We invite you to an amazing retreat “
Spiritual Family School”, that will be held
from June 29 to July 1, 2018 in Latvia, in a picturesque natur place - Svetgrivas.
There is an opinion that family and its responsibilities are hindering true spiritual growth, distract from spiritual practice, however, from Vedic culture point of view, a man and a woman can walk through spiritual self-awareness together, without abandoning the activity, which accompanies family life. On the contrary, it is family life that contributes to the rejection of false ego, contributes to the development of better qualities and gain experience of unselfish service.
Retreat focuses on knowledge about pure life within the framework of a happy and successful family, that revives the true beauty of a woman and the greatness of a man.
In the retreat program:
- Spiritual family as it is.
- Journey of creating a family on a spiritual basis.
- Principles of relations in the family. Solving conflicts and overcoming crises.
