Retreat Costs

Entrance to Academy of Better World, Mount Abu, Rajasthan

We believe that spiritual knowledge can only be shared and not sold, and therefore all of our lectures, workshops and seminars at this retreat and around the world are always offered free of charge as a service to the community. As our guests, all of your meals are also complimentary.

However, costs for running the retreat are inevitably incurred for administration, retreat centre overheads, and accommodation, and we therefore accept voluntary contributions.  All of our centres including the retreat centre, run on voluntary donations, and funds go directly towards ensuring that others can also benefit from these events in the future, so your contributions are important to us.  If you would like any further information regarding contributions, speak to your country co-ordinator.

Other Costs

Please note that transport from your own country to Ahmedabad Airport is at your own cost, and there will be a shared charge for the taxi which will be arranged to take you from Ahmedabad to the retreat place.
