There is a kind of prayer that is not meant to accompany our life, but to transform it. It does not begin with a prayer book, but with a shift in consciousness. Nor does this kind of prayer evolve from the ‘I’— with its needs and desires. Rather, it is the ‘I’ that is evolved—through a revelation encountered during the prayer.

Through rare teachings from ancient Kabbalistic texts and oral transmissions, you’ll experience the unfolding of refined inner states that awaken a deeper perception of our inner life and the nature of the divine. Through these practices, the secret steps mystics once took to journey between states of consciousness are gently unveiled. The path culminates in the state of consciousness in which a life-opening revelation arises, which can reorient both our inner and outer worlds.

This retreat offers direct experience, guiding consciousness beyond the known into richer, more intricate ways of living and being. The 1st evening introduces and provides a taste of the different states. The 2nd day provides deeper experiences of each state and tools to explore them on your own. For more information about Dana Ganihar and Rabbi Baruch Brenner, visit their website: https://shakio-in.com/
