It will be held at what is considered to be one of the most powerful spiritually charged sites in India, at the foot of the sacred mountain Arunachala, where liberation is said to be possible in an instant. The liberating, transmutational presence of the mountain is experienced as a holy fire, a force of nature that is mystically and mysteriously so omnipresent. It pulls apart the scaffolding of the Ego, burns through the lies of our fixation and steals away our minds. Ancient lore has it that this mountain is the very feet of Shiva (where the fire burns brightest and hottest)  A fire which dances on the dwarf of fixation and destroys the illusion of ego.

It is also the holy mountain where one of Indias’s most revered modern day saints, Sri Ramana Maharishi, realized enlightenment and lived out his life in the silent all pervasive freedom of enlightenment .Even though he left his physical form in 1950,   his presence is still so palpably powerful and omnipresent that over 6 million people a year come to pay homage to his shrine and to immerse themselves in his enlightened awareness that continues to permeate the whole region. It was at his feet that Papaji, the master that has been so influential in Brandon’s  spiritual journey realized enlightenment.
