Kamala’s approach: integral Non-Duality

Non-duality points to the realization that there is only one reality, not a sum of separate entities. Life is just one total flow, not a sum of individual lives put together.

Kamala teaches integral Non-Duality as a total experience. Her guidance allows us to experience the deep peace as well as the infinite space of our being-consciousness. It is a practical and empirical approach that encompasses the experience of our true self, the relationship with others and the reality of the world.

Kamala teaches through yoga, meditation, self-inquiry and uniquely-designed sensorial and contemplative experimentations.

Day after day, as one integrates the teachings, the experience of peace, openness and non-separation becomes more alive and tangible. That’s called happiness and love.

Be part of Kamala’s I am = I care program: Plant-a-tree ceremony

Kamala carefully picks retreat locations where Nature is preserved and respected. She makes a point to bring together the inner work of reconnexion with the outer act of regenerating nature. To care for nature becomes an extension of the Self, it is part of our role as human beings on this planet. By planting a tree, we consciously reconnect to this aspect of our humanity. Kamala’s retreat offers you the opportunity to be part of this necessary global move.
