Welcome to Divinya - a world of beauty, love and grace.

A pilgrimage is a profound journey towards one’s deepest self. Even though a pilgrimage is usually a walk to a place of religious or spiritual significance, it is mostly about the inner journey and inner growth that can take place within oneself.

Often people go on a pilgrimage when they find themselves at a crossroad in their life, seeking for a new direction or a new beginning. Pilgrims can also be seekers of truth, seekers of a deeper meaning in life, who want to look for an answer to their quest within themselves.

In life we do so many things, but still, we might have the feeling that something is missing. Deep inside we might have the question of whether there isn’t something more, something which we can’t really put a finger on.

When nothing we do, gives a satisfying answer, going on a pilgrimage and spending time at a pilgrimage place can bring new insights and inspiration.

Going on a pilgrimage means to step out of the daily routine, withdrawing a little bit from the engagements and concerns of worldly life, taking a break from all the stories of the past or from future plans, so that there is space to look deeply within, to reflect and contemplate.

It allows for something to open up within oneself, so that something very profound, very magnificent can reveal itself. One can get in touch again with one’s innermost core, coming closer to one’s innate Divinity.

Spending time at a pilgrimage place is an occasion for having a life-changing, transformational experience. It is a time of letting go of the old, so that something new can come into one’s life.

A pilgrimage can inspire one for years to come, maybe even for the rest of one’s life. It is a very precious opportunity to make a living experience of spirituality as part of one’s sacred journey.

Many pilgrimage sites in the world are places where once upon a time, a saint or realized Master lived in a spiritual community as a sangha. Over the decades these places remain as memorial sites of wisdom and the presence of divine grace and therefore are visited by pilgrims to come to be touched by that experience.

The uniqueness of the pilgrimage place Divinya, is that there is no ‘once upon a time’. Divinya is home to a living sangha and a place that is purely dedicated to the inner growth of everybody who spends time here.

Here lives a group of seekers who have found a way of living that fulfills their innermost longing. In Divinya, spirituality is a lived reality that can be experienced right now. The sangha of Divinya is a living and learning community which is inspired by the Teachings of Guruji Sri Vast.

Pilgrims have the invaluable opportunity to take part in the Teachings during Satsangs and retreats and to taste the profound, devotional living experience in Divinya. Being a pilgrim in Divinya means spending one week with the sangha, which can bring insights to reflect on life and to find new inspiration for one’s own path.

One can explore how spirituality can be practically brought into daily life. Spirituality in Divinya is not some exotic practice, but a way of life. Divinya is a place where the dream of a better world is not only hoped for, but where a group of people come together to manifest it, making it into a lived reality of this moment.

During their stay in Divinya, pilgrims actively take part in all areas of the community life, including morning meditations, yoga classes, gatherings, eating together, singing, karma yoga (selfless service) and much more.
