Those participants wishing to rejuvenate through personal silence will have an opportunity to do so\, as there will be a designated silent dining section and teaching areas are kept mostly silent. For those with families\, this retreat is an opportunity to expose children to core spiritual values while enjoying a summertime vacation together. \nThe annual celebration of Guru Purnimā is an immensely rich Vedic tradition to honour the lineages of teachers. This gathering is a time-honoured traditional fellowship where devotees make offerings (such as flowers\, fruits\, love donation\, usable vegan food items) from their hearts and the choicest blessings are bestowed by the lineage of spiritual masters. His Holiness will bless each devotee and family member with special care for children accompanying their parents. \nWe encourage and welcome you to bring your families and children. Children wanting to listen to the stories during a class session by His Holiness are most welcome to join. Some sessions with His Holiness will be appropriate for children aged 3-12\, but there will also be the option for children aged 3-12 to participate in special children’s activities. To learn more about bringing your children and teens\, please read the sections below labeled “Children’s Camp” and “Teenage Participants. \nThe children’s camp is designed to help parents manifest a family experience within the limitations of the venue\, volunteering and other resources. While the children’s camp allows for parents to attend classes and sessions\, it is not designed to completely free up parent(s) from their own initiative to look after and interact with their children. The retreat schedule allows the flexibility for a combined retreat-vacation supportive of a family experience. \nMeals & Lodging Accommodations\nYour retreat includes three nights of accommodation plus two meals per day. Vegetarian meals\, which are gluten-free and mostly vegan\, will be lovingly prepared according to sattwic Ayurvedic principles. The lodging is apartment style. Each apartment has 4 bedrooms\, 2 bathrooms\, a living room and a kitchen. Individuals will be assigned to shared same-gender apartments. Married couples and families are welcome to stay together in the same apartment\, but each apartment is limited to four people. In some cases\, for families with children\, more than four people may be allowed to stay in an apartment. All rooms are single rooms with only one bed. \nFamily Lodging\nIf you are a family with children\, please call us at 909-543-6003 for assistance with registering. Families of 5 or more will have a few options for staying together or staying in two adjacent apartments. Please call us to inquire further so we can support you to ensure you have a meaningful and comfortable family retreat-vacation. \nFlight Booking & Shuttle Service\nWe have arranged shuttle service to transport participants arriving to and departing from Los Angeles Airport (LAX). Make sure to include the shuttle payment during your registration. This option will be at the bottom of the registration form. \n1st July Arrival Shuttles (LAX to CSUCI)\nFirst shuttle departs LAX at 12noon\nFinal shuttle departs LAX at 3pm\n*Book your flights accordingly keeping baggage claim in mind \n4th July Departure Shuttles (CSUCI to LAX)\nFirst shuttle departs CSUCI for LAX at 7:30am\nFinal shuttle departs CSUCI for LAX at 12noon\n*Book your flights accordingly \nChildren’s Camp\nChildren aged 3-12 years who are accompanied by an adult are welcome to join the Hansacharanam Children’s Camp. The camp will include activities such as: arts & crafts\, reading\, creative writing\, song & kirtan\, yoga & dance\, games\, and other activities. The Children’s Camp sessions will coincide with certain class sessions for adults on the schedule\, but children will eat all meals and snacks with their parents and will stay with their parents in the hotel. A separate Children’s Camp schedule will be available denoting when children will be participating in the class sessions with His Holiness and when they will be engaged in separate Children’s Camp activities. Please email us at events@vps92644.inmotionhosting.com for further details or if you have questions related to the Children’s Camp. \nTeenage Participants (ages 13-17)\nTeens who are 13-17 years old are welcome to attend the Hansacharanam Retreat\, and should register as adult participants. Teens are welcome in all class sessions with His Holiness\, but may also apply to volunteer as Children’s Camp teacher’s aides. Teens who wish to apply as teachers’ aides may email events@vps92644.inmotionhosting.com to learn about the application and approval process for teen volunteers. \nEvery effort has been made to optimize the cost of the retreat for all participants within the restrictions of venue rental and catered meal delivery. Overall this retreat is offered “at cost” to encourage participation\, and your love donations for this auspicious Guru Purnimā occasion will help cover the organization’s indirect costs. \nEvery effort has been made to optimize the cost of the retreat for all participants within the restrictions of venue rental and catered meal delivery.

