FAQs
This retreat promises to be a profound journey into silence and spirituality, coinciding with the sacred Shivaratri, a night dedicated to honouring Lord Shiva.
Participation Age:
The retreat is designed to cater to individuals who are genuinely seeking deeper spiritual experiences and have the maturity to understand and immerse themselves in the practices and teachings imparted. Here are the guidelines regarding the age of participants:
Minimum Age Requirement: Typically, participants should be 15 years or older. This ensures that individuals are mature enough to understand and fully engage in spiritual practices and maintain the discipline required for a silence retreat.
Exceptions: If someone younger wishes to participate, they must be accompanied by a guardian or parent who is also a participant in the retreat. The guardian must ensure that the younger participant is capable of maintaining the decorum and silence expected during the retreat.
Mature Minors: In some cases, minors who are mature for their age and have a demonstrated capacity for serious spiritual practice may be considered. Direct consultation with the retreat organizers may be required to assess the minor’s readiness and suitability for the retreat.
Important Considerations:
Understanding and Respect: All participants, regardless of age, are expected to have a sincere intention to explore spirituality and a deep respect for the silence and sanctity of the retreat environment.
Physical and Mental Readiness: Participants should be physically and mentally prepared to adhere to the retreat schedule, which includes early mornings, meditations, and other spiritual practices.
Guardian Responsibility: For younger participants, the accompanying guardian must take full responsibility for their well-being and conduct throughout the retreat.
We believe that age should not be a barrier to spiritual growth.
