Retreat – Mahashivaratri 2026 The Night of Awakening
A Journey into the Infinite Self
Mahashivaratri Retreat Kerala
The Night of Awakening – A Journey into the Infinite Self
“What happens when the night becomes a bridge between mortality and eternity? When fire consumes not only wood, but the shadows of our identity?”
The Night When the Universe Pauses
Mahashivaratri – the great night of Shiva – is not a festival of outer celebrations, but a call to the innermost depths. An invitation to shed the costume of personality and encounter consciousness itself. In a time when the world screams outward, this sacred night whispers: Turn around. Return home.
This retreat unites the depth of Vedic tradition with modern consciousness research. Four days and an all-night vigil await you in the heart of Kerala – embedded in the natural beauty of South India, where earth and heaven touch.
“In the silence of the night, that which remains hidden during the day is revealed – the eternal Self.” – Ramana Maharshi
