Online Silent Retreats
Online meditation, yoga and satsang. Live and recorded sessions from Amritapuri, India.
Amma has asked that Amrita Silent Retreats be made available online for her devotees around the world. She has been consistently encouraging us to maintain our daily spiritual practice, to accept the present moment with gratitude, to pray and meditate for world peace, and to remain optimistic and self-confident. This online program provides a way for participants to connect with Amma in a palpable way. As Amma herself often reminds us, “where there is love, there is no distance.” All sessions will be broadcast live from Amritapuri.
Some special retreats can also be joined in person in Amma’s centers in Europe.

Amrita Virtual Academy (AVA)
The Amrita Virtual Academy is an initiative to take the unique talent, know-how and wisdom that exists around Amma, and make it available to a broader audience, via online platforms.
What makes AVA different is that all the content is inspired by Amma, her teachings and the example of her life of selfless service. Thus, the content is based on Amma’s core values of service to the needy, world peace through inner peace, and living in harmony with Mother Nature. All of the instructors are volunteers and the proceeds go towards Amma’s charitable activities worldwide.
