Meditation, Rounding & Vedic Knowledge

The program ~

  • Vedic Meditation is a simple eyes-closed technique, practiced twice a day for 20 minutes. The practitioner uses a personal mantra, a specific sound, which quiets the mind and settles the physiology. The meditator experiences inner wakefulness beyond thought while resting deeply. This profound rest allows deep-rooted stresses to dissolve naturally, bringing innumerable health benefits to the individual.

    Vedic Meditation produces benefits immediately and cumulatively. Most importantly, it makes you happier! It’s so easy you don’t need the ability to focus, concentrate, or use effort. Those qualities will only interfere. It’s an effortless, divine technique that triggers an automatic rest sequence.

    If you haven’t learned Vedic Meditation yet, I invite you to join us in Bali and learn during the retreat. I can’t think of a better location to learn Vedic Meditation.

  • You'll learn and practice an easy advanced technique known as "rounding" - a very enjoyable yet powerful addition to our meditation - which incorporates a simple sequence of specific yoga asanas (no yoga experience is necessary), breath-work (pranayama), a 20 minute meditation, and ten minutes integrative res. Rounding is designed to deepen your meditation to facilitate stress release and the integration of BEING into your eyes-open waking state. It’s extremely restful, blissful, and triggers sharper perception and deep experiences of Unity.

    We begin every day with a sunrise swim (optional) in the Bali Sea. We meet to discuss experiences in rounding and meditation and answer questions. We round, rest, share meals together, and then gather for knowledge meetings and listen to “Sama Veda” before bed.

    There will be opportunities to learn advanced techniques, have your Vedic Astrological chart read, and enjoy some of the most sublime spa treatments in the world.

  • Besides our rounding program, we’ll meet daily as a group to discuss this year’s topic, “God Consciousness, and how to let go and not resist it”. How do we surrender to the very thing we want and that wants us back? What’s in our way of GC and how do we simply surrender to it? What are the mechanics and the laws of Nature that drive us towards higher states of consciousness? If enlightenment and God Consciousness interests you, and it’s your heart’s desire to reach this exalted state of perception, then this retreat is for you.

    The whole purpose of life is to gain enlightenment. Nothing else is significant compared to that completely natural, exalted state of consciousness. So always strive for that. Set our life around that goal. Don’t get caught up in small things, and then it will be yours. -Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
