There is still time to join this special retreat with Amrita Baba, starting this Friday in Birmingham and online.

Open Heart Birmingham Retreat
Secrets of Bone Marrow Washing
5–7 June | In-Person & Online

Bone Marrow Washing is a rare internal practice traditionally attributed to Bodhidharma. Through Baba’s transmission and guidance, this profound method becomes accessible, enjoyable, and deeply transformative. The practice offers a unique opportunity to purify and refine the body’s subtle energetic system and tissues while bringing fresh insight into the unity of body and mind.

The retreat is open to both beginners and experienced practitioners. Whether you join in person or online, you will be fully included in the shared field of practice.

If you feel called to participate, you are warmly welcome.

A heartfelt milestone in our sangha’s journey 🤍
Ordination – May 2026, Switzerland.
Amrita Baba with his ordained students.

Ordained students are close disciples of Baba, united by a deep bond of trust, friendship, and shared commitment. It is like a second family. They hold a special role within the Open Heart Sangha, and in time, some may serve as lineage teachers and carry positions of trust within the community.

The first ordination took place in 2022 in Wales, when Simha Karl Henrik, Mani Monica Olivia, Amrita Uma Gwen Hollis, and me, Amrita Rani stepped forward in deep dedication.

Now, at our Spring Retreat 2026, Helena Sangita Nymark, Bodhi Bob Andersson, Dipa Tiina Wanhala, Silvia Kripa Schüssler, and Bhole Baba James Ferguson were ordained, continuing this living lineage.

I honor their commitment for the sake of all beings and rejoice in this beautiful step on the path. Congratulations to newly ordained dharma brothers and sisters! 🙏🏻

Gratitude and joy fill my heart after our beautiful 8-day Spring Retreat with beloved Amrita Baba in the peaceful Swiss landscape. ✨

The theme, “God, Guru and Self are One,” was lived as a direct inner experience. Through the Amrita Abba empowerment and Baba’s powerful transmissions, many felt deep karmic burdens dissolve into clarity and peace.

We practiced Immortality Exercise, Rainbow Body Yoga, and Guru Yoga with Bodhidharma, and received profound teachings, including practices for removing harmful external influences with the help of Isha Natha (Jesus Christ) and Archangel Michael.

A touching refuge ceremony welcomed six students, and on the final day five received ordination. The retreat, named “Vidyadhara, holder of knowledge, honored six students for their inner realization.

Deep gratitude to all participants, organizers, and dear Baba for the blessings and compassion shared.

The next Open Heart Retreat will be held 5–7 June in Birmingham, England. All who feel called are warmly welcome.

With love,
Amrita Rani

This powerful video was recorded in Dublin in 2017 — and it carries something truly special.

During and after this guided practice by Amrita Baba, many participants awakened to their true nature. It was not just a talk about awakening — it was a direct transmission and living experience.

Since 2014, Baba has been teaching the Two-Part Formula — a clear and practical method for recognizing and stabilizing the selfless state. This video captures that living teaching in action.

If you are sincerely longing for awakening, this is not just inspiration. It is an invitation.

Watch with openness. Practice sincerely. See for yourself.

To ensure inclusivity for our global community, we offer a hybrid experience, allowing for either in-person attendance amidst the serene Swiss Alps or online participation via Zoom. The retreat will take place from April 24th to May 2nd, 2026. We look forward to sharing this sacred space of growth and inner discovery with you.

Bodhi: ”We just finished the March weekend retreat here in Slovenia and online. I can confidently report that our sessions were exceptionally powerful and full of hands-on instructions on how to know first hand our innermost and ever pure true Self, that was never touched by negative habits, conflicts, or trauma, and was always full of joy, ease, and natural, impartial satisfaction.

Spending this time under the guidance of Amrita Baba has shown me beyond all doubt that by working like this we can, with practice, transform our own experience into its most real and natural state, the very same that the ancient sages and masters has told us about, in this very life, for the benefit of all beings. In fact anyone can, because we all share the same buddhanature.

I extend my most sincere gratitude towards our teacher Amrita Baba for selflessly bringing these spectacular teachings to us in a way that is easy to understand and apply for us who feel the call. Bringing home with me a fresh barrage of tools and knowledge I first make prostrations of supplication at his lotus feet, and make heartfelt prayers that we will see each other again soon.

Speaking of… Please, join us on our next retreat, which is 8-day long Spring Retreat in Switzerland. This retreat will be LIVE (in-person) and will also be accessible ONLINE. The Spring Retreat starts on 24th of April and ends on 2nd of May. See you there!”

Baba: ”The highest of all ta***ic empowerments is the Direct Introduction into the Nature of Mind. I give that all the time. The way I give it is very dynamic, just like I was taught by my gurus. I have not seen any living teacher give it like I do - with lots of power that pushes the samsaric layers out of the way, that lifts up the student’s karma. But that’s how I was taught, and therefore that’s why I give it like that.”
