If you are a startup organization, join us to explore what happens when an organization strives to create a working environment or culture so that its own people- founders as well as team members- grow from within while they are doing their work? Moreover, what happens when the same organization strives further to mould its own products or services in a way so that even its customers get a chance to grow from within while they use the offerings of the organization?

RETREATS
PARTICIPANT'S SPEAK
"I realized that the heart is simple. It's the mind the mischievous one, that complicates it all. Yet mind needs to be handled with care and gentleness, not too strictly. The problem begins when we give ourselves too much importance. When we shed our identity and surrender completely, that's when magic begins to work. It is essential to learn how to 'LET GO' of people, circumstance, emotions and fears. I realized that the Heart knows it all."
- Pragya Banka, Surat |
We organize retreats in the midst of Himalayas to bring you back to your heart and closer to your purpose of being. Our retreats come in three formats:
'Dealing with Negative Emotions' Retreat is designed for those who feel that most of their life energy is being drained by the negative emotions such as Anger, Fear, Anxiety, Attachment, Greed, Jealousy etc on daily basis, thus leaving them with less energy energy to focus on what is important in life. 'Head2Heart' retreat comes with an objective to take its seekers on a journey from their Minds to their Hearts so that they can not only identify their Heart’s calling, but also gather courage to follow the same in the real world. ‘Peaceful Living’ retreat is designed with a purpose to go inside and understand the real needs of ourselves which go beyond material offerings of the world. It takes us on an inner journey to experience the meaning of love, compassion and trust to discover inner peace. |

The Dialogue facilitated me to live through ages, starting from primitive to pre-colonial to post-independence and beyond. It helped me to have a bird's eye view of the whole scenario, and develop a new perspective on development discourse. The program has a power to change lives."
