Tucked away in the tranquil woodlands of Belgium, Koningsteen offers the perfect sanctuary for a 7-day retreat of deep stillness, gentle inquiry, and heartfelt connection. Once a 13th-century castle and later a hidden meeting place for lovers, its grounds still hold centuries of quiet stories among the trees.
Each day includes two sessions with Amoda and Kavi, gently weaving together silent and guided meditation, illuminating discourse, and intimate dialogue for deep inquiry and reflection. While Amoda offers the primary discourses and meditations, Kavi supports the teachings through his poetry and presence.
Between sessions, there’s spacious time to enjoy nourishing meals, walk the land, connect with others in unhurried moments, or rest in the beauty and simplicity of the surroundings. Evenings may bring spontaneous gatherings—poetry, music, or heartfelt conversation—held in a spirit of ease, intimacy, and joy.
Rooted in Amoda Maa’s teaching of open awareness and unconditional presence, this retreat offers a space to meet life as it is, without resistance. If you feel called to this path of inner freedom, you are warmly invited to join us.
