Retreats and Teacher Training
This page is updated regularly
AYP retreats are recommended, because they work -- providing a large boost in individual and global evolution. It doesn't matter how small a retreat is when starting out. We all have to start somewhere, and it can evolve naturally from there. Stillness in action has its own way of organizing things. So we do whatever we can, and let it grow naturally in stillness.~Yogani
