“The quieter you become, the more you can hear.”

The Local Asheville Yatra, held June 19-22, 2025, is a sacred gathering in the Blue Ridge Mountains, honoring the summer solstice as a time of reflection, renewal, and devotion.

This pilgrimage invites us to deepen our practice through connection with Satsang, meditation, Kirtan, and quiet communion with nature. As the longest days of the year fill the mountains with light, we come together to chant, walk, and sit in stillness, allowing the natural world to guide our inner unfolding.

Through forest walks, fire Puja, and shared practice, this Yatra offers a chance to step away from daily life and move into the heart of presence, supported by the land and the love of the Satsang.
