"To really inquire, to open the mind and discover the truth of who you are, you need to retreat. It is essential. It can take just one instant, but we have this weekend. What a privilege that we have a whole weekend to retreat from our work, our relationships, our children, our world, our names, our personal histories, our genders; from anything that is accompanied by concepts and judgments, that can be worked on or changed, fixed or escaped from. In this weekend it can all be left behind, so that your mind can open to discover what is always here, what is the truth of who I am." –Gangaji

Weekends are a potent environment for self-discovery with Gangaji. Over a two day period, we willingly ask our deepest questions and commit to facing what arises, whatever that may be. Weekends offer support for stopping any story you may be telling to realize what is always present before, during and after any story. Each full weekend day consists of two meetings with Gangaji, and may also have a video program.
Chairs will be provided in the meeting hall, but you are welcome to bring a cushion or backjack for sitting on the floor.
