Earth Day Weekend Retreat

Consider the precision and harmonious rhythm in which our Mother Earth expresses her Divine Love. All living beings: plants, trees, insects, mammals, fish, reptiles—all of them, are participating in the Lord’s Creation for her own enjoyment and bliss. Join us this weekend as we delve into Vedic Ecology, drawing on ancient wisdom to inspire our connections to Nature in all her expressions.

The Ashram is bursting with spring colors! This weekend we will have hands-on garden workshops, visit the lavender fields, walk the the Moksha Trail, and share Vedic teachings to deepen our relationship to Divine Mother Earth.
