or 4 people – if you are coming in a group and wish to be together please let me know)
All rooms share bathrooms. We are the only event in the Lodge that weekend so anyone you share with will be on the course with us. If you would like to have special food arrangements (vegan or gluten free) it is also an extra charge, please let me know if this is the case.
(Concession rates - I am afraid that we are making the course as cheap as possible and the prices above are just covering costs and so I am not able to offer a concession rate lower than the £255 Dorm. If anyone would really like to come and cannot afford it, please contact me and we can see what we can arrange.)
I am happy to accept payment in chunks if you feel that it would be easier for you to cover, let me know and we can arrange it.
Booking on: Please book on now by emailing me and letting me know:
1. What kind of room you would like
2. Any food specifications (vegan or gluten free only with surplus charge) beyond vegetarian
3. If you need transport
4. Please send a deposit of £100 by cheque or direct bank transfer to me to secure your place
