Retreats

Our retreats go beyond the classroom, offering opportunities for cultural immersion. Immerse yourself in the local customs, traditions, and flavours of the destinations we visit. Experience the vibrant colours, rich history, and spiritual practices that deeply connect to the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita. Expand your horizons as you embrace the beauty of diverse cultures.

The Wellbeing 
Retreat

Complete wellbeing means to be aware, conscious and healthy in the mind, body and soul. We often focus on the body, seldom on the mind, and rarely on the soul. On this retreat, you will get a first hand experience of wellbeing on all these levels, and you’ll learn things that you can practice at home and take it all with you.

Karuna Bhavan, Scotland

Karuna Bhavan (Sanctuary of Peace) was formed in Scotland in 1987. It follows the concept of “simple living, high thinking”. People from different walks of life practice a more peaceful, loving and compassionate way of life. They also run the Krishna eco-farm which was opened in 2012. The farm is situated on 8-acre of land. They use the renewable source of energy for heating and usage of wind turbines and thereby helping to save the planet.
