About the event

"When the lips are silent, the Heart has a hundred tounges." - Rumi

During this 5 day Silent Hridaya Meditation retreat we will gradually explore the foundations of meditation practice, discovering the joy of Stillness and the intimacy of the Heart.

We will combine silent meditation sessions with Hridaya Hatha Yoga practice, teachings on meditation techniques and talks on inspiring spiritual topics, which are meant to support and bring insights into the meditation practice.

In this retreat we will mainly explore the teachings of Self Inquiry, as presented by Sri Ramana Maharsi. Embarking in the quest for the Self, the fundamental question, “Who am I?” Going beyond identifications, preconceived ideas, allowing the answer to be revealed in the Silence of the Heart.

Additionally, we will unique integration of different spiritual traditions such as Advaita Vedanta (non-duality), Yoga, Sufism, Tantra, Kashmir Shaivism, or Buddhism. All these precious ancient teachings are pointing towards the essence of our being, the essence of all that is.

During this retreat, in silence and introspection, resting in the present moment, we will create favorable conditions to open ourselves to the Spiritual Heart, recognize the depth of who we are. No previous meditation or yoga experience is necessary as this retreat is designed for beginner and advanced meditators alike.

The retreat will take place at the Monte Mariposa Retreat center in South Portugal (https://montemariposa.net/). "The purpose of Monte Mariposa is to deepen into the source and expression of who we truly are and we have here the support of what is essential in nature itself."

The profits of this silent meditation retreat will be used for the creation of “Cave of the Heart”, our dreamed small silent retreat center in south Portugal (see future updates of our website for more information).
