What if the questions still left unanswered by Western philosophy had already been asked earlier, and answered in the East?

Science and philosophy may point to consciousness being more than just brain activity – but is there a more precise definition?

What insights can Vedic philosophy offer into the nature of reality, the self, and the human condition?

This June, join author and philosopher Nitesh Gor for a 4-day residential retreat in Oxford.

Together, we’ll explore teachings from the Upanishads, Vedas, Bhagavad Gita and more, examining how these ideas relate to Western philosophers such as Kant, Aristotle, and Descartes.

Mornings include guided meditation and nature walks, with music and storytelling in the evenings.

Designed for curious, open-minded thinkers.

No background in philosophy or the Vedic tradition is needed!
