A 3-nights, 4-days residential Sufi retreat at Zorba the Buddha from 9-12 April 2026.
The journey begins with the poetry of Rumi, gently awakening your deepest longing. From there, you enter guided Sema (whirling meditation), where thought recedes and presence comes alive. Through Zikr (Sufi chanting), Sufi Sesshin and silent introspection, and the Sufi Dances of Universal Peace, you move into deeper states of awareness, devotion, and inner stillness.
The retreat also offers spaces for connection and celebration through sacred circles, meeting fellow seekers, Bhajan, Kirtan jamming, gibberish exercises, and an evening of ecstatic Sufi music, creating a complete immersion into the spirit, silence, and joy of the Sufi path.
