Retraite: retreat from 1 to 12 August 2022

I discovered the ashram through instagram and saw the opportunity to do the 10-day silent retreat. The whole attendance from the beginning gave me a lot of confidence and when I arrived I already felt the seriousness of the work that would be done. The staff was very well prepared, the dining rooms and dormitories are cozy and the food is delicious.
I leave today with my heart a little stronger, the pain of meditation (of the position) is for strengthening, no one had ever explained this to me. And persistence is the important word in the process.
Fear was present and I discovered that it is a guidance, this didn't make it go away but I started a relationship with it. Fear was present and I discovered that it is an orientation, this didn't make it go away but I started a relationship with it. I felt fear, I felt like leaving, the challenge was very big, the process was very difficult, there was pain, there was doubt, but the guidance, the satsangs at night always had the message that I needed to hear in my process.
Sriman Narayana is a master and showed me what I needed to see. I am aware of my emptiness and I know it will be filled with the experience of continuing to practice.
I came looking for freedom for my life and I realized that True Freedom is offered to me.
