Weekend retreat with Pir Zia Inayat Khan
“Life is more than a journey, it is a pilgrimage, a voyage of devotion, surrender, and ecstasy. The sacred shrines of the world are living symbols of the waystations of the path that leads to the Divine goal. Murad Hassil in the dunes of Katwijk is one such shrine. In this weekend retreat, we will gather as pilgrims, offering our homage to the Divine light glimmering in the dunes as we advance into the Mystery from which all life has come.”
