A week-long retreat of chant, practice workshops, discussion, and music with Krishna Das and Nina Rao.
This retreat offers a meaningful chance to dive into chant in many forms: call-and-response kirtan, chanting long-form prayers to the goddess, the Hanuman Chalisa, and japa with veda mantra recitation. There will also be time to sit with Krishna Das during open Q&A and conversations about whatever is present for you. For many, simply being together and sharing intentions, challenges, and doubts has been deeply comforting. The program also includes meditative sound journeys led by Arjun Bruggeman, along with daily morning all-levels yoga as part of the retreat.
All-inclusive rates include* a seven-night stay and program tuition, plus three daily buffet-style meals featuring gourmet ovo-lacto vegetarian and vegan cuisine, with local fish served three times during your stay. Your booking also includes access to the Blue Spirit amenities and Wifi access. Taxes are included.
