Our friends at the Anuttara Ashram are hosting a Silent Meditation Retreat, September 18th 5pm to September 25th 4pm

Their retreats consist daily of about five to six hours of meditation, two to three hours of hatha yoga, and one to two hours of relevant lectures. Food is vegan/ vegetarian, accommodations mostly in tents, with the possibility of dormitory and cabins—depending on how their construction projects are going. Participants will be in silence for the entire duration. This retreat will be on a donation basis.
