8-Day Awareness & Meditation Retreat
9 – 16 August 2026
Online via Zoom + In Person in Pune
About the Retreat
The 9–16 August retreat with Rajee offers a space to discover that Awakening is not a distant goal, but a living reality that can be explored here and now.
True Clarity, True Joy, and True Knowing are not separate experiences to be pursued, but natural expressions of the same Awakening. As this Awakening deepens, it may first be recognised as greater Clarity, unfold as an effortless Joy or stillness, or reveal itself as a direct Knowing of our True Nature. Each is simply a different doorway into the same living reality.
The retreat format introduced in July beautifully supported participants with very different backgrounds. Whether joining for the first time or continuing a long-standing exploration, everyone was able to enter naturally at their own depth. This same open structure continues in August, offering the freedom to explore in the way that is most alive for each participant.
Through guidings, contemplative conversations, sharings, and a carefully designed program, the retreat supports participants where they are — allowing True Clarity to emerge, True Joy to deepen, and True Knowing to reveal itself naturally.
Participation is possible both in person and online, so you may join in the way that feels most supportive for you.
For more information about the retreat, we invite you to watch the two short introduction videos by Rajee that were shared for the previous retreats. One introduces the core vision of the retreat (https://youtube.com/shorts/1VL1mkbh024), while the other offers a fresh perspective on Awakening (https://youtube.com/shorts/GZpxGgSLR50). Together, they provide a deeper sense of the spirit, direction, and depth of the retreat.
