Learn how to move out of your head and into your heart to deepen your devotion in this mini two-day retreat. 

Join us in the studio for Satsang led by (Baba) Bhagavan Das & Amulya Maa. 

There will be an opening invocation, chanting, and Q&A, followed by a closing prayer and the Hanuman Chalisa.

Baba’s health procludes him from traveling, so they will join us in the studio live-streaming. We have a big monitor and speakers so you will see and hear them well. We have a good camera and microphone so they will be able to see and hear you well too.

Bhagavan Das was the first American to live in the jungle of the Himalayas as a hermit-sadhu. He was given the holy name of Ram by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. He then came to meet Swami Chaitanya Prakashananda Tirth who gave him tapas to pray for God's Grace. In 1965, after a year of fasting, prayer and intense purification, Bhagavan Das met his Sat Guru, the Mahasiddha Neem Karoli Baba (Maharaji) who he lived with side by side for many years.

Maharaji sent him to Anandamayi Ma to receive initiation from the Divine Mother. Later, during his time with the Tibetan yogis, he was the first westerner to meet and live with Lama Kalu Rinpoche, the guru of the 16th Karmapa. He gave Bhagavan Das the Mahamudra transmission. Bhagavan Das received the Clear Light of Primordial Awareness from His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche and then the Vajra Yogini transmission directly from the 16th Karmapa in Sikkim. 

As a Mystic, Muse, and Lover of Life, Amulya Maa is an advanced Vipassana meditator, having completed eleven 10-day retreats and maintaining a consistent Vipassana practice 2x/day. She is a bhakti yogini and tantrika who deepens her practices through the Tibetan Buddhist Vajrayana lineage. Amulya received the name "Sangay Dolma" from the Venerable Lama Gyalsten when she was initiated into the Shangpa Kagyu lineage of the great Lama Kalu Rinpoche.

For several years, Amulya served alongside the great humanitarian saint Amma Amritanandamayi Ma, who gave her the name "Amulya" in 2009. Amulya means "priceless, precious, and of a value too great to measure." As an alchemist, Amulya Maa facilitates transformational healing and heart path awakening through spiritual and intuitive guidance in person and online.

Fridays, November 7 - 14 - 21

8:00 AM - 9:00 AM

Primordial Sound Meditation (PSM) is a powerful mantra based healing practice relying on personalized mantras. Rooted in Vedic traditions of India, this ancient practice allows you to experience inner-calm and deep relaxation. Using a Vedic mathematical formula, PSM uses individually selected sounds of nature (mantras) based on the vibrations the universe was creating at the moment of your birth. “Mantra” is a Sanskrit word which means “instrument for the mind” and is used to disconnect us from the activity of the world.

This training is comprised of four (4) sessions. We will meet the first three (3) Fridays of the month, with an additional private session after the first class.

Session I: Learn the basic principles of meditation, its history and the importance of your mantra.

Session 2: Receive your personal mantra in a private one-on-one ceremony.

Session 3: Learn the practical aspects of meditation and the nuts and bolds of the practice.

Session 4: Learn how to achieve the higher states of consciousness.

In this four session training, you will learn the systematic approach to take control of your inner world and powerfully shape your external world, eliminating stress in the process, while creating health, vitality, and happiness.

The goal of yoga sadhana is Self-realization, not being able to do a handstand or put your foot behind your head. While we will study and learn how to do and modify postures in both programs, we will also study advanced pranayama techniques, kriyas, and other yogic tools to cleanse the nadis and prepare for deeper levels of practice.
