FREE FROM BONDAGE

This retreat was a unique one indeed, with its unique and special method. The method helped us to go deep into ourselves without beating round the bush. To keep this type of retreat ones willingness and sensitivity are sufficient. Some of us might have found it peculiar, but its effectiveness is lasting and genuine. I am convinced of this because earlier I have been woking on self -awareness and it has helped me much. At this retreat I have discovered that negative feelings could be burnt up through awareness. It is in fact pleasant surprise for me. I am also happy to realise that through this simple method of self-awareness one`s deep buried past with its negative experiences and feelings can be brought into consciousness from the subconscious mind and be healed.

This method does not need much help from the outside if we are sensitive to our feelings. If we apply this method on ourselves, I think much of our personal relationships could be improved, because we relate with each other with our personality whether it is positive or negative. At times our burried anger and fear take various shapes and forms. This causes much unhappiness within ourselves and in the life of others. To empty out these poisons which are destroying us we have to simply use this method. This method of self-awareness can be applied on ourselves even when we are working.This can bring physical and mental healing to each of us.

Congratulations! Fr.Vijayanand, for the originality of this Kind of retreat.

I have experienced a better clearance of the clouded past. There was an experience of the negative feelings being released from the body. Though we did not spend much time in prayer a lot of negativities have been emptied and made place for God, others and ourselves. Of course it demands responsibility and hard work towards this inner freedom.
