Mantra and Transformation Navaratri Sadhana Retreat
With Guest Swami Muktimurti
Navaratri is a nine day period of astrological significance, in which it is deemed most auspicious to do spiritual practice (or 'sadhana'). Join us as a participant for our Navaratri sadhana using mantra, meditation, karma yoga and fire ceremonies to purify the mind, energize the body and reconnect with spirit.
Traditionally the sadhana for Navaratri involves extensive chanting from the Vedic scriptures, mainly in praise of the many forms of the Divine Mother, and also Lord Rama, who, with the help of the Divine Mother, was able to vanquish the demon king, symbolizing our own inner battle with negativity. It is a powerful time for personal transformation, a time for reflection and opportunity to connect with your inner self.
It is said that an hour of sadhana during this time is worth 100 hours of sadhana at any other time.
The daily Navaratri sadhana will involve 3 hours of karma yoga (work with meditative awareness). There will be a light diet during this period and we will practice periods of mouna (silence) throughout. We will have our usual daily schedule during this time, alongside extra sessions of chanting and other practices.
Guest Swami Muktimurti
Swami Muktimurti has been living in the Satyananda Yoga ashrams in both Australia and India since the 1970s and is well known for her singing. She has pursued a deep interest in music for the past 30 years, incorporating her background in devotional singing (kirtan, bhajan and stotram), mantra, classical North Indian music, and her love of music and chanting in general into an experiential perspective on the practices of Nada Yoga, the yoga of sound.

Practice a little yoga that is likely to get you laughing. Experience ancient practices of yoga and meditation that will connect you with the quality of Light within.
This retreat gives the opportunity to experience the feel-good effect of endorphins released through the act of laughing, helping not only to strengthen the immune system, reduce stress (balancing the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems), but also slow the aging process. |

Breath is the vehicle of the life energy or prana. By becoming more attuned to our own breath, we become more connected to this life energy which sustains us. The practices of pranayama help us expand our capacity to flow with this life force - in turn helping us to maintain a healthy body and mind. They also help us become more aware of the increasingly subtle layers of our existence. This retreat will apply yogic practices focused on the breath:
to deepen awareness of and connectedness with the breath;
to breathe in a way that nourishes and sustains well-being of body and mind;
to develop increasing control of breath and and also of mind. |

"Yoga is the absolute mastery over the functions of the mind;
yoga is absolute equilibrium and equipoise in any situation.
Yoga is the ability to experience
what we have not experienced up to now."
Swami Satyananda Saraswati
Karma yoga expresses itself as yoga in action. In this, we endeavour to bring the increasing awareness that is developed through the practices of asana (postures), pranayama (breathing) and meditation, into our day to day actions. We endeavour to act with awareness and with equanimity, allowing the positive aspects of nature to be revealed. In selfless service, we learn how to act without attachment to the success or failure of our actions and in this process, conditioned patterns of thinking and behaviour can be observed.
This retreat gives space for experiencing the practice of karma yoga, learning skills for mindful and sustainable living and also allows contribution (3 hours per day) to the work of Parito. Yoga and meditation practices that increase connectedness with the heart and develop the capacity for more alignment between the heart, the hands and the head, will also be given. |
