🍁 Open Heart Autumn Retreat – Porvoo, Finland | October 2026 🍂

In early October, practitioners from across the world gathered in beautiful Porvoo, Finland, for an inspiring week of meditation, healing, and Dharma teachings under the guidance of Amrita Baba.

The retreat focused on healing, revitalizing the physical body, and deepening the integration of awareness with the body. Our daily practices included Rainbow Body Yoga, Immortality Exercises, standing meditation, Guru Yoga, mantra chanting, and powerful healing techniques.

✨ A special highlight was learning new methods of revitalizing the body through cosmic energy, drawing upon universal chi or prana to replenish our inner energy resources.

The retreat was a beautiful combination of intensive practice, profound Dharma teachings, and shared healing experiences.

🙏 Heartfelt gratitude to Amrita Baba, all the Acharyas, and everyone who joined us in person and online for this wonderful week of practice and connection!

A heartfelt thank you to dear Amrita Baba for your time and priceless teachings during our September Online Weekend Retreat, held 4–6 September. ❤️🙏🏻

With deep gratitude, we received the blessings of our lineage Gurus through Baba’s powerful transmissions. It was a beautiful and fulfilling weekend of practice, teachings, and connection with the sangha.

During the retreat talk, Baba spoke about the need for truly dedicated and professional Western yogis and yoginis in a world that is increasingly on fire. It has long been Baba’s sincere wish to train practitioners who can devote themselves deeply to the yogic path and help spread the Dharma in the West.

During the Atiyoga session, Baba gave us a beautiful Dzogchen transmission and excellent pointers for practice. We were reminded not to chase after what feels pleasant whenever something unpleasant arises, but to remain open and present with whatever is.
Nothing needs to be excluded or rejected. Everything can be embraced and met with awareness.

Baba also taught us the Side Chakra System and Agastya’s version of Vajra Body, known as Tummo or Candali Practice, as well as new dimensions of the Vajra Breath practice.

Thank you, dear Baba, and our lineage masters Guru Padmasambhava, Yeshe Tsogyal, and Bodhidharma, for your guidance and blessings. ❤️

Our next Open Heart Retreat will take place in Porvoo, Finland, 3–10 October, both in person and online via Zoom. There are still a few places available in person. We warmly welcome you to join us! 🙏🏻

May all beings benefit!

With gratitude,
Amrita Rani

Open Heart Summer Retreat 2026
”Thank you, Amrita Baba, for yet another superb retreat filled with radiant insight and profound transmissions of our true nature.

Months of drought ended with rain showers and a thunderstorm as the retreat began. The air itself seemed charged, echoing the rumble of the river beside the Open Heart ashram.

Together, 18 practitioners immersed themselves in the Dharma as it is practiced in Open Heart. Our true nature is clarity, love, and compassion, not as abstract concepts, but as lived experience: a clear mind, an open heart, and a body infused with the nectar of our body of light.

Throughout the retreat, we practiced interrupting the momentum of samsara, not only in the mind, but in all our bodies.

We received two profound empowerments of the Divine Mother: Mahakundalini Shakti, representing the pure energies of Prana, Bindu, and Amrita, and Bhudevi (Sacred Earth), grounding the pure nature of the physical body through yogic practice and immortality exercises.

We return home with a deeper experiential understanding of the path to full enlightenment. Even brief moments of recognition leave an inner knowing that no external explanation can replace.

Deep gratitude to Amrita Baba for the teachings and transmissions, to Amrita Rani for organizing the retreat, to all the Acharyas for the morning Rainbow Body Yoga sessions, to everyone who offered Karma Yoga, and to every practitioner who shared this journey. Practicing together is the true home of the Sangha.

May all who have the merit to practice the Dharma find traditions that truly lead to enlightenment.

May all beings be free. 🙏”
- Sangita, ordained member of Open Heart sangha

Words of Amrita Sangita:
”Thank you Baba for the last satsang of this training season 🙏

This time around we had a chance to join the session in person, and feel the powerful transmission.

Through generating bodhicitta, Amrita Baba guided us through the external, internal to the secret aspect of ta***ic practices, where we connect with our innate buddha nature and our habitual mind and tendencies drop away.

Taking the practice even further with the powerful transmission, Baba pointed out the collapsing of samsara and nirvana into the one sameness, also known as One Taste.

Thank you Baba for this wonderful opportunity to meet you and for the chance to practice together 🙏

The next training season starts in August/September. In the mean time, you can join Amrita Rani ’s Thursday sessions or the July Summer retreat.

Monsoon showers of blessings to all!”

Amrita Sangita,
ordained member of Open Heart sangha

We are exceptionally fortunate to have access to a ta***ic practice called the Rainbow Body Yoga (RBY), which was given to Amrita Baba from Padmasambhava. Traditionally, the highest yoga teachings were often difficult to access, requiring extensive travel, personal connections, or years of preparation. Today, ordinary people from all walks of life have the opportunity to learn RBY through an affordable online format, making authentic advanced spiritual training available to far more practitioners than ever before.

Already 28 practitioners have attained realization of emptiness through Rainbow Body Yoga. While some had undergone an awakening prior to beginning the practice, most started from an unawakened state and awakened through Amrita Baba’s method known as the Two-Part Formula.

In the Mahāyāna tradition, realization of emptiness (śūnyatā) is regarded as an extraordinarily rare attainment. Classical texts such as the Heart Sutra, Diamond Sutra, and the vast Prajñāpāramitā literature present the direct realization of emptiness as a profound breakthrough that liberates one from the fundamental causes of suffering. Against this traditional backdrop, the results reported by practitioners of Rainbow Body Yoga are especially noteworthy, as they suggest that a clear and effective method can help sincere practitioners progress through the stages of awakening in a direct and systematic way.

As practitioners deepen their training in Rainbow Body Yoga, they can practice with confidence, knowing that the method provides a clear and systematic path toward successive awakenings. Through sustained practice, one gradually learns to recognize the mind’s selfing mechanism with increasing precision, seeing through ever subtler forms of identification. In this way, the process of awakening continues to deepen, culminating in the realization of emptiness itself, a realization that Mahāyāna Buddhism has long regarded as one of the rarest and most precious attainments on the spiritual path.