SUMMARY:MahāŚivarātri Online Fellowship via Zoom Video
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][distance][vc_btn title=”Inquire about Registration” style=”custom” custom_background=”#4e86c4″ custom_text=”#ffffff” size=”lg” link=”url:mailto%3A%20events%40hansavedas.org|target:_blank”][distance][vc_custom_heading text=”MahāŚivarātri Blessings & Inspirational Message” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:24|text_align:left|line_height:1″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_custom_heading text=”Zoom Fellowship with His Holiness Swami Vidyadhishananda” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:18|text_align:left|line_height:1″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]The annual great night of meditation is upon us. Join us for a live online fellowship on the occasion of MahāŚivarātri. Receive blessings via the online blessing line (for those joining via video) and an inspirational message from our Himalayan siddha monk and living saint\, His Holiness Swami Vidyadhishananda\, featuring specially selected audio-visual content. \nThis auspicious evening is determined when the duration of the fourteenth waning lunar day of the current soli-lunar month includes midnight local time. Thus MahāŚivarātri is celebrated on the night of 28th February 2022 coinciding with soli-lunar month of Māgha-kr̥ṣṇa-caturdaśi in California. \nMeditating on this auspicious evening and through the night is a practice of alertness meant to supersede the daytime awake state as a memorable experience. In such a vigilant state there exists the possibility of understanding the play of time and timelessness. \nThis night is dedicated to the Lord of Time\, Śiva – who is also known as the Mahākāleśwara. The great Lord Śiva is said to be dancing while sounding his drumbeat to the tune of dissolution. Through his dance of death\, he is urging us not to waste time and reminding us that time is most precious. He beckons us to utilize the time mindfully before death. \nLord Śiva is said to be lingotbhava – or emerging out of a lingam thereby manifesting from a ellipsoidal symbol of time capsule. The lingam is also a symbol of life burgeoning and blossoming in time. The Sanskrit heritage points to the entry of Śivatattwa (essential principle of Śiva) into the earthly waters in the form of an elongated cylindrical-ellipsoidal asteroid which then gave rise to the nucleotide bases upon reacting with water. During this Fellowship\, His Holiness will reveal some of the riveting mysteries through the selected audio-visual clips during his message about the significance of this night. \nWe will be streaming via live video on Zoom from Santa Barbara\, California. You will gain access to the Zoom Fellowship through your Eventbrite account page. In order to receive support for technical issues while logging in\, you must log in early and not wait until the last minute to register. \nAll participants are required to join with their video turned on if they wish to receive blessings from His Holiness\, unless there is a technical difficulty that has been communicated to staff in advance. \nLogin 10 minutes ahead of the fellowship start time so you have time to adjust your webcam and other settings. We strongly urge your video presence as per our format\, as His Holiness will be calling the name of the family upon seeing each participant on video. \nWhen registering\, your will be prompted to include the full first and last name spelled out for those in your immediate household who will be present and joining you on camera for the blessing. \nRegistration is free\, with options to donate. We deeply appreciate your love donations. \nIf you would like to participate or invite others to participate please email events@vps92644.inmotionhosting.com.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

