The Elating Spiritualtouch Winter Retreat 2018 A beautiful opportunity to obtain uplifting education, a perfect place for innocent entertainment and a strong reason for spiritual elevation greeted young adults as they geared up for their much awaited Spiritualtouch winter retreat. Each year two such residential retreats are organised at the Shrimad Rajchandra Ashram Dharampur to provide youngsters from grade 7 to grade 12 a perfect environment to bloom to their fullest within and without. The enthusiastic troupe comprising young participants from various places across India reached the avenue on Friday, 9th November for a fun-filled 2-day Shibir. Chilly mornings commenced with energetic aerobics followed by sessions on inner engineering based on the literary compositions of Param Krupalu Dev, Shrimad Rajchandraji. To channel their bubbling energies and natural curiosity a host of innovative activities such as robotics, scavenger hunts, etc. were planned. To imbibe within these tender beings a feeling of compassion for all forms of life, a Grow Green Drive was organised, where they were blessed to receive manure from the pious hands of Pujya Gurudevshri. The highlight of the days were undoubtedly the cultural celebrations that took place in the grand amphitheatre overlooked by the majestic 34-feet Pratimaji of Param Krupalu Dev. The innocent youngsters expressed their love towards their best Friend, Philosopher and Guide – Pujya Gurudevshri through heartfelt dedications such as foot tapping dances, meaningful skits and melodious bhakti. They were gifted cherished moments with the benevolent Sadguru through photo sessions and personal interactions. On the second night of the retreat, an enthralling magic show was also staged in the Amphitheater. Thus be it cooking delicious meals for Pujya Gurudevshri during Master Chef classes or dancing spontaneously around Him, everything was a medium of divine connection. The Master also blessed the youngsters with the invaluable opportunity to play dandiya with Him. The mystic Master keeps every devotee be it young or old yoked to the higher through myraid ways, one of them being Sahebji’s Football Club. The troupe of young adults had a blast as they watched the final matches for the Dharampur Premier League with Pujya Gurudevshri. Drawn by the Sadguru’s broad vision and unconditional love these budding youth yearn to visit Dharampur again and again. With heavy hearts and tears in their eyes they departed from the Ashram awaiting the blessed day when they could visit again and be with their Beloved Master again.
