Two-week midsummer retreat with Guru Purnima
JULY 14th – 28th
Many traditions worldwide celebrate the full moon in July as the moon of the spiritual guide, or guru.
Guru Purnima, as it is known in India, is a day of gratitude for all those who light our path and endlessly inspire us to realise freedom.
We enjoy this with ritual, prayer and lots of joyful festivities.
This year Guru Purnima is on Sunday 21st of July.
If you want to come, your stay is 2 weeks.
Padmasambhava week
OCTOBER 20th – 27th
In this week there will be a 24 hour recitation of the Vajra Guru mantra; the Self in the form of Padmasambhava.
This mantra calls the essence of all ‘Buddhas of all times’. The universal essence is perfect in itself and is contained in this mantra. Like every year, we will recite this 24 hour meditation with drums.
Special shaman-week with Roos
OCTOBER 27th – NOVEMBER 3rd
Dear All,
This spring we will meet in the world of the shaman.
It is a privilege for me to be at La Roseraie with its exquisite nature.
Together we will perform ritual that is in alignment with all who are there. Through sound, a specific dimension will be invoked, for example a healing dimension. The objects placed in the ritual are related to spiritual masters, to nature, to dimensions of light. Bring an object that you would love to have empowered in the ritual. Also bring your drum!
I look forward seeing you.
Roos
Christmas retreat
DECEMBER 22nd – JANUARY 5th
The Christmas retreat in La Roseraie de Sacha has become a tradition for many years.
There will be meditation and satsang with Prajnaparamita each day.
These provocative, compassionate, direct and deeply moving gatherings are accompanied by music and mantras; a celebration of being and a prayer for all.
Plenty of time will be given for quiet contemplation and walks in the exquisite nature of this sacred place.
NOW is the time to listen and to obey the call of the heart:
Be still, relax, rest, and live Love, no matter what
It is possible to participate in the retreat for one or two weeks (starting December 22nd or 29th).
