Heart of the Beloved Retreats

Across the faith traditions, there is a universal path of divine love that calls us to give ourselves in love, and rise to our highest destiny: the ineffable mystery of oneness with the Divine. In different ways, yet with one voice, scriptures and mystics down through the ages have sounded a clarion call to unite with ‘the Beloved’:

• “I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me.”  (St. Paul)
• Aham Brahmasmi (I am Brahman)  (Brihadaranyaka Upanishad
• “Be still and know that I am God” (Psalm 46
• An al haq! (I am the Supreme Reality)  (Al Hallaj)

How do we answer this urgent call of the soul? Whether we identify as Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Jew, Buddhist-or none of these-how can the “Beloved” become the living truth of our being, rather than mere flowery rhetoric or theological ideal?

Together we explore the ‘interspiritual’ path of divine love-drawing on teachings and practices from diverse spiritual traditions. These retreats offers a unique, intensive forum for spiritual seekers from diverse faiths-including those who identify as ‘spiritual but not religious,’ or with more than one tradition-who are inspired to follow the call of the heart and walk the path of love and service in daily life.

Inspiration and teachings are drawn from Christian, Hindu, Sufi, and Buddhist traditions-as well as breakthroughs in modern science-to illuminate the essence of a universal path of divine love, and support us to walk this path in our own lives.
