If your heart has been longing for more beauty, intimacy, and truth in your spiritual path, this is your invitation...
A 7 Day Devotional Journey into Divine Relationship Archetypes
Bhakti is the path of sacred relationship. In the yogic tradition, the divine pairs—Saraswati & Brahma, Lakshmi & Vishnu, Radha & Krishna, Sita & Rama, Shiva & Parvati, and Shiva & Lalita—reveal profound teachings about love, devotion, balance, and awakening. Each partnership reflects sacred qualities that live within us and offer guidance for how we relate to the Divine, to ourselves, and to others.
Through sacred stories, mantra, kirtan, ritual, and embodied devotional practices, the Bhakti Beloved Retreat invites you on a journey into the heart of these teachings. Together we will explore how these archetypal energies awaken deeper love, compassion, wisdom, and connection in our lives.
Held at the sacred waters of Lake Atitlán at Villa Sumaya, this retreat is an opportunity to step out of your daily life and into a living experience of devotion and belovedship.
