It does not matter what your background is or what religion you come from. When you come to a Samadhi Silent Retreat you will be reminded that the mystics from every religion have said, "the kingdom of God is within". When you quiet the mind you can access that God-Awareness within.

In a Samadhi Silent Retreat, you can experience yourself as the absolute Source, freed from your egocentric body-mind, and well beyond the confines of your earthly experience and delusional concepts about reality.

In a Samadhi Silent Retreat, we forego all communication, all responsibilities, all expectations, and allow the inner silence to speak ever so subtly while we are in a state of watchful receptivity. This has resulted in profound Source Experiences in each of our Silent Retreats. 

With a proven format of dynamic activities, inspired facilitation, and a nurturing atmosphere, we look forward to providing the circumstances that allow you to have this unique Source Experience.
