The Bhagavad Gita’s Essential Keys to Inner Freedom

This Bhagavad Gita online retreat offers you the opportunity to explore one of yoga’s most enduring and practical guides — not as ancient philosophy to be studied at a distance, but as living wisdom you can begin to apply straight away.

Over two days and five hours of guided teaching, you will be gently led through some of the Gita’s most essential themes by an experienced Dru team. Whether you are new to this text or returning to it after some time, you may find this retreat opens something fresh.

What you’ll explore:

• Focus and freedom — where we place our attention is a quiet but profound choice; this retreat explores how to direct it in ways that support rather than restrict you
• The yoga of action (karma yoga) — how to act with care and engagement, without anxiety about outcomes
• The three gunas — the energetic qualities that shape our experience, and how understanding them can help you make choices that feel more balanced
• Sangha — spiritual community — why the path of yoga is not a solitary one, and how to find a community that supports your growth
• Mantra — how the conscious use of sound and intention can bring a steadier, more grounded perspective to daily life

The retreat includes satsangs (group teachings and reflection), guided exercises, and practical tools you can carry into your everyday life. Dru Professional Network members may also accrue 5 CPD hours for attending.

This retreat may suit you if:

• You are curious about the Bhagavad Gita and would like a guided introduction
• You practise yoga or meditation and wish to deepen the philosophical roots of your practice
• You are drawn to teachings on self-knowledge, action and inner freedom

Your guides for this Bhagavad Gita online retreat are Rita Goswami, Susan Kulas, Petra Opsteeg, Ruth Boaler, Evi Op de Beeck and Ned Hartfiel.

If this feels right for you, we’d love to welcome you.
