There’s a wonderful book written by a woman who has been a very successful real estate developer from Atlanta about meeting a real guru from India. She wrote it about some conversations she had with him, asking him all the questions we all want answered about life.
It’s fabulous! Changed my life and then I got to meet him too. A real guru like this shows you how to take charge of your life, not what people think at all – that they control your life.
I’m 58 and have more energy than I did at 40, because I’m less anxious and afraid than I’ve ever been.
Way deeper than most of the strip mall/workout yoga stuff that’s out there.
If you want to check it out, it’s on Amazon and he’s coming to the US in April in Marina del Rey, CA. www.midnightswiththemystic.com

OOOOh! I’ve been wanting to read this book! I heard an interview with the author. Now it goes to the top of my list.
Thanks!
Thanks for telling me about this. I’m 57 and have been looking for something to inspiration. It’s at the top of my list too! It’s at the top of my list too – for the easter weekend coming up!
Thanks for posting this – I’m going to check it out!
Thanks for the recommendation. Do you know the date and location of his Marina del Rey appearance? I would love to attend.
Hi Barbara, It’s April 8 thru 11 at the Ritz in Marina Del Rey, He’s also doing a free talk on the 4th in Norwalk, CA
They’re both posted on the site http://www.ishafoundation.org
Kathyisha – I’m having trouble finding this event and these dates on the isha foundations website. It looks like Sadhguru is in San Francisco April 30-May 1, but I don’t see anything for April 8-11. Can you get on their website and tell me exactly where to look. Thanks.
Hi Sass,
No he’s not doing anything April 8th. He will be at the Isha Institute of Inner-sciences giving free evening talks from May2nd to the 14th.
But April14 to 17, there is a great retreat weekend at the Institute that is teaching Inner Engineering with a trained teacher, and alot of pampering included.
Oh my! I’m really out of date. Duh? March 2010 was when I attended the Austin Inner Engineering week. And the next month, the first VN Retreat. Then I met a man and got sidetracked. Unfortunately, the quest for contentment continues, but there are always forks in the road. In the meanwhile…I have a good friend who is in the serious learning stage – her husband died recently and she has no family – just a few close friends. She is searching for her new ”place” and it occurred to me that the Isha Center may well suit her. If we just came up, got a hotel and came out to the foundation, could we could attend the “free evening talks” …or is this just for those living there? It looks like there are cottages and rooms on site for events – is this is possibilty? I also would like to know more about your decision to pick up and move there, but I’ll respond to your private message. Thanks.
Is there something special about THIS particular (Apr 14-17) weekend Inner Engineering program? I had to pay my own meals and lodging, but the one in Austin, Tx was only $200 for 7 days (5 evenings and the weekend).
Hi Sassy,
Those pesky men can sidetrack us can’t they? haha Yes, it would be wonderful for you and your friend or anyone to come for a visit during the free evening talks. It’s open to the public and there are certainly places to stay here as well as hotels in town.
I always think, how everyone wants to sit “at the feet” so to speak of a sage or someone full of wisdom and listen to what they have to say.
To answer your other question, there is something special about this retreat. It’s onsite at the III Center and will have complimentary reflexology massage, essential oil footbaths, complimentary airport shuttle, picnics and hikes to the waterfall, musical entertainment, 9 gourmet meals, sessions on the bluff in a lovely event tent, and a few things I’m sure I’m forgetting about. haha And the meditation training itself is all in one weekend.
You can contact me offline and we’ll talk some more.
Lots of information to sort out and share with my friend. Is this an Inner Engineering Program or a weekend meditation with a day on each side. If I understand, Sadhguru will be there the last day of this retreat for the nightly talks. Will he participating in the last day of the retreat? Thanks. hg
oh i see what you’re looking at , that post was last year-2010 april 8 to 11
