Bhakti Immersion Retreat

24–29 March 2026 · Rishikesh

You’ve felt it. Now come understand it.

6 Days to Turn Inspiration Into a Practice You Can Actually Keep

You’ve been to kirtan. Something opened in you. And ever since, a quiet part of you has been wondering — what is this path, and how do I actually walk it?

Bhakti Immersion is a 6-day experiential retreat in Rishikesh for seekers who have tasted devotion and are ready to go deeper — not just feel it, but understand it, practice it, and bring it home.

about the retreat

More Than an Introduction. A Real Beginning.

Most people encounter Bhakti through a kirtan night or a yoga class and feel genuinely moved — and then don’t know what to do next. This retreat is built for exactly that moment.

Over 6 days, you won’t just learn about Bhakti. You’ll live it. Through mantra, kirtan, devotional practices, sacred experiences, and real community — you’ll discover what Bhakti actually is, what it feels like to practice it, and which parts of the path resonate most deeply with you.

You’ll leave with more than a spiritual experience. You’ll leave with a practice that’s yours.

Ideal for new seekers and curious yogis. No prior experience required — just an open heart.

why this is different

This Isn’t a Lecture Series. It’s a Living Immersion.

Bhakti immersion session

Bhakti has many flavors — devotional music, sacred ritual, service, chanting, community, presence. Most people only encounter one or two. Here, over six days, you experience the full picture.

Each day is designed to move through you — not just inform your mind but open your heart. Through workshops, sacred sound, devotional practices, holy place visits, and shared moments that stay with you long after you’ve left Rishikesh.

By the end, you won’t be wondering what Bhakti is anymore. You’ll have felt it from the inside.

daily rhythm

A Day in the Retreat

Each day has its own rhythm. Its own flavor.

Early Morning

Devotional Start

The day begins before the world gets loud. Yoga, japa meditation, Guru Puja, kirtan. A devotional start that grounds everything that follows.

Morning

Wisdom Sessions

Wisdom sessions that don’t stay in your head. Practical, honest, interactive — guidance you can actually use, with space to ask anything.

Late Morning

Hands-On Workshops

This is where Bhakti becomes real. Kirtan, mantra, devotional movement, sattvik cooking, sacred ritual, deity worship, devotional arts. You don’t watch — you participate. You discover what resonates.

Afternoon

Sacred Outings & Seva

Seva, sacred outings, holy place visits — Triveni Ghat, Ganga Aarti, moments that remind you why you came to Rishikesh in the first place.

Evening

Kirtan & Gatherings

Kirtan, devotional gatherings, festival-style programs. The kind of evenings you’ll be telling people about when you get home.

hands-on learning

Workshops & Experiential Learning

Bhakti Immersion includes a wide variety of hands-on workshops and practical sessions so participants can experience Bhakti through different forms of expression.

Elements of Bhakti workshop
Prayers and bhajans workshop
Kirtan workshop
Dance workshop
Sattvik cooking workshop
Deity worship workshop
Flower plucking and devotional preparation
Sacred space / hall arrangement as devotional service

sacred moments

Sacred Experiences

Sacred river ceremony with flower petals

Rishikesh isn’t just the location. It’s part of the practice.

Evening Ganga Aarti at the river
Chanting at Triveni Ghat
Festival-style devotional evenings
Sacred space preparation as an act of devotion
Group opening and closing ceremonies

These moments often become the ones people remember most — where Bhakti stopped being a concept and became something they could feel in their whole body.

your takeaway

What You’ll Leave With

Prasad served with care during the retreat

Not a spiritual high that fades on the plane home.

A real understanding of what Bhakti is — where it comes from, why it moves you, how it works.
A simple daily practice you can actually sustain when real life resumes.
A living experience of Bhakti’s many forms — so you know which practices belong to you.
A community of like-minded yogis who are walking the same path.
And the knowledge that this is just the beginning.

for you

Who Is This Retreat For?

You’ve been to kirtan and felt something real — but you’re not sure what to do with it outside of the event.
You practice yoga and love the philosophy — but your heart feels like it hasn’t fully come online yet.
You’re curious about Bhakti, drawn to devotion, and ready for more than inspiration — you’re ready for an actual practice.
You’re not a beginner to seeking. You’re a beginner to this path. And you’re ready to walk it properly.

That space between feeling it and knowing how to live it? This retreat is the bridge.
