Amrita Silent Retreats
Amrita Silent Retreats is a residential and online meditation retreat program based in Amritapuri, Kerala, India, that unites a global community committed to inner peace and spiritual growth.
Founded by Amma in 2015, the program offers silent retreats that include Ma-Om meditation, yoga, scriptural study, chanting, and prayer.
Our retreats, instructed by swamis and volunteers, are open to all—from beginning meditators to experienced practitioners.
All proceeds support Amma’s worldwide charities and help to uplift those in need.
The supreme truth can be only attained through faith and meditation.

Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali Retreat Chapter on Freedom; Kaivalya Pada
The Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali highlight the movements of the mind and point toward a freedom that does not depend on circumstance.
The Transformative Power of Silence
Why silence? Our energy is usually directed outward. Through silence, meditation, prayer, satsang, and yoga, our attention naturally turns inward. It is in the silence of the heart that true peace is born. Amma reminds us that spirituality is not just about personal well-being — it is through our collective practices that peace and harmony can return to the world.
For over ten years, Amrita Silent Retreats have supported seekers on this journey.
