Please mark these dates on your calendar, and register
for what will be a profoundly moving and transformative weekend:
dropped out of the world and into the Blessing-Grace of Bhagavan
Adi Da!
Nestled
in the heart of the northern Catskills (at the base of Windham
Mountain), the Windham Retreat Center is a beautiful private mansion
that affords the opportunity to drop out of your work-a-day life
into a serene setting conducive to relaxation, refreshment, and
rejuvenation.
The Adidam community invites you to join your East Coast/Eastern
Canada devotee and public friends for what is always a life-changing
event. Twice yearly, Adidam retreats are held at Windham Retreat
Center and each time the Gifts of Bhagavan Adi Da are most profoundly
given and received.
This year's Summer retreat is devoted to the life and teachings
of Avatar Adi Da Samraj, and how they enable one to live a spiritual
life and fruitfully engage a spiritual practice.
Retreat amenities include:
videos of Adi Da speaking and granting His Divine Blessing
sacred musical offerings
stories of Adi Da's work with devotees
presentations of Adi Da’s "Transcendental Realism" Image-Art
open and in-depth discussions about Adi Da's Life and Teachings
study, relaxation, and periods of quiet reflection and silent
contemplation
expert instruction in hatha yoga and calisthenics
rest and relaxation; time for contemplative walks at the retreat
center in the heart of the Catskill Mountains
the good company of Adi Da's devotees and friends
finely prepared vegetarian meals
Adi Da Samraj has given the world an incomparable
Revelation of Reality and Truth. And He offers all a Spiritual
opportunity of the most profound and highest kind. Please join
us as we enjoy together the numberless Gifts of practical wisdom,
Spiritual Blessing, and Divine Enlightenment that Adi Da continues
to shower on humankind, even beyond His physical lifetime.
Come with an open mind and heart! You will be
delighted by what you hear and see and feel.
Windham Retreat Center offers a unique, relaxing
and beautiful circumstance to enhance a deep, contemplative
experience. All meals (vegetarian) and two nights lodging are
included. Please inquire about ride sharing.
The retreat will be hosted by Anthony
Costabile. Anthony is a certified Adidam speaker,
and the Director of Adidam
Midwest. He has been a devotee of Adi Da Samraj since
1975. He has hosted this Windham Retreat several times
before. He has resided in Adidam's Sanctuaries in California,
Hawaii, and Fiji, where he received direct guidance from
Adi Da, both in practical life-wisdom and esoteric Spiritual
practice. Anthony is a professional teacher and school
administrator. He is a writer and principal educator for
Adidam, traveling internationally to introduce audiences
around the world to Adi Da Samraj and The Reality-Way
of Adidam.
Responses to past Adidam retreats at Windham:
This was a very moving and heart-felt time in my life.
The exquisite art and chanting, the videos and Teaching
of Adi Da, the devotees hosting the retreat — all of this
beautified existence and moves me to a great depth of gratitude.

When I left that day
there was a definite transformational shift in me. Something opened, something
broke, something left, something came. What that something was, I don’t know.
I just know that it was the end of the end and the beginning of the beginning.
