Babaji Day Atma Kriya Yoga Retreat

Date November 28-30

Place Paranitya Narasimha Center | Elmira, NY

Celebrate Babaji Day

A weekend journey into the cave of your heart for Atma Kriya Yogis.

Whether you attended Soul Awakening, are new to Atma Kriya Yoga, or have been practicing for many years, this retreat offers a beautiful opportunity to deepen your sadhana, connect with fellow yogis, and refresh your practice with new life, love, and intention.

"Babaji's message is a message of love and unity. It's a message of reconciling one's self, one's mind with one's true self, the message of self-realization. And this message is very simple."

Paramahamsa Vishwananda

Celebrating the Father of Kriya Yoga

Mahavatar Babaji is an immortal yogi who appeared on Earth 5,000 years ago and lives in the Himalayas to this day.

More than 1800 years ago, He committed to stay in a physical body to help all of humanity attain enlightenment. As Paramahamsa Vishwananda’s guru, we celebrate Mahavatar Babaji’s contribution to Bhakti Marga and all of humanity.

This retreat is a chance to connect to Mahavatar Babaji, Guruji, and to the immortal yogi within you.

Return to the Heart of the Practice

Guided Practice

Guided sessions offer time to refresh and refine your Atma Kriya Yoga practice. With gentle guidance and the collective energy of the group, you’ll rediscover the joy and depth of each technique, allowing Babaji’s presence to unfold through your experience.
Sacred Space

The ashram and temple are living spaces of prayer and peace, created to nurture your inner journey. Here, the sacred atmosphere gently rejuvenates the body, calms the mind, and rekindles the heart’s connection to the Divine.
Inspiring Satsang

Throughout the retreat, you’ll receive uplifting satsangs on the deeper meaning of Atma Kriya Yoga—how each technique opens the heart and draws us closer to Divine Love. These sharings offer new insight and renewed inspiration for your daily practice.

Your venue: The Paranitya Narasimha Center

There are few places in this world that are soley dedicated to prayer for humanity. At the Paranitya Narasimha Temple and Ashram, the monks pray day and night, creating an incredibly high vibrational atmosphere of Love and positivity for all to soak in.

On the path of Bhakti – prayer takes the form of ecstatic singing, joyful dancing, delicious blessed food, and spiritual inspiration to align you with your highest purpose and authentic self.

This makes a perfect atmosphere for spiritual rejuvenation and retreat.
