Immersion in 10 Days of Silence and Darshan
This summer the traditional “Silent Love Retreat” with OM C. Parkin will take place at Gut Saunstorf Monastery – Place of Stillness. The retreat gives you something that is very rare and precious these days: an intense time with yourself in silence and inner reflection.
When love is allowed to enter the inner silence, when nothing else is needed but to deepen the contact with yourself, then silence can take hold.
Retreat Structure
- 10 days of silence
- Daily Darshan in the morning and evening with OM C. Parkin
- Silent hours in the monastery and in the expansive estate park
- Silent meditation in the morning
- One hour of Karma Yoga per day
- Music-Darshan to support the energetic processes
Darshan with OM C. Parkin
Darshan is the direct vision of the Divine, an invitation to listen awake and receptive to your heart. You will have the opportunity to share what moves you and to ask questions in Darshan with OM twice a day. OM’s answers will focus your attention on what is essential. They meet you where you are and lead you into the unknown of your true being. Trusting the complete simplicity and presence of yourself is the process into which you are taken.
Music-Darshan
A truely beautiful aspect of this Silent Love Retreat is the musical accompaniment to the Darshans. A powerful highlight will be the evening Music Darshan, which is dedicated to support the energetic processes of these days.
Karma Yoga
A traditional part of the Silent Love Retreat is the meditative work of Karma Yoga. All those attending spend one hour a day working in the kitchen, house and garden, serving the whole and their own inner process.
