FREE Shishya Seva Week

June 18 - 22

Lokananda Retreat Center, Downingtown PA

Immerse yourself in the Ashram for five days of seva and other practices. Your support during our Seva Week makes a big difference. We need your loving help!

Your tuition, meals and housing are free. You’re staying in Lokananda and doing seva to support the program being presented. Your only costs are your travel expenses, and we can provide local transportation if you don’t have a car. 

Participating in Shishya Seva Week were days I'll never forget, days filled with enlightening moments. I value the connection to other Shishyas, to the Ashram, to Satguru Swami Nirmalananda. - Shelley Z.

You’ll be doing behind-the-scenes work but still get to participate in our daily practices, including the morning meditation and Guru Gita, as well as our evening resident satsang. 

You’ll have free time every day as well as the company of other Svaroopis when they are on recess from their program.

My meditations felt extra deep all week (both solo and with the group). Being steeped in the Shakti 24 hours a day felt like I was in a retreat. The seva was externally focused while the benefit was definitely internal. — Ellen M.

TAUGHT BY

Swami Nirmalananda heads all our programs and assigns seva opportunities. While she approves your registration and seva, you will be working with other staff and sevites in behind-the-scenes support.
