It was a three days programme, conducted by Swami Sri Krishnananda ji. 28 devotees from HP, Chandigarh, Haryana, Karnataka, J&K and Punjab attended the programme. One SRF devotee was from Moscow, Russia.

The Retreat was intended to deepen the spiritual practice of devotees through a better understanding of the three elements of Kriya Yoga, explained by Rishi Patanjali as Tapah, Swadhyaya and Ishwarapranidhanani according to our Guruji’s Teachings.

During the programme, Swami ji covered these three topics. Tapa means practice of Guru given Sadhna in a regular and honest manner. Swadhyaya means self study of scriptures and teachings of Guruji to remain in tune with God and Gurus, and also daily introspection. Ishwarpranidhanani means to love God and Gurus unconditionally and learning to surrender so as to invite their grace. The contents of these three topics were arranged in a cohesive manner through stories, teachings of our Gurus as mentioned in the GTWA, YSS Lessons, Holy Science etc.

The programme also included regular daily morning /evening meditation sessions, Video Shows and Bhajans which were enjoyed by all the participants.
