In this age of instant communication, it can be easy to get lost. But there is a way back to stillness, to quiet joy: the Monthlong Silent Retreat.
For a full month, immerse yourself in meditation, yoga, satsangs, and scripture. Take this time to reconnect with Amma as you gently re-establish a steady daily practice that ripples outward.
This year, Narendra, Rasya, Br. Rishi Chaitanya, and Rudran will guide the retreat, and Br. Atmaprakash Chaitanya and Br. Mitramrita Chaitanya will offer scripture classes.
Br. Atmaprakash Chaitanya will explore vairāgya—inner detachment—as a quiet but powerful support for deep meditation. He will guide us to gently loosen our grip on the constant stimulation and demands of the world, so we can meet life with greater clarity and freedom.
Br. Mitramrita Chaitanya will draw from the Bhagavad Gītā and the Yoga Sūtras to explore how willpower, insight (jñana), and surrender (bhakti) can deepen our practice.
After more than a year without a Monthlong Silent Retreat, something in us is ready to return.
Join us for this rare and transformative experience.
Videos Accessible for 14 days

on a small rooftop by the ocean, where Amma first heard
the sacred mantras MA and OM.
