Please read carefully - and save the link to this page for future reference.

In Person Information:

We look forward to seeing you Friday morning at 9 am, at the Gyuto Foundation Center, 6401 Bernhard Ave., in the Richmond Hills.

We'll be having a music event on Friday night and a dance performance on Saturday night after the evening class, so hopefully you can stay for that.

• Please allow time for traffic, as we start promptly at 9 am. From the parking lot, you'll see a covered area near the left end of the building. The white door is the direct entrance to our shoe room and meeting hall.
• You will be given a black/white copy of the workbook to use. Bring a pen to take notes if you wish.
• Tea and light snacks are provided. We provide a list of local restaurants for meals. 
• See the instructions, below, on how to watch on-demand. The replay will be available to you to review or to watch if you can't attend every meeting in person.

For Those New to Nathaji's Practice

• Before the retreat starts, be sure to view this 13-minute video that explains the nature of Nathaji's open-eye Śakti transmission class.
• If you have time, you're invited to watch a more-in-depth video about the practice.
• You may also wish to do this basic half-hour meditation to prepare yourself for the more advanced meditations that will be given during the retreat.

• We recommend viewing on a large screen rather than a phone, if possible.
• Q&A will be available through chat - someone will read your question/comment as time allows. (You will need to exit "full-screen" to view the chat window.)
• Please see the schedule at the bottom of this page. The video-stream will be continuous throughout each time block. 
• Refresh your window for each new session (or if there is any unforeseen interruption in the feed).

• Recordings will be posted soon after the completion of each session (see schedule, below)
• They will be listed in order of presentation, with date and "morning," "afternoon," etc, listed so you can find what you wish to (re)view.

Student Resources

• In this Google Drive Folder you'll find a color pdf of the workbook. You're welcome to download it for your own use - although you will be given a black & white copy at the retreat. 
• Any edited guided meditations will be posted here as well, soon after the retreat ends.
