Living Enlightenment
Born once again!
8-day Retreat in Sweden
“As a newborn child, full of innocent joy and curiosity
to know this life, we long to know every flower,
every butterfly, every shining star in the sky.
We want to bloom together with that flower,
we want to fly with that butterfly.
In life when time is passing by, we learn how we as humans, as men and women, are supposed to behave, supposed to act, supposed to fulfill the social conditions and the common understanding of how the human life is supposed to be. In this process, in the pursuit to achieve the given goals and values in this life, we lost our original natural state of joy, innocence, and peace.
We entered into repeated patterns of emotions and thoughts, pain and suffering. Yet, the thirst remains—and the hope that one day I will be free. One day I will reopen my innocent eyes again with the same curiosity, to know this life again. This very longingness makes you to desire for the total liberation – the enlightenment.”

Living Enlightenment
July 25 - Aug 1, 2026
8-day Retreat in Sweden
During this 8-day retreat, Guruji Sri Vast shares a profound way to enter the realm of the enlightened state – a state which we all deep inside long for. Yet in the moment of modern life, we are so often entangled in the challenges of our daily life – in our career, family, relationships and health, while our deepest thirst can easily remain hidden beneath the surface.
We warmly invite you
to a life-affirming inner journey
Beyond this worldly life, every human being carries the seed of divine consciousness which is intangible, pure and already complete. The encounter with the Master invites one to realize one’s true self, which has to be explored, experienced and expressed in life – the purpose one is born with.
this retreat is for you,
if you are...
Feeling a call for enlightenment – the path of total liberation
Looking for spiritual growth and inner transformation
Ready to move beyond limitations and expand your awareness
Longing to free yourself from all that keeps you from living life fully
Seeking healing from past wounds and inner suffering
Wishing to experience deeper peace, love, and freedom
Standing at a threshold of change and ready to embrace newness in life
Inspired to cultivate conscious and healthy living in everyday life.
“ Liberate, totally liberate until the question of Liberation disappears within you.
Flow, just flow with the Life. In that flow you and me will disappear. The comparison of your inner and outer world will disappear. Without knowing you will realize that you are already there.”
– Guruji Sri Vast

Retreat Program
Participants share:
“There is an innate peace inside of everyone's heart, which cannot be taken away. From the time we are born, every situation makes us to go out of this peace, to experience the situation and return back to that peace, again and again.
Like clouds that come and go, while the empty sky is always there, the peace within always remains.
The more we grow up, the distance between the clouds tend to get shorter and shorter and eventually the sky is fully hidden by the clouds. Sometimes one may lose the hope that there is still a blue sky behind these clouds. Yet there is a longing to see that sky and to realize that the clouds are just passing by, which are not permanent.
In the same way, within everyone what is permanent is the innate peace, the everlasting peace you are born with – always inside of you. Your longing to experience this peace is your spiritual thirst. To return to your peace, to bring your peace to the surface.
I welcome you all to enter into your infinite peace, to enter into your infinite freedom, to enter into your infinite love which is beyond your life. Your peace is the foundation for your total liberation. You have the possibility to achieve the highest human potential – the Enlightened state.
The only requirement is your thirst – the thirst to be free.”

Experiences
by participants from previous retreats:
“This retreat experience is definitely a deep inner journey. It gradually grew into a new understanding of myself, of spirituality itself. Being in the presence of an enlightened Master is a felt experience, being in this love, kindness but also in radical truth, and yet it is not heavy, full of jokes and laughter.”
Daria – The Netherlands

“Through the Teachings and the living here – which in whole is a very authentic experience – I feel like I can go home and be more true to my inner Self. And let expectations of my surroundings, of friends, of loved ones, but mostly of myself stay a little further away.“
Jakob – Denmark
