PachaMama - Apartado #110,
Boca de Nosara, 5233, Nicoya, Guanacaste, COSTA RICA.
The phrase
Pacha Mama comes from the Incan language Quechua. It means
Mother Earth. Here, in this Costa Rican village, PachaMama
resonates the vibration of its namesake. It is a community
inspired by meditation, music, dance, and the creation of an
ecologically sustainable existance with mother earth. It is
a community that is active in exploring the heights of
consciousness through diet-raw food, cleansing and fasting,
silent retreats, therapy groups, body work, gardening, dance
and musical festivals. There is no specific doctrine,
philosophy, dogma or belief system practiced in PachaMama,
merely the gathering of individuals from different parts of
the world inspired by conscious alternatives to living.
Experience Satsang meetings with Tyohar. In these meetings
Tyohar responds to people's questions and sharings,
supporting the inner growth of each one. It is the
foundation of PachaMama, the very heart of Tyohar1s work. A
silent retreat is a unique gathering --- there are two daily
Satsangs with Tyohar, as well as a variety of meditations,
designed to support the participants in their journey from
the world of words. Every evening PachaMama takes an inner
shower by being in silence for one hour.
