Welcome to the Body-Mind -Spirit Event of your lifetime... 28-29-30 October 2005 near Antigua - Guatemala hosted by Club de Aventureros y Deportistas Espirituales (C.A.D.E.)   Welcome to the Heart of the Americas... Welcome to the adventure of consciousness... Meditate and feel the energy where great ancestors of the Mayan Culture have left their legacies of Spirituality, culture and vision of the future. Since the Hurricane Stan has disrupted many roads and bridges, so far there is no access from Mexico that is reliable. Best is to fly. There is opportunity to do relief work in the backcountry of Guatemala. PLEASE HELP US ! We need you if you can come before the retreat.   Our theme in this program is to connect Body Mind and Spirit to experience ourselves in a new way through the teachings and practices of Ananda Marga. Consciousness appears to us to be in the mind, but without the body it cannot express itself. According to the maxim "As above so below" we will connect our awareness of health with the health of society at large. Both are interconnected. "The purification of afferent and efferent nerves is the first stage of realization" is one of the quotes of the founder Shrii Shrii Anandamurti indicating to us that the physical nervous system is at the heart of body-mind processes. By following how super-creative people and leaders live successfully and happily, we can also become extraordinary. It is a matter of vision,will, discipline and a balanced mind. Things that can be learned, practiced and acquired.   The program will include a daily routine of Yoga-asanas, Tai-chi and meditation. 2 Main workshops in the morning are : 1. Principles of successful people 2. Courage and social action In the afternoons there is chance to practice Tai-chi and do hikes around the area. The site is the beautiful mountain-range around Antigua. It can be cool/cold, so warm clothes could be needed. To bring a tent is recommended as there is only one dorm available.
