Retreat
Rishikesh
Three nights on the Ganga at the top of the plains, where the river leaves the hills. Cold mornings, long sittings, and the most straightforward introduction to what a residential practice feels like.

The daily structure
| When | What |
|---|---|
| Early morning | Practice before sunrise on the river. Breath, then a single concentration practice held long. |
| Mid morning | Asana, then the textual session. The sources read directly, with the Sanskrit. |
| Afternoon | Rest, or unstructured time by the river. |
| Evening | Long form practice, then silence until the following morning. |
