There is a principle that 10% of everything is to be given to god. 10% should be offered in service. This includes a personal sadhana that is 10% of the day or 2 & 1/2 hours devoted to reverence and personal purification. 10% of income should go to charity. And 10% of the year should be spent in meditative retreat.
Breaking the routine stress of regular life whether its the city, kids, or the job is so important. . Taking real time to reflect on life, refocus, learn and delve deeper into the mystery of life is critical to your well being.
At the moment, we have a few slots left for the Snatam Kaur retreat in Mexico.

This is a great opportunity to connect deeper to your voice, to your self and utilize sacred chanting to delve deeper into your spiritual practice.
The experiences you have in a weeklong retreat will be etched into the cells of your being. These moments will then resurface in your meditative practice providing lasting value.
I hope to see you there.
