Welcome to the Curious Way Retreat

A three-week journey through reality in the middle of nature.

Activities are FREE of charge. Just cover your stay.

Curious Way: Why is the retreat free?

“After genuine non-dual realization, I simply see myself in you.
From that recognition, compassion arises naturally – not as a practice,
but as a fundamental quality of our shared being.

I couldn’t sell you something that is already yours.
I couldn’t deceive you or promise what cannot be given,
because there is no ‘you’ and ‘me’ – only this one life,
looking through different eyes.

The only reason I offer this retreat is simple:
I want you to see what I see – to hear what I hear,
the music of the Universe –
so you can stop running through life… and start to dance.”

Curious Way: The Journey

A three-week immersion – with an optional fourth week – to rest, see clearly, and remember what you are.
Each week unfolds naturally, moving from understanding, to silence, to integration, and finally into playful presence.

Are you curious enough to ask the real questions?

  • What is enlightenment?
  • Who – or what – am I?
  • What is the purpose of life?

Do you sometimes feel…

  • “What in hell is going on here? How did I end up on this planet – must be a mistake?”
  • “Something about life feels fundamentally wrong.”
  • “Even though I have everything, something is still missing.”
  • You don’t feel seen.

If you do, you’re not alone.

You don’t need to be anyone here – you can stop pretending.
I see you for what you truly are – the same life, looking back at me.

If you feel called to explore this, here is how the journey unfolds.

Week 1

Sat (Understanding)

See through the noise of teachings and traditions.
Discover what remains when beliefs, goals, and methods fall away.
Where ancient non-dual insight and modern science meet in clarity.

Week 2

Chit (Silence)

Seven days of quiet.
The mind slows, the senses open, and life reveals itself.
Meditation, yoga, and stillness – held by the beauty of nature.

Week 3

Ananda (Integration)

After stillness comes movement.
This week is for digestion – for allowing what was seen to settle and take root.
We return to life, to expression, to living fully -naturally, effortlessly.

Week 4

Lila (Play)

A week to rest, move, and simply be.
Life can be playful – without goals, expectations, or agendas.
Walk, create, linger in stillness, or explore freely – allowing your body, mind, and heart to fully settle.

“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”

 J.Krishnamurti
