San Francisco (USA): Brahma Kumaris Meditation Center in San Francisco (USA) hosted Guided Silence Day Retreats in the past few months.
The meaningful retreat topics such as ‘Healing Power of Love’, ‘Out of the Head, Into the Heart’, ‘Transforming Anxiety’ attracted many young and experienced professionals to come in-person.
The facilitators Br. Harsha, Sr. Sukanya, Sr. Kyoko and Dr. Vinod guided the participants into deeper levels of consciousness and their connection to the Divine. It was easy for the participants to get in touch with their inner core and manage their emotions well as they meditated with live harp music by Sr. Kyoko and journaled their experiences.
Eating sattvic vegetarian food and snacks in silence was a unique experience for many.
Participants were very happy to have found a space that hosts Silence Retreats in the city without traveling far distance.
Feedback from some participants:
“The ambience of the meditation center, the peaceful, pure vibrations here provided a space for my inner healing.”
“Now I feel, it is possible to bring a change in myself without being stressed out. I would like to spend more time exploring in the experience of silence.”
“I feel very relaxed with the guided meditation with music. My commitment to myself: 15 minutes meditation every morning. “
“I realize – When we work to change ourselves, we influence others to do the same. “
“I experienced a deeper sense of connection to the self. My vision of light was more present and it felt as a validation of subconscious memory from the past. “
“I realized that ‘true’ power comes from within and can never be taken away.”
