Mukti’s Invitation to Retreat

Encounter the power of your deepest self in a retreat format honed over 25 years . . .

  • Ground in the peace and clarity of meditation.
  • Engage your innermost spiritual questions.
  • Discover the energetic unfolding of awakening.

This Weekend Online Retreat is designed to mirror the experience of our in-person residential silent retreats. The full three-day program includes daily talks and Q&A sessions, along with periods of guided and silent meditation, and qi gong sessions.

The structure and schedule for silent retreat has been developed by Adyashanti and Mukti over many years of teaching to create an environment which allows everyone to experience the depth of silence. Retreat helps promote awareness, reflection, and embodiment of the truth of who we are and all that is through our participation in the atmosphere and cultivation of a shared intention with others. Retreat is a time of one-pointed inquiry, a commitment to questioning our most cherished ideas and beliefs.

Apart from Mukti’s live talks, participants will sit with themselves in quietude, feeling the support of the larger group of retreatants who share a like-minded intention.

The Experience of Retreat with Mukti

“After listening to Mukti’s guided meditation in the Sunday Community gathering, her connection with the earth reaches into my heart—simply palpable. Mukti’s understanding and merging of Self-realization and Self-knowledge within the human—spirit and humanity—is a way home.”
~ J. M. 

Sharing retreat with Mukti is an opportunity to be supported by her nurturing and welcoming qualities and her deep transmission of stillness. Her teachings focus on creating conditions that foster the organic unfolding of conscious awareness where energies that arise can be met, allowed, and transformed. Encouraged by her deep respect for each person’s expression as human and divine, her retreatants have formed new and beautiful relationships to thoughts, feelings, and emotions, as well as a deeper receptivity to spirit.

Mukti also brings a special perspective, being Adyashanti’s first student! Stories of her journey of Self-realization are invaluable and bring a fresh feminine take on many of Adya’s pointers. Her invitation to us all is generous and powerful—that of “Spirit coming to know and express itself in our human life.” We hope you take this opportunity to explore and learn from her intimate teachings.

Schedule

The program schedule was developed by Mukti and Adyashanti and reflects their experience of what supports spiritual awakening. The deep silence of meditation, coupled with the focused inquiry of the talks and dialogues, are the ground and seed from which awakening flowers. The retreat structure is especially significant. Setting aside several days to be free of your usual schedules, routines, and obligations, is the best way to listen deeply and open to your natural condition that expresses as vitality, peace, and freedom.

FULL PROGRAM SCHEDULE

About Silence

While this program was designed to support those wishing to participate in full silence, we understand this may not always be possible. Complete silence is neither required, nor necessary, to obtain the benefits inherent in immersing yourself in introspection and inquiry for a dedicated period of time. Also, the proposed program schedule can be adapted to fit your availability.

Alternative Time Zone Considerations

This retreat will be held in the Pacific Time Zone (PT) but is accessible to everyone. Video replays will be available for 30 days after the retreat.

For those in later U.S. time zones, we recommend you adapt the program schedule by shifting the late-night meditations to the mornings.

For those in more distant time zones, you may Contact Us for an additional option which includes faster replays.
