A map of the enlightened mind
Entering the Greatest Story of Spiritual Awakening
How do we end suffering in the world?
Over 2,500 years ago, a young prince was confronted for the first time with the timeless reality of illness, old age and death. Siddharta Gautama decided to leave behind his previous life, wealth, power and family, to devote himself completely to one thing: To find a way to free himself from suffering.
Thus began a path of seeking, learning from various teachers, living at times in the forest as an ascetic, meditating intensely, and finally attaining enlightenment one night under a Bodhi tree. A Buddha was born.
The story of the Buddha is the most famous story of spiritual awakening.
But can we learn from it today, as seekers of truth in the 21st century?
The word “Buddha” itself is a metaphor. It means the awakened one.
When approached in the right way, the story of the Buddha becomes a map of spiritual awakening. For the reality of impermanence, of age, death and rebirth is, in essence, timeless. In what ways did Siddharta meditate, how did he confront fears, desires, and obstacles – and finally become free of them all?
At the heart of this retreat is this unique story of awakening, as passed down in the Pali Canon. The journey of a person who became a Buddha in search of knowledge and truth.
The retreat is supported by deep silence, nurturing nature, and the original meditations Buddha himself taught. It is an invitation to sit with Siddharta under the Bodhi tree, to penetrate the cycle of illusion and suffering within us, to become free and to dive hand in hand with the Buddha into the reality of spiritual awakening.
Breathing Mindfully with the Buddha
A Complete Path to Enlightenment
Mindfulness is one of the most popular meditations of our time. With a focus on stress reduction, it has made inroads into healthcare.
And while mindfulness meditation certainly has many positive effects on our health and well-being, its original depth and liberating power is little known.
Indeed, for the Buddha, mindfulness was a complete path to enlightenment. A meditation that leads into ever deeper awareness of body and mind. In this retreat we want to explore the deeper aspects of mindfulness in depth.
Therefore, mindfulness as a path to enlightenment will be the main practice. We will practice mindfulness not only in the meditation hall, but also in the forest, just like the Buddha himself.
A second practice that the Buddha considered essential for spiritual liberation is loving-kindness meditation. Gradually, it activates the heart, allowing it to become wider and include more and more sentient beings in compassion.
In this combination of deep awareness in body and mind, and an ever-widening and all-encompassing heart, a complete path of spiritual awakening emerges.
WHAT AWAITS YOU
In the Retreat we will Learn:
How the Buddha moved through his dark night of the soul, his doubts, his confusions, and what we can learn from it for our own process.
Mindfulness of breathing and loving kindness the way the Buddha taught it as a complete path to spiritual enlightenment.
Inner Fire Meditation that allows us quantum leaps in our experience and understanding.
Deep silence and nature, which create the perfect conditions for contemplation, meditation and spiritual awakening.

"My personal transformation process was an immense opening to the inner source."
“My personal transformation process was an immense opening to the inner source.
This connectedness, from which I can draw at any time in order to give, is probably the most sacred thing I have realised. I have experienced so much peace in my being that emotions no longer take up so much space. I react much more calmly and clearly when a storm breaks in from the outside. Decisions are no longer based on offended ego, but in compassion and peace.
I would definitely recommend this training. This training is key and there is probably no one who could not use this kind of healing. Especially now in this time when there is a global awakening going on.”

"It is a haven for true seekers of truth and transformation."
“The meditation retreats with Shai Tubali had been one of the greatest engines of true spiritual transformation for me, combining profound spiritual wisdom, with crystal clear guidance, imbued with depth and inspiration. Shai is a true master of spirit, and the atmosphere in the retreats is highly supportive and well thought through- it is evident that every little detail is taken into consideration, in order to create a highly transformative and empowering spiritual field. It is a haven for true seekers of truth and transformation.”
Dr. Bettina Preney
"It is a wonderful intimate journey to oneSelf. "
Bathing in Shai’s pure Energy, we are cleansing and purifying ourselves – like in a bath of Light.
Especially his powerful Life-Force-Meditations let us experience the Unity we are – since I am sure that there are no real boundaries between us – that we are all this flowing Life-Energy.
Really, that gives such happiness!
In the time between the meetings with Shai, we can walk in beautiful landscapes, Yoga-exercises are proposed, Dynamic Meditation – and last not least, we have delicious vegan food.
So, I’m really grateful that I can participate in this new Retreat 2023, thank you for organizing such beautiful events!

"The summer retreat prepares every participant to a possible spiritual awakening, which has happened to me several times during the retreats."
A summer retreat with the enlightened Kundalini Master Shai Tubali is an extraordinary opportunity to merge into the essence of deep silence. To be in silence is more than calming down from the stress of our high demanding and overactive postmodern society. Beyond the psycho-somatic regeneration the subtle energetic systems are stimulated, which leads to unblocking energy blockages and enables it’s free flow from in- and outside to the body-mind-complex.
Satsang, guided meditations, body work, creative writing, music, dance and walks in nature etc. support this process. The summer retreat prepares every participant to a possible spiritual awakening, which has happened to me several times during the retreats. Spiritual awakening is often expressed though strong, even overwhelming feelings of love, compassion, devotion, serenity, bliss, freedom and oneness. One peak experience was merging with the abyss of divinity where oneness can be felt as an orgiastic ecstasy. For me the retreats with Shai Tubali are life changing. Life has gained a new meaning and the sense for beauty has been sharpened. A non-reversible and ongoing process of development and integration has been initiated. I just can express my gratitude and recommend to every interested person to try this wonderfully life changing opportunity.
With love
