Location, Accommodation & Food
Location
The in-person retreats will take place in Parvathy Baul's Sanatan Siddhashram in Birbhum District, West Bengal (India), about 15km from Shantiniketan.
The ashram is located in a natural ambience. If you have allergies with plants, animals or insects please let us know in advance, we will try to help you in the best way we can.
As the Gurukul is still growing, we will have only basic facilities.
Nearest airports are Kolkata and Durgapur.
Please plan to arrive one day before the start of the retreat and to leave the day after the retreat ends.
We can help with more detailed travel info and arrangements after you have applied.
Accommodation
As the ashram is still under construction, participants will stay at a guesthouse in Shantiniketan and travel daily to Sanatan Siddhashram, our learning space.
Daily travel between the guesthouses and the ashram is arranged by us.
The guesthouse is a moderate setup with basic facilities and western toilets. Rooms will be on shared basis (2-3 people to share a room). On request and additional fee a single room may be possible, however this is first come first serve.
Food
Food will be simple, sattvik and vegetarian/vegan without onions or garlic – ashram food mostly grown at the ashram.
The food will be prepared at the ashram and we will all eat together. If you have any special requirements or food allergies, please let us know in advance.
