Roots of Bhaktī
North India Pilgrimage
15th - 26th November 2026

Bhaktī Yoga is the yoga of the heart. The path of surrender. Of seeing the Divine not just in temples, but in the smile of a stranger, the river you sit beside, and the emotions that arise in any given moment.
To walk the path of Bhaktī is to move through life with grace and intention, to lead from the heart, and to feel the pull towards something truer, and be courageous enough to follow it.
There’s something about being in India that cuts through the mental clutter.
These sacred lands have a way of reflecting your essence back to you, without the roles, expectations, or the performance we default to in daily life. It shows you who you are underneath it all.
Devotion in India is a real antidote to modern overwhelm. It’s not dramatic, it’s steady and consistent, integrated in a way that actually changes something inside you.
The sacred temples, the circuit breaker of daily routine, the kindness of strangers and ceremony infused in everything… it all works on your nervous system without you needing to force anything.
If you sense that something inside is calling for renewal. Maybe life’s felt a little loud. Maybe old patterns have been tugging at your sleeve. Maybe you’ve been moving so fast you can’t quite hear your own inner voice anymore?
This experience doesn’t send you back as someone that you aren’t, it sends you back as a truer YOU. Expect a quieter mind, a deeper inner knowing, and a heard-led steadiness that allows you to move through life with grace.
Where are we going on this pilgrimage?
Over 10 nights and 11 days, we will journey to three sacred towns:
Rishikesh, Haridwar and Kainchi Dham
This is where our pilgrimage begins.
Three days to land, ground, and settle into the energy of this country through Kriya, Breathwork, Yoga Asana, and Mantra. We’ll also explore temples, visit ancient meditation caves, and take part in Puja and Yagya ceremonies.
Notable Exploration: Opening Yagya Fire Ceremony, Beatles Ashram, Vashishta Cave, Practicing yoga by Ma Ganga river, Ganga Aarti Evening Ceremony, Gayatri Puja
Rishikesh:
Haridwar:
Haridwar is full-power devotion. You just step right into the heart of it.
In Hardiwar we will be staying at Anandamayi Ma’s ashram.
Anandamayi Ma was one of India’s most respected female saints, not because she set out to be anything special, but because her presence affected people in a way they couldn’t explain. She lived an incredibly simple life, yet carried a depth of stillness and compassion that drew people from all over the world.
Staying at her ashram in Haridwar gives you a direct experience of this: a place built around presence, simplicity, and quiet inner strength.
Notable Exploration: Famous Har Ki Pauri for Ganga Aarti, Anandamayi Ma’s Ashram, Optional Sacred dip in Ganga, Kirtan, Kriya Practice
In Kainchi Dham, we will spend our time at the home of Neem Karoli Baba, often called Maharaj-ji.
Maharaj-ji was a highly respected Indian saint known for again, his simplicity, his humour, and the way he taught through presence more than words. His whole approach was practical: love everyone, serve everyone, and remember God.
He’s also the guru of Krishna Das and Ram Dass, two people who helped share his teachings with the West.
