Summer meditation retreat

€350.00
  • Even the sea stirs. Even the summer wind lifts the sand. But the depths remain still. Stillness is not something to be sought. It is only the mind that invented noise and then sent you searching for a way out. The mirror of the world, where everything wants something, does not disturb meditation. If anything, it reveals it. When everything pushes, consumes, dazzles, and seduces, there is a space that does not take part in the game. And yet... it contains everything. Sink into that place, where nothing needs peace in order to be peace.

    Moments of silence

  • Situated on the gentle hills of the small town of Lanuvio in the Castelli Romani, among olive trees, cypresses, fruit trees, and countless flowering plants, the farmhouse of Shanti Gaia (Abode of Peace) offers a sanctuary of contemplative calm open to all. As one travels along the path leading to the Abode of Peace, it is common to feel the mind begin to calm while the heart opens to the sweetness and serene attention of the present moment.

Neeraja

At 24, I traveled to India in search of wisdom. There, I studied under Tibetan Buddhist masters such as Kalu Rinpoche and the Dalai Lama, immersing myself in the monasteries of the Himalayas. Drawn to the arts of natural healing, I studied and taught Tibetan medicine and Reiki in various countries. In 1991, I met my Master Sri H.W.L. Poonjaji (Papaji), a disciple of Sri Ramana Maharshi. In Lucknow, under his guidance, I blossomed in detachment as Neeraja, the blue lotus. After years of service near Papaji, I decided to dedicate myself to spiritual teaching in the West, with love, peace, and serenity, following his prophecy: "You will bring happiness to the world."
