Autumn Retreat
Welcome to the Autumn Retreat!
The program includes lots of kiirtan (chanting and dance) in different forms: 15 minutes when waking up, one hour every morning before breakfast, half an hour at midday and evening and 15 minutes before sleep.
The combination of lots of Kiirtan and meditation in the Ashram environment surrounded by nature provides a rare opportunity to deeply connect with your own spirituality and perhaps make some significant breakthroughs. Along with Kiirtan and meditation there will be daily yoga classes and inspiring presentations on spiritual topics which relate to our personal and collective well-being. Healthy and tasty vegetarian food, friendly company and a trip to the beach or the forest (weather permitting) are also part of the program.
On Saturday afternoon there will also be a 6-hour “Akhanda Kiirtan”, a form of circular Kiirtan with many different singers and players where you are free to dance the whole time, listen when you feel like it, or take a break to go for a walk, have your dinner or talk with a friend. After each Kiirtan session there will be half an hour silent sitting meditation followed by a short “Dharma Talk” on a spiritual subject.
On Sunday we will finish with something called “Sadhana Shiviir” where we alternate 20 minutes of kiirtan and 20 minutes of meditation for two hours.
If it’s your first time coming to one of our retreats – welcome!
There will also be a class at the beginning introducing you to mantra-based meditation and Kiirtan as well as other collective spiritual practices. We look forward to having you with us. You can see the full program below along with information about price, registration, food and accommodation.
🔸 VENUE:
Nestled on 13 hectares of farmland just an hour away from Copenhagen, you’ll find Ananda Gaorii Ashram – a peaceful oasis for those seeking a rejuvenating escape. Our serene retreat boasts a range of amenities, including a small orchard, vegetable garden, organic bakery, sauna, meditation hall, dining hall, and more.
🔸 ACCOMMODATION:
At Ananda Gaorii Ashram, we offer separate dormitories for both men and women. These spacious rooms can comfortably accommodate up to 10 people. Alternatively, if you prefer to be closer to nature, you’re also welcome to camp on our beautiful grounds.
🔸 CUISINE:
Our cuisine follows a yogic vegetarian diet, based on foods that are not only beneficial for the body but also calming for the mind. Tea and light snacks are available at different times during the day. The yogic diet excludes seafood/fish, eggs, onion, garlic, and mushrooms, as these foods are believed to be disturbing to the mind during meditation.
