Sacred Living: Embodying the Divine in Daily Life
Join us for an embodied passage through stillness, devotion, and community
“Wisdom tells me I am nothing.
Love tells me I am everything.
Between the two my life flows.”
— Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
This is the heart of the Tantric path, not choosing one over the other, but holding both the formless and the form as sacred. In the tradition of non-dual Shaiva Tantra, awakening is a recognition of the unchanging Self through life.
This online retreat invites you into that movement: from stillness into expression, from emptiness into embodiment, from quiet into praise. Here, the inward and the outward are no longer in conflict. They are two faces of the same truth.
The Path of Awakening
We explore each of these through direct experience, woven into the structure, practices, and flow of the retreat.

Why Online?
Attending the Bali Retreat virtually allows you to be fully part of the live immersions, while also giving you the freedom to revisit the teachings through replays at your own pace.Â
This option is a way to receive the essence of the teachings, while weaving the practices naturally into your life.
What you'll gain
Here’s what may genuinely shift as a result of this experience:
-
Sacred Space at Home: Retreat from the noise without leaving your life. This retreat helps you create a container within your everyday environment
Balance Presence & Expression: Whether you tend toward silence or energy, you’ll learn to hold both as a dance of your being.
A Grounded, Sustainable Spirituality:Â No fluff or woo woo. Real, embodied, and alive in your daily life.
Contact with the Heart: Rest in the pulse of your own being, abide in the peace of the heart.
Invitation
This retreat is not about miraculously transforming your life into some idealized (and probably unattainable) ecstatic way of being. It’s an invitation to rediscover the sacred essence imbued in every aspect of your life, with heart, clarity, care, and the presence of purely being.
