Retreat Testimonials

WHAT PAST PARTICIPANTS ARE SAYING:

Hari Karam Singh
London, U.K.

“Baba Rampuri is a one-of-kind individual. He has the analytical intelligence and library of a top western academic. He’s also maintained the discipline for over 40 years as a Naga Baba, a mystical group whose traditions and ancient knowledge are still very much guarded and closed to the outside world.

He’s one of the most fascinating people with whom you could ever have a conversation and his conversation of choice, Speech in all it’s functions, philosophies and fallacies, is probably the single most important one to be having right now. Babaji gives you a glimpse onto another world and clearly draws the ties to the modern story.

Nothing short of mind-blowing.

And his chelas are amazing cooks."

“The Diwali 2014 retreat with Baba Rampuri turned out to be one of the most fascinating, inspiring and valuable experiences of my life.

I have never come across anyone who could explain and articulate such a complex subject matter and make it so understandable, interesting, enjoyable and available to a regular person.

His storytelling abilities are extraordinary and his knowledge of subjects ranging from history to geography, politics, literature, movies & art is exceptional. Viewing these subjects through Baba Ji’s knowledge tradition is extremely interesting. I thank him for being such an important part of my life.

I feel that the experience gave me more than the past 10 years of quite intense study of various spiritual subjects. Whenever I think back I am filled with joy and feeling of gratitude for the blessings I feel that I received.

Among the benefits I received from the retreat, I learned and realized that an essential part of increasing my Self Knowledge is getting a deeper understanding of my own culture and background. What is it really to be Norwegian and what does it do to me. I got more handles on the concepts of Sacred Speech & I am continuing my studies and inquiry by practicing what we learned.

I highly recommend doing a Retreat and Pilgrimage with Baba Rampuri. I feel that anyone interested in learning more about themselves & about life will receive tremendous benefits from the experience.

Deconstructing Yoga – India Retreat with Baba Rampuri

Our December retreat, “Deconstructing Yoga: Liberating Consciousness,” will take place at my dhuni in Goa from December 18-24. Twice daily, we will perform arati and puja in our small Temple next to the dhuni, with explanation and instruction for participants to do this later in their own homes. On Dattatreya Jayanti, Dec 24, we will have a Homa performed by Brahmin purohits, invoking Guru Dattatreya. I will teach the “protocols of knowledge” as a basis for tradition and sadhana.
