GANGES RIVER VALLEY PILGRIMAGE, INDIA

With Bristol Maryott & Liz Guardia

March 15-30, 2025

Join Bristol & Liz in the abode of Shiva and the heart of India. On this retreat we will be visiting Jaipur, the land of block printing, the holy towns of Rishikesh high in the Himalayas, Bodhgaya where the Buddha achieved enlightenment and Varanasi, (Kashi) the ultimate pilgrimage location for all Hindus. It is believed that one who is graced to die on the land of Varanasi will attain salvation and freedom from the cycle of samsara. Abode of Lord Shiva and Parvati, this is where they stood when time began.

Spiritual Serenity: A Yoga Retreat in The Ganges River Valley

Are you craving a transformative journey where yoga and spirituality intertwine amidst enchanting landscapes? Look no further. Immerse yourself in the essence of ancient Indian traditions, as these two sacred cities offer unrivaled spiritual sanctuaries. Prepare to embark on a soul-stirring voyage that will leave you renewed, recharged, and deeply connected to your inner self.

ABODE OF SHIVA: RISHIKESH

Nestled in the lap of the majestic Himalayas and cradled by the flowing waters of the Ganges River, Rishikesh has long been recognized as the yoga capital of the world. This picturesque location is imbued with a sense of tranquility that permeates every corner, making it the perfect backdrop for your spiritual journey. Flowing gracefully through the heart of Rishikesh, the Ganges River holds immense spiritual significance for Hindus. Consciously immersing oneself in its holy waters is believed to cleanse the soul of impurities. Witnessing the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti, a sacred evening ritual performed on the banks of the river, is an experience that awakens a profound sense of spirituality within.

JAIPUR: THE PINK CITY

Welcome to Jaipur, a vibrant and enchanting city nestled in the heart of Rajasthan, India. With a rich history dating back to the 18th century, Jaipur is a city that seamlessly blends the old with the new. From its magnificent palaces and majestic forts to its bustling markets and colorful festivals, Jaipur offers a unique cultural experience like no other. Here we will try our hand at block printing and visit some of the best markets in India.

BODGHAYA: GONE BEYOND

Bodhgaya is a sacred place of profound significance for those on a spiritual journey. Located in the state of Bihar, India, Bodhgaya holds the distinction of being the site where Siddhartha Gautama, the historical Buddha, attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. This serene destination draws pilgrims from all over the world, seeking inner peace and a connection to the teachings of Buddhism. The Mahabodhi Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage site, stands as a magnificent monument that encapsulates the essence of Bodhgaya. As visitors traverse the temple grounds, they are enveloped in an aura of tranquility and introspection. The presence of Buddhist monasteries, meditation centers, and prayer flags fluttering in the gentle breeze further immerses individuals into a spiritual realm that resonates with their own quest for enlightenment. It is in Bodhgaya that one can truly grasp the transformative power of self-reflection and delve deep into their own spiritual journey.

VARANASI: THE DIVINE TAPESTRY OF LIFE AND DEATH

Next, we venture to Varanasi, the oldest living city on earth and the spiritual capital of India. Known as the City of Light, Varanasi offers an ethereal experience where life and death intertwine. On the banks of the sacred Ganges River, be transported into a realm where time feels suspended, and spiritual devotion reigns supreme.

In Varanasi, allow the sacred energy of this ancient city to seep into your practice. Rise with the sun and practice yoga by the river to invigorate your body and mind. Observe the beauty of a city that embraces spirituality at every turn, from the awe-inspiring Vishwanath Temple to the mesmerizing evening Ganga Aarti (ritual).

Embrace the mystical atmosphere of Varanasi by taking a boat ride along the holy Ganges River. Witness the devotion of pilgrims as they cleanse their souls in the sacred waters. Explore the heart of the city's labyrinthine streets, where artisans, sadhus, and seekers of spiritual wisdom create a vibrant tapestry. Let the essence of Varanasi envelop you, forever transforming your perspective on life and spirituality.

A Journey to the Inner Self

This retreat offers more than a physical getaway. It is an invitation to dive within and ignite the spark of spirituality that resides deep within. Whether you are a seasoned yogi or a beginner on this path, our retreat caters to all levels of practice.
