Nirarta, Bali 22 - 25 Aug. 2024

Our Direction...

For most people, life is a journey, a path from cradle to grave.

But where are we really heading? If you have been wondering about the path and where it leads, this 30-hour intensive  provides powerful pointers and practices to light your way. 

It offers an simple vital compass to help you realize, today, what you have always been seeking – your own inner nature and source – the unbounded fulfilment of Living Awareness.

Through this programme you will

  • Connect with your inner compass to become more at home in yourself and the world
  • Activate an integrative map to help you develop as a whole person
  • Acquire a simple set of practical tools to accelerate your unfolding in daily life
  • Glimpse your essential nature, so that you know where you are truly heading in this life
  • Enjoy three days of rest and renewal to heighten your awareness and recharge your batteries for the coming period
  • Release some of the tensions and blocks holding you back
  • Dip into the deeper wisdom, sustaining culture and community in Bali, to help you flow more gracefully

Refresh and renew yourself in a beautiful setting, at the Nirarta Centre, in the heart of the lush Sidemen valley – with twice-daily group meditation and sessions of ‘innerdance’ 

How We Work...

Through a mix of short talks, practical experiential processes, combined with sharing in small groups and in the larger group, to explore, assimilate, and embody, through direct knowing, in our whole being.

What can we gain by sailing to the moon if we are not able to cross the abyss that separates us from ourselves? This is the most important of all voyages of discovery, and without it, all the rest are not only useless, but disastrous.

Key Topics and Themes

  • Living Awareness – the abiding realization of silent Source of Presence, wordlessly living life within and through ourselves and all things.
  • The Way of Unfolding: the natural process of evolution manifesting over time – in the cosmos, in nature, in our societies, and in our lives
  • Understanding our development through the multi-levelled unfolding of the processes of change, learning, and growth

 

  •  The Four Key Avenues to Living Awareness:
    • Turning within to the Heart of Being – Awareness Meditation
    • Energetic release to open and free the bodymind – Energy Meditation, free movement, and innerdance
    • Awakening through inquiry – exploring and uncovering the true Self through Conversation on the Edge of Silence
    • Embracing wholeness through deepening relation and resonance with the Other – in nature, in our lives, and with each other 

 

  • Grace and gratitude: the power of prayer and offering to soften the heart
