Holiday Retreat: Love and Mysticism - the Christmas Message

The Christmas season is a time for reflection and renewal, family, friends and love. It is a time of happiness and joy, and it symbolizes for us birth and rebirth – being born into the Spirit, and the strengthening of the bonds of Love – extending Love to all in the world. The great Christian tradition is a tradition underpinned with love, devotion and mysticism, and this is the theme of our Christmas holiday program for 2017, “Love and Mysticism – the Christmas Message”. Mysticism is the path of union with the Absolute – also called Yoga in Sanskrit. Jesus the Christ and the saints of the tradition are all great mystics; they, as well as the Prophets, Saints, Yogis, Buddhas and Avatars of all of the great traditions, enlighten the Goal of Life and the Path – Happiness, Joy, Bliss of the Absolute.

Please join us this holiday season as we study and honor the Christ in all with joy in our hearts. The Christmas and New Year’s Holidays are an amazing time to visit the Yoga Farm – from the natural beauty and stillness of early winter to the dedicated karma yogis who are here to serve and support your path, to the Ashram animals that welcome you and the wonderful vegetarian organic fare – including our Christmas Feast! The program this year is full of all of these, with programs focusing on Love and Mysticism, an amazing special guest in concert offering classical Indian devotional music, caroling, and a special visit by Santa Claus. And, of course, twice daily Satsangs and Yoga Asana classes to help us all to manifest the joy from within. Bring your family or come alone and enjoy with us this greater family of Joy and Love.
