Join Gurudevi in celebrating her 50^th anniversary of teaching as well as her 80^th birthday in Ganeshpuri, India. She is generously inviting you to join her in her Golden Jubilee, explaining,

I had been planning a personal retreat for my 80^th birthday, marking off tentative dates in my calendar. Then I realized it is also the 50^th anniversary of my teaching. That means you are part of the reason I’m going. You are the reason why I do what I do. So you are invited!

This retreat focuses on diving deep. Daily practices begin at 4:20 am in Nityananda’s temple, followed by breakfast, chanting and a yoga class.  A leisurely lunch and recess follows.

The afternoon includes a sutra discourse, more chanting and meditation. After dinner, Nityananda’s temple has a special closing ceremony every night. Day by day, hour by hour, you will join Gurudevi in marinating in Consciousness.

Yogis who have previously traveled with her to Ganeshpuri describe their powerful experiences:

The practices are intensified by being performed on these sacred lands. Each
time I come to India, my starting point is where I left off last time. — Bob (Rudra) Nogue

Ganeshpuri puts me physically in the riverbed of Grace that flows through this lineage. Doing practices with Gurudevi in the dusty village that was built around Nityananda is a magical combination. Being submerged in a village culture that is full of love for Guru and God opens my heart. I blossom as I spend immersive time with Gurudevi and like-minded yogis. — Rosemary (Rudrani) Nogue

I have traveled to Ganeshpuri three times to be with Gurudevi in the place where she was with her teacher. Early morning, meditations in Nityananda’s mahasamadhi room propelled me deeper and deeper inside. When I visited Muktananda’s mahasamadhi shrine and laid my head on his silver-casted sandals, a wave of Shakti shot through me and unlocked access to my Self. I saw my future. — Carolyn (Karuna) Beaver
