Yoga Sadhana Mornings
Chapter 3: Returning to the Mat

July 16–22, 2025

Hosted by ASR Yoga & Meditation Instructors
 

The mat is calling again. Back by popular demand, and more flexible than ever, the diverse team of ASR yoga and meditation instructors will guide us in practice to silence the mind.

This retreat invites us to reconnect with Amma’s loving presence asana by asana, breath by breath and mantra by mantra.

Yoga Sadhana Mornings strengthens our early routine, beginning the day with prayer and our unique, ‘yoga for a silent mind’ asana practice. We then sit together in quiet meditation to nurture awareness and stillness no matter where life leads us throughout the rest of the day.

Join us as, together, we deepen our practice and support our next generation of instructors.

Retreat Features: 

  • Prayer
  • Yoga
  • Meditation
  • Translation available in French, Spanish and German.

Advaita VI Retreat
Mandukya Upanishad Gaudapada’s Kārikā – Chapter 2 From Illusion to Reality

July 30-August 04, 2025

w/ Swami Atmananda Puri

This retreat invites us to step back from conditioned patterns so we can experience the clarity that sacred silence brings. Ultimately, it is only in that stillness that we can deeply listen, reflect, and rest in our true nature. Guided by Swami Atmananda Puri, we will gently turn our attention from illusion toward a living experience of our true reality. Each morning begins with clear, accessible teachings, followed by meditation. Each afternoon, the teachings are given space to naturally settle and deepen through reflection, walking meditation, or personal inquiry. Join us as we bathe in the light of Vedanta and Amma’s living wisdom, turning inward to uncover what is real and allowing the mind space to find its natural peace. Retreat Features:

  • Satsangs on Gaudapada’s Kārikā, Chapter 2
  • Meditation
  • Walking Meditation
  • Q&A Sessions
  • Reflection and Personal Inquiry
  • Translation available in French, Spanish and German.

Videos Available for 14 Days

10-Day ‘10th Anniversary’ Silent Retreat
Ten Years of Silence, Ten Years of Grace

August 8-18, 2025

w/ Narendra, Rasya, Vinod and Br. Mitramrita Chaitanya

Ten years ago this August, Amrita Silent Retreats began on a small rooftop by the ocean, where Amma first heard the sacred mantras MA and OM.

From those humble beginnings, we were blessed to find our home in the Shanti Mandiram, where thousands have come together to journey into the silent depths of the heart.

As we mark this milestone, we take to our mats again to rest in stillness, to find clarity, and to deepen our connection with ourselves, with each other, and with the divine presence underlying all.

Join us as we honor Amma’s love and light, which have been our polestar, as together we take the next step forward, dedicating our practice for the peace and happiness of all beings.

Retreat Features:

  • Sitting & Walking Meditation
  • Satsang
  • Words on Practice – Reflection on 10 Years of Retreats
  • Yoga
  • Archana
  • Classic Schedule Format
  • Live ZOOM Meetings w/ Online Particpants

Bhagavad Gita & Yoga Retreat

Making Friends with the Mind

August 26-31, 2025

w/ Bri. Amrita Chaitanya,
Narendra & more

uddhared ātmanātmāna nātmānam avasādayet
ātmaiva hyātmano bandhur ātmaiva ripur ātmana
“Lift yourself with your own mind. Do not let yourself fall. For your mind can be your best friend, or your worst enemy.” (Bhagavad Gita 6:5)

This retreat, rooted in the Bhagavad Gita, invites us to embrace the mind with kindness and understanding.

In this spirit, we will explore how a pause between thought and action opens us to love, reverence, and humility. From this quiet space, we learn to move through life with our mind as a true friend.

To guide us, we are delighted to welcome Bri. Amrita Chaitanya as our scripture teacher. Her clarity and practical insight spring from 20 years immersed in Amma’s teachings, Sanskrit, and the scriptures. In the other classes, Narendra and others will skillfully weave the Gita’s wisdom into yoga asana, relaxation, and meditation.

Join us as we celebrate 10 years of Amrita Silent Retreats Yoga immersed in Krishna’s wisdom.

Retreat Features:

  • Scripture Classes
  • Q&A Session
  • Yoga Asana Classes
  • Breath & Relaxation Sessions
  • Meditation
  • Translation Available in French, Spanish & German.
