Retreat with Ajit
1-3 December 2023
Ajiit holds retreats regularly in the Mauna House.The retreats provide the opportunity to get away from the routine of everyday life and focus intensively on knowing ourselves on a deeper level. Ajiit's presence and the calm surroundings will help to quieten the body and mind and direct the attention inside.As the body and mind calms down, there is space for guiding the attention inside and starting to inquire the true nature of our Being. With Ajiit's guidance we get clear directions for our Self-investigation and become more and more established on the spiritual journey.
As we get closer to discovering who we really are beyond the picture we know and believe about ourselves, more and more space, freedom and joy fills our life.
The program of the retreats starts everyday with Jiaido movement meditation practice designed by Ajiit to bring the attention to the Here and Now. Twice daily we gather for meetings with Ajit, where you can bring up your questions and share. Delicious vegetarian meals are prepared together for lunch and dinner.
Date: 1-3 December 2023

Ajiit and the community of Mauna House would like to invite you for a joyful celebration of Yalda Night and Christmas in December at Mauna House.
The occasion for this celebration is closely related to the cycle of life, and is also a reminder for all human beings not to forget their own true nature: Light.
Yalda, which means birth, is an ancient festival, celebrating the birth of light, the renewal of the sun and the victory of light over darkness. Early Christians linked the birth of Jesus to this special night.
After the longest night of the year (21st of Dec), days become longer and darkness is defeated by light, wisdom and justice takes over, giving a reason to celebrate for all.
Christmas and Yalda are both celebrated in a similar fashion by staying up all night and celebrating it with family and friends, and eating special foods.
We invite you to spend this time with Ajiit and the community of Mauna House.
During these two days there will be time for intimate conversations and sharing, playing music, celebrating, creativity and a lot more.
You can join this festive event for both days or just one.
Please, arrive before 6 pm on the given day to have our dinner together and be part of the rich program.
We appreciate if you prepare a small delicious dish by yourself at home or in the House, which we will share together.
Date: December 20, 18:00 - December 22, 10:00, 2022
Venue: Mauna House, Hungary

Bodywork workshop - JIAIDO Ate
Ate is the art of conscious touch for releasing emotional and mental blocks. As a part of JIAIDO movement meditation system, it is based on conscious touch, breathing and focus in a harmonized manner.
It is a bodywork technique, but it is not a massage in its traditional sense, because the focus is only in 20% on the treatment of physical symptoms.
The focus of JIAIDO Ate is to enhance awareness; it brings the skill to all to experience a conscious, effortless and empty physical contact with another human being. It results in the release of emotional and mental blocks from the body, which are the barriers of our spiritual evolution; they are responsible for the feelings of separation and dissatisfaction in our lives.

Dance workshop
Dance is an important part of our self-expression. During the free dance workshops we awaken our creative energy by using our body to move to any music freely, without concepts and ideas about how it should be.
The workshop is a great opportunity to experience the meditative state in an active and cheerful way. -bb3b-136bad5cf58d_thinking mind and connect us to our being. As we focus on the music, on our movements, on the others in the room so we don't crash into anyone, we learn to pay attention to as many things at the same time as possible. In other words we learn to be entirely present while dancing, which is the key to joy and the sense of being alive.

Pottery workshop for kids
Learning to play with clay and making something beautiful out of it is a way to awaken our creativity. The energy of creativity is the essence of our being, therefore just by stimulating it we come closer to who we really are. Real art appears from the recognition of our true nature.
We can give so many things to our kids. But the best gift is always the joy of a beautiful experience. The goal of this pottery workshop is to make children relax and have fun while making something with their own hands. In this process they can explore and strengthen their creativity, to which they can connect any time later on.
The one day program is for kids between the ages of 7 and 12. As a parent you can stay here with your child, or can also leave him/her here for the workshop. There is no need for any previous knowledge or experience in pottery for participation.

Bee-keeping workshop
Bees are much more important in our lives than most people realize.
Without bees, life wouldn't be sustainable for too long on Earth as they are responsible for the pollination of so many plants. Learn more about these unique beings in our workshop!
Bees have always been appreciated even in ancient cultures for their remarkable qualities. They focus on their work without swaying, they don't idle around. They work individually and not for personal benefit, but for the good of the whole. Even though they can fly long distances for food, they always find the way back home.
And not least the honey they produce is a real blessing, a cure for several diseases. Their example is a direct teaching about the most important values a spiritual seeker needs to follow.
Dates are coming soon for 2022
