Programs
An Anveshan Yatra is a journey into the unknown. It is not just a physical travel from place to place, but an adventure through the unseen Self. There is no purpose of this travel, except to discover the hidden purpose for which each individual is born. The Yatra gives you time, space and support to take a walk through the corners of your mind that are conquered by fear. It is an exercise in defining your core values, find the substance that you are made of. Anveshan helps you to draw a life map and introspect on what you burn for.
What makes you, you? A transition from the fear of judgement to the courage for truth; Your truth. And once you have looked yourself in the eye, we will arm you with practices that you can carry back to continue the journey of self-discovery.

The Ganga Yatra is an exploration of the story and life of the River Ganga, from its source to the communities that lives along it shore; It is also a journey of self-exploration. During this journey of six weeks, young explorers delve in to the ecological, social, economic, spiritual, cultural, religious, historical and mythological perspective of this Holy River, as well as the sacred geography of their own inner terrain; their story, identity, wisdom and source of inner power in this fast-changing world.
Narmada is the longest of the only three rivers in India that flow from east to west. She is the lifeline of two big states, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat. Originating in Amarkantak and flowing into the Arabian Sea via Kutch, this river has carved her way through the rift valley between the Vindhya and Satpura range since times immemorial. Every year, pilgrims perform the "Narmada Parikrama”, circumambulating the river in hope of absorbing some of the powerful energy she is believed to radiate.
Along her journey, the Narmada graciously provides livelihood and water to many communities, including indigenous tribes who have made the forests along the river shore their home, their lives centred on the Spirit of the Narmada.
Over a span of fifteen days, The Narmada Yatra opens a window to the life of the river, its people and the diverse ecology it supports. It is an exploration of the people-centric Movements that the Narmada inspires along with the issues that threaten its sanctity today.
100 days of Self Discovery is our longest and most in-depth programme, especially designed for those who are looking for an awakening in their lives. Someone who may be at a cross-roads, wondering which path is destined for them to take. For those who are itching to explore and willing to find out and confront what they are truly afraid of.
The program begins with 10 days of orientation in Auroville, Tamil Nadu, the starting point of this journey. Here, we will introduce participants to exercises in self-discovery, setting the tone for the weeks to come. Together, we will indulge in Life Mapping, discovering not only each one's core values and inner wisdom but also their deep rooted fears. We will ask each other, “What is your passion?”
Then, we will travel to explore different projects in India, starting from the southern tip of Kanyakumari where the large seas bordering the Indian peninsula great the ocean, mingling in soft waves. We go to Rameshwaram along the west coast, where Hanuman and his army built the bridge to Sri Lanka. Slowly, we make our way up through Kerala, meeting the fishermen communities along the coast, to Hampi, a historical town now left in ruins with no less than a 101 heritage structures blending into the natural landscape.
We then go to meet the inspiring people of Ralegaon Siddhi in Yavatmal, Maharashtra, who have transformed their land and lives by developing rain water harvesting techniques and alternative energy.
Together we will explore authentic Goan heritage, visiting parts of the state which give a more intimate insight to its culture. Then, we continue to Gujarat to visit the communities of Kutch and see how they organise for disaster management and sustainable living. We will participate in a community program, such as drawing a social map or assisting to build community infrastructure as a way of contribution as well as to explore the passion within us.
We then travel to Udaipur to pay a visit to Swaraj University. From there onward to Delhi, to participate in community work in one of the largest metros in the country while interacting with Government officials.
Finally, we will visit Ladakh, a unique setting blessed with an outlandish landscape, where you will find yourself completely outside of your comfort zone, from the climate to the food and the culture. Here, we will interact with a nomadic tribe of Ladakh while working with them on a community project.
This program is an experiment in habit building and transformation. It is to practice taking a moment in this fast moving world to appreciate the positive aspects of life, to welcome the small joys that make our life experience valuable.
It is based on the theory that regularly practicing a small action for 21 days can make a change in the thought processes of a person. When this exercise is done in a larger group, the effect is magnified, each participant helping the other through the journey. Aligning oneself to the collective spirit of a group facilitates transformation. We all learn from each other's stories.
We have designed the program to cultivate in ourselves the universal values as defined by The Mother : Courage, Gratitude, Peace, Humility, Progress, Aspiration, Sincerity, Perseverance, Receptivity, Goodness, Generosity and Equality
Each programme is themed on one value and we hope that by imbibing small actions introduced during the 21 days in their day-to- day, participants are able to enhance the presence of that universal value in their lives.
Retreats are much-needed interventions in life to step back, take a break, and go into an introspective and reflective mode. The objective of these is to provide a safe space to space-out. To immerse in your inner Self with the aid of reflective group activities like discussion-circles, to connect with your own unique rhythm and dance with joy.
We all live in a world filled with stress, our own bubbles of worry that prevent us from connecting to the Universal Love. A Retreat is a time to unwind and re-kindle that fire within which sometimes starts to flicker against the tense storms of everyday life. Each Anveshan Retreat is three-five days of consciousness and appreciation for all the valuable gifts life blesses us with. These days do not have a fixed agenda, but are fluid moments to take long deep breaths and make space in your mind for a peace that can only exist within.
