Weekend In-Person Retreat
November 16th & 17th, 2024
This is a non-residential event.
There are ONLY 35 places available.
This is an opportunity to sit in silence and dialogue with Amoda Maa in an intimate setting.
In this sacred meeting space, there is an amplification of the field of presence and the possibility to open to the innermost discovery of what is already here as the natural state of open awareness. You will have the opportunity to ask your essential questions and share your realizations.
Kavi will sitting side by side with Amoda, and he will be available to offer guidance and support in the Q&A time. We have found that this creates a beautiful dance of masculine and feminine that is much appreciated by those who love our teachings!
Prerequisite: Before registering it is preferable that you have attended at least one live (online or in-person) event with Amoda Maa. If you have not done so, we ask you to watch some of her discourses on her Youtube Channel or read her books Falling Open in a World Falling Apart or Embodied Enlightenment. Some familiarity with her teaching is a prerequisite for these intimate gatherings.
