Raksha Bandhan ~ Blessing of the Yogis

Celebrate Raksha Bandhan with us, to honor the eternal bond that unites us all! 

Raksha Bandhan means “bond of protection” in Sanskrit. In many traditions, this festival symbolizes the sacred tie between brothers and sisters. For yogis, the festival takes on a deeper meaning; it is a celebration of the bond that connects all of humanity: our united purpose to benefit all beings. 

Just as a sister ties a sacred thread around her brother’s wrist, our Gurus offer a personal blessing of protection, called a rakhi, to anyone who wishes to receive it. Join us for this rare opportunity to celebrate unity in our divided world! 

Ashram festivals are a remarkable opportunity to join a group of people living the ancient, traditional way of life Yogis have followed for thousands of years. Travel back to a time centered on what matters most in life, step back from what has become the “norm” and embrace a very old way of honoring life. This is a day of inspiring intensives, illuminating discourse, uplifting ceremony, incredible food, and live music!

Detailed schedule TBA.
