Retreat Overview
When life becomes overwhelming, you must stand apart, go on retreat, fast, readdress the fundamentals of life, the real purpose. Get the Great Instruction. Embrace it truly. And then leave your retreat. People take retreats for just this purpose. It has traditionally been understood that retreat is completely necessary. You cannot make simplicity out of confusion. You must step aside.

Retreat Host
James
Steinberg has been a devotee of Avatar Adi Da Samraj
since
1973. He has been personally schooled by Adi Da in the entire
Great Tradition of humankind's religious and spiritual literature.
He is the author of the books, Love
of the God-Man and Divine
Distraction, both about the Guru-devotee relationship
(on which he is a world authority). James has been Graced to
live with Adi Da Samraj in His Island Hermitage, Adi Da Samrajashram in Fiji, and at The Mountain Of Attention Sanctuary in California.
He has represented Adi Da Samraj in meetings with some of the
most famous Spiritual figures in the world, and is a regular
visitor to India in completion of a variety of Sacred projects.
James attended Harvard University and the University of California,
Berkeley, graduating in 1972. He has two daughters and lives
in California.
James will speak to us not only from the perspective of his
extensive study of the Spiritual traditions via books and personal
encounters with many genuine gurus in India and elsewhere, but
also, and more significantly, from his grace-filled life as
a devotee of Adi Da Samraj.
If one wishes to understand the sea, ask a sailor, a
lover of the sea. By the same token, if one wishes to
understand the heart and nature of the Guru-devotee relationship,
ask a real devotee devoted to a real Guru, a teacher and
Master of the heart. James Steinberg is such a devotee,
whose scholarship bows before insights and knowledge that
could only be gained from this living relationship.
