What is Dhyana?

In Patanjali’s eight-limbed yoga tradition, Dhyana refers to sustained meditative concentration. During the retreat, participants study Samarth’s approach and follow a structured sequence of practices over four months.

Who can take part?

The retreat is open to those who are currently taking or have completed MOD. Dhyana practices build on the sequence and terminology introduced in MOD.

The programme may be taken once, in accordance with the format established by its creator.

How the retreat works

  • The materials are hosted on GetCourse.
  • During the first 3 days, 2 videos are released each day: one in the morning and one in the evening.
  • Later modules are released at intervals of 1–2 weeks.
  • On Saturdays, Samarth answers participant questions live on Zoom.
  • The programme lasts 4 months.
  • Video materials remain available for 365 days from the start of the retreat.
