We are all searching for something in life and this search can be never ending. Often what is needed is a pause to slow down, just be and look within. The meaning and purpose of life is in being present to it. All external pursuits come to an end. But the one who has learnt to find happiness within is forever free. In this retreat we take this pause to connect with ourselves, to be present to our body and breath. To be present to the flavors and aromas of food that nourishes us. To be present to the glorious nature , River Ganges and Mountains. This is the perfect place to forget what’s next and just be.
