The wing holds its larger gatherings at Madhuban, near Mount Abu in Rajasthan — hills, clean air, and a silence most participants have not heard in years. This is not scenery for its own sake. A mind that has been running on noise needs somewhere the noise stops before it can notice what it has been carrying.

People describe the same sequence: a restless first evening, a long sleep, and then, on the second morning, a clarity that had nothing to do with the sessions.

What the surroundings do

They lower the volume. No traffic, no notifications, no reason to hurry. What is left is the mind, which is the point.

They restore proportion. A quarter’s target looks different from a hillside than it does from a desk. Neither view is false; most people only ever get one.

They make silence bearable. Alone in a city, silence feels like a fault. In a place built for it, held with hundreds of others, it becomes comfortable — and then valuable.

They hold the learning. A resolution made in these surroundings tends to survive the return, because it was made by a rested person rather than a tired one.

Nature does not hurry, and nothing is left undone.

Reflection and holistic learning

The retreats combine early-morning meditation, sessions through the day, and long unscheduled gaps — deliberately. The gaps are where the teaching settles. A programme filled end to end sends people home with notes; one with room in it sends them home changed.

Coming

The wing’s national conference is held at Madhuban each year, with shorter retreats between. Accommodation is simple and there is no fee. Dates are announced on this site and on the wing’s WhatsApp channel.