HH Swami Vidyadhishananda will lead prayer\, mantra chanting and a silent contemplation as we remember this great soul and realized spiritual master. \nIn addition\, feel the impact of sublime Sanskrit chanting and darshan blessings. The livestream fellowship will conclude with vespers (ārati). We will be streaming live from Santa Barbara\, California.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nRemembering HH Swami Atmananda\nSwami Atmananda took his monastic vows from Swami Maheshananda Giri in 1968 and joined the Giri order of Vedic monks. He moved into the seat of Sanskrit learning\, Varanasi thereafter for his reclusive contemplation. He lived a uniquely monastic lifestyle in that he only took alms once a day and spent rest of his mornings and evening dedicated to the practice of higher yoga and deep study of advanced Sanskrit literature. Over time the families who invited him for once a day alms (lunch) swelled up to a thousand\, thereby making each family wait longer for his darshan and fellowship. \nHe was seen to exhibit extraordinary floating and swimming abilities while taking his daily ablutions in river Ganga. As he primarily walked everywhere and comforted all passersby with his compassion\, he became well known as Prabhuji (alike the Lord) of Varanasi. Even the irate bulls of Varanasi understood Prabhuji and yielded way to him whenever their paths crossed. \nAs part of the Hansavedas Monastic Council\, HH Swami Atmanananda maintained the Hari Bhawan Sanskrit Rare Books Library in Varanasi\, India. He was involved in the council over a period of two decades advising about the translation and research work on Sanskrit literature as well as assisting with the structure of holistic curriculum. \nMany devotees had the opportunity to travel to Varanasi\, India to sit at the feet of HH Swami Atmananda and often remarked that Prabhuji was an institution in himself. All devotees were impressed by the oratory skills of Prabhuji and how quickly he could spiritually resolve dilemmas. We are sure that his inspiring presence and gifts of wisdom will carry on as we continue to build upon his legacy and incredible contribution to the noble cause of our Nonprofit sangha.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nAccessing the Livestream\nAfter registering you will receive a confirmation email with the link and password necessary to view.

He will also discuss how to make peace with oneself\, and face life using a positive outlook rooted in a meditative lifestyle. \nAfter registering you will receive a confirmation email with the link and password necessary to view both class sessions.

SUMMARY:Hansarūpin Foundation Day Fellowship
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][distance][vc_btn title=”Register” style=”custom” custom_background=”#4e86c4″ custom_text=”#ffffff” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fhansarupin-foundation-day-fellowship-tickets-44466411233||target:%20_blank|”][vc_column_text]Join our spiritual sangha on the auspicious day of axaya-tritiyā to honour and celebrate Self Enquiry Life Fellowship’s foundation day with spiritual founder His Holiness Swami Vidyadhishananda. His Holiness will share words of wisdom\, sublime chanting\, ceremonial vespers and blessings and share the Nonprofit’s vision for the upcoming eight years. See rare photos and access our new publications. Members of our Board of Directors will be present to celebrate and commemorate the Nonprofit’s founding. We will share in tea and an Ayurvedic snack toward the end of the evening fellowship. \nAxaya-tritiyā or the third day of the ascending moon is the birthday of Shukrāchārya (Lord Venus) as well as the highly learned warrior Lord Parashurāma. This day is more significant to those who are interested in Jyotisha (science of light and heavenly bodies) as the day when great sage Bhrigu rishi completed his compendium on Jyotisha known as Bhrigu-samhitā. Every noble act on this day is said to be at least tripled in results and traditionally this day has been revered as one with immortal virtuosity. \nA closer look at the divine legacy of axaya-tritiyā reveals to us that all three events ascribed to this day are related to sage Bhrigu. While Venus (the ruling Lord of planet Venus) is hailed to be the son of sage Bhrigu\, Lord Parashurāma also took birth in the familial lineage of sage Bhrigu. In essence the day is a divine remembrance of sage Bhrigu who is hailed in the Sanskrit lore as the one with sārupya-moxa or the great seer (rishi) who can imitate and look like the compassionate overlord of our solar system! In the spiritual philosophy classic of Bhagavad-Gitā\, Lord Krishna declares that among the sages he is Bhrigu\, as it were\, thus conferring the highest seer status on Bhrigu. \nRegistration & Donation\nYour registration covers the expense of the catered snack and ceremonial items. If you wish to make a charitable\, tax-deductible donation to support this program and the Nonprofit’s curriculum\, there will be an opportunity to do so during registration or in-person at the fellowship.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
