Brahmins from Moscow and far away cities from Russia joined the retreat to experience an atmosphere of Madhuban and gain a new, unforgettable experience.Programme opened with the Powerful class by Sudha Didi.&nbsp; Theme: "How to be the Bestower like the Father". "To bestow means to receive". Brother Vijay conducted the closing session on "Serving with Mind". One hour each class of experience on the themes, Q&amp;A sessions, drishti, toli, blessings and much more.From the very beginning of the retreat, we had the opportunity to demonstrate our role as givers: we became acquainted with a new spiritual self, opened our hearts to each other, and shared thoughts about the state of giving. Everyday ruh rihan and churning of daily murli in groups, sharing the experiences of being in Madhuban, creative group work, and listening to our sisters about love stories with Baba. One full day practice of deep soul conscious silence including Amrit Vela pilgrimage through the places as in Madhuban. Experiments with yoga. Practice of giving drishti. Madhuban experience: why Madhuban pulls the soul, which special efforts are expected to be done in Madhuban, feeling of difference between Sakar and Avyakt BapDada, what did you bring from Madhuban. Mayak Mira park also brought us a Madhuban feeling while we had a Creative task on Image of the bestower, sharing history of spiritual love, blessing the Elements of Nature. Ofcourse, regular morning exercises, vegetable cutting as in Madhuban, Madhuban tea and light BrahmaBhoj in silence, etc. remained eternally in our hearts.The retreat program utilized materials and exercises that the Brahmins brought from Madhuban this season. Every day was filled with joy and ecstasy through the spiritual interaction among the members of the retreat, and of course Baba's company and ancestors' subtle presence.This experience of Madhuban will remain in our hearts forever.

Call of the Time Held in Nairobi in May 2026

REPORT: Call of the Time Experiments-in-Silence Retreat The Global Retreat Centre, Oxfordshire, UK6-10 May 2026Silence is the most universal portal in all traditions to the path – beyond dogma, beliefs and sacraments - it just is. Peter Senge<figure class="image"><img src="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Report_COTT_1_a189564b53.jpg" alt="Report_COTT_1.jpg" srcset="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/thumbnail_Report_COTT_1_a189564b53.jpg 208w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/small_Report_COTT_1_a189564b53.jpg 500w," sizes="100vw" width="500px"></figure>The Call-of-the-Time (COTT) Experiments-in-Silence Retreat took place at the Global Retreat Centre near Oxford, UK, from 6-10 May. The retreat was led by Peter Senge, a Senior Lecturer at MIT in the US, and Sister Jayanti, and facilitated by Sister Judy of New York. There were 22 international participants - from Belgium, Iceland, Japan, the Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden, and the UK. The days unfolded with a gentle combination of spiritual input, personal time for reflection, collective meditation, and meals in silence. Following a brief check-in on Wednesday evening, the retreat moved straight into silence. Each day began with an optional amrit vela, which quite a few guests joined. At 6:00 am, there were silent stretches in front of the house, led by Sister Marneta. Then, after some meditation together, Sister Jayanti gave a talk on a specific theme, such as the soul, connecting with the Divine, the Home, and integrating spiritual practice in daily life, followed by more collective meditation. Every evening, Peter gave a short talk, translating spiritual concepts into everyday language. This year with both check-ins and check-outs we experimented with small group discussions before whole group dialogue, which worked well. It seemed to allow people to speak more freely and authentically.<figure class="image"><img src="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Report_COTT_2_ecac00ef4f.jpg" alt="Report_COTT_2.jpg" srcset="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/thumbnail_Report_COTT_2_ecac00ef4f.jpg 245w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/small_Report_COTT_2_ecac00ef4f.jpg 500w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/medium_Report_COTT_2_ecac00ef4f.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw" width="750px"></figure>The retreat was held by a team of BKs – Sr Julia (NY), Sr Luciana Rossi (Brazil), Sr Carolin (Germany) and Sr Rachel (UK). Brother Jonathan from Sheffield offered interludes of beautiful piano music throughout. He also performed at the intimate ‘Family Night’ session after meditation on the final evening, in which many offered poems, songs, and readings close to their heart, reflecting what had been shared and experienced over the previous few days. The house, garden, kitchen, and support teams of the Global Retreat Centre all contributed hugely in a most unlimited way to the experience, and nature, also - with the abundance of May and unexpectedly good weather too. Om shanti.<figure class="image"><img src="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Report_COTT_3_1dddc8c6da.jpg" alt="Report_COTT_3.jpg" srcset="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/thumbnail_Report_COTT_3_1dddc8c6da.jpg 199w," sizes="100vw" width="199px"></figure>Please download the full report <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Report_COTT_e8d2c6b431.pdf">click here.</a>
