Mantra and Meditation: An International Residential Retreat, Camaldoli, Italy

“Mantra is a means, meditation is a method…”
“…mantra and meditation are inseparable just like two sides of the same coin.” – Swami Rama
Swami Veda Bharati has repeatedly emphasised the importance of a solid and stable meditation foundation in order to allow our personal practice to progress towards subtler levels.
During this retreat, the expert guidance of Swami Ritavan Bharati will introduce us to the importance of the mantra in the meditative practice and will accompany us in refining, fine tuning and deepening the use of the mantra, to progress to more profound and subtler levels.
The retreat is recommended to both, beginners and experienced practitioners, and will be held from Thursday 22 to Sunday 25 May 2025, at L’Oasi del Divin Maestro, Camaldoli, Italy.
“The mantra is a powerpack contained within itself, and, like an atom, is a whole vibrant universe”. Swami Veda Bharati
