"Exploring Consciousness – Body, Mind & Beyond: The Upanishads And Yoga Series 4"
MRYS cordially invites you to join us in Oberhofen am Thunersee, Switzerland, for a Upanishad retreat with Sri M, which offers a unique opportunity to listen, imbibe and introspect on the deep spiritual wisdom that is hidden in the Upanishads. This retreat is a continuation of the “Exploring Consciousness – Body, Mind & Beyond: The Upanishads and Yoga Series” that Sri M has conducted in Switzerland since 2017.
Please note that there will be no Kriya initiations during this retreat. However, participants will have the opportunity to interact with Sri M during the breaks, where they can ask questions and clarify any doubts regarding Kriya.
