Uluru...
Uluru (also known as Ayers Rock) is the largest monolith in the world, attracting half a million people yearly. To Uluru’s traditional owners, the Anangu Aboriginal people, virtually every facet of the rock has spiritual significance.
Findhorn Foundation...
From small beginnings in 1962 when three people were led by God to create an organic garden, this coastal community now welcomes thousands of visitors to share its philosophy of affinity with nature and attunement to the divinity within all beings.
Maya Spa Wellness Centre...
Local shamans work their magic on you with indigenous plants and treatments to help you on your way to blissed out harmony. The temezcal sweat lodge, the bendy exaltations of the yoga instructor and the proximity of the Caribbean will top it off.
Green Gulch Farm Zen Center...
Also known as the Green Dragon Temple, this Buddhist centre combines Zen meditation – daily classes and weekend workshops – with the discipline of work by incorporating the Green Gulch Farm. The crew that meditates together farms together!
Ladakh...
A developing travel trend is ecospiritualism, and Ladakh is in the thick of it. Part of a very fragile ecosystem – as well as being a Buddhist heartland - ecospiritualists here divide their time between volunteer work and spiritual pursuits.
Kalani Oceanside Retreat...
This tropical retreat near thermal springs in Hawai’i embodies various packages such as yoga escapes, volcano adventures and ‘eruption parties’, along with workshops that teach visitors about Hawai’ian nature and culture.
Rishikesh...
Rishikesh, in the Himalayas, attracts thousands of enlightenment seekers with its numerous spiritual retreats, holy shrines and temples. Rishikesh is acknowledged as the birthplace of yoga, as if that’s not enough endorsement for you.
Koya-san...
This forest-covered tableland is one of Japan’s most beloved spiritual retreats. The founder of the Shingon school of Esoteric Buddhism, Kobo Daishi, established a religious community here in 816 which remains a thriving centre for Japanese Buddhism.
Osho Commune International...
Founded by controversial guru Osho, the commune takes a somewhat unconventional, punning approach to spiritualism, with its ‘zennis’ matches, the Club Meditation complex and the Osho Multiversity.
Varanasi...
Varanasi, perhaps the world’s oldest continuously inhabited city, has been called the ‘Jerusalem of Hinduism’ – the holiest of holy places. It has more than 2000 mosques and temples and 100 ghats (steps descending to the water) along the Ganges.
