After the great success of the first Youth of Golden Age Retreat in Italy last year, we would now like to continue this tradition. Therefore, we would like to invite you to the Guru-Bhakti Italy Retreat in beautiful Liguria, Italy, which will take place from August 16 – 24, 2025.
The retreat will again take place in the beautiful location of Varazze, on a hill directly on the Ligurian coast, surrounded by forests and with a spectacular view of the ocean. We will again be at the retreat house ”Foresteria La Croce”, for more information see: www.foresteriacroce.it

As the name suggests, the first half of the retreat will be dedicated to deeply devotional days for our Guru. These days will be dedicated to long and deep meditations, silence, Guru-Bhakti Kirtans and study of the teachings dealing with the Guru-disciple relationship. The goal of the whole retreat is a deeper relationship with the guru.

The last couple of days of the retreat week will be more relaxed and social with various excursions to the nearby beach or hikes in the mountains behind us. Surrounded by mountains, forests and the nearby beach, the retreat location also invites you to take beautiful walks in nature. Under this link you can see a draft of the retreat program.

The group house has 24 beds in rooms for 2-3 people. The retreat will be conducted in English. The retreat fee for 8 nights including meals (which we prepare ourselves) is 260 Euros. 

Please register by July 6, 2025 using the following form. Experience has shown that places book up quickly, so it is worth registering as soon as possible. If you have any questions about the retreat, please contact Marco Scura at m.scura@gmx.ch

 

For this Y.O.G.A. retreat there is again the possibility to get a reduction of the retreat fee if needed. Please do not hesitate to ask the board (treasurer@youthofgoldenage.de) about this. We are happy about every devotee whom we could enable to participate in the retreat 🙂

In Divine Friendship
