Retreat with Eli

Meet Heart to Heart: The Most Intimate Retreat of the Year

"If you are willing, you can experience all the layers of mind and emotion, all the way down to the core and through to emptiness. It takes no special space or preparation, only the willingness to face everything. It is only through this facing that you can discover the total insubstantiality of all waves of identity.”

~ Eli

"I love Eli’s straight forward simplicity and the depth which I feel with him. I am so thankful that sometimes a free evening is offered in this way!"

This Retreat is a space in which to tell the truth about what really matters, what you truly want, and to expose every imagined obstacle to true happiness. This is a time of deep peace and letting the mind stop. You will have an opportunity to withdraw from your usual life activities, and to let yourself sink into the vast unknown. We are here to realize without a doubt that you are source and wellspring of all happiness.

Meet Eli

Eli Jaxon-Bear is an American spiritual teacher and author of several ground-breaking books including, Wake Up and Roar, Sudden Awakening, and Fixation to FreedomThe Enneagram of Liberation. He lives in Ashland, Oregon, with his wife of fifty years,  Gangaji, who is a world renowned spiritual teacher. Before he met his final teacher, Sri H.W.L. Poonja - Papaji, in 1990, he was best known for his new model of the Enneagram and Ego and synthesizing a radically new approach for training therapists during a decade of leading the certification program at Esalen Institute. Now he infuses his mastery and depth of experience with his teacher’s transmission of a silent mind and open heart, opening the possibility for final liberation through self-realization.

Eli has taught hundreds of  retreats all over the world, working with thousands of people to discover their true nature. His mastery is reflected in his capacity to work with individuals directly during the retreats and courses, both to identify the correct ego fixation, and to assist the student to wake up from the trance of their personal identity.

"I was rooted in the fear that simply being is not enough. But what a great misconception. The peace I seek, and hear in your words, I find only by being nothing at all. There’s the gold. There’s beauty. Thank you Eli"
