| The Third International Yoga Festival: "The
Wonders Of The World Peace Pilgrimage: From Giza to Petra"
May 30- June 7, 2008 which promises to be a very special
major event! Our Festival begins in Egypt where we will
embrace the ancient Pyramids of Giza. A special ceremony
will take place at the Khufu Pyramid in addition to our
daily yoga activities while in Egypt. On the third day, we shall then travel within the dramatic Jordan Rift Valley to the lowest point on Earth, the Dead Sea. Experience the sacred and unique healing properties of the mineral rich sea found nowhere else on the planet. Inhale the pure oxygen rich air as you magically float on the surface of the sea. The Dead Sea program will be a " yoga vacation," filling you with a sense of inner peace and complete rejuvenation. A short distance from our base, we will travel to the spiritually significant Mount Nebo, the burial place and passing of the prophet Moses where amazing views of Jerusalem and Bethlehem also await us. We shall also visit the baptismal site of Jesus. Perhaps the most extraordinarily breathtaking part of our spiritual journey will be to the recently appointed Wonder Of The World, the 2,000 year old ancient City of Petra. Carved into the rose- colored sandstone Mountains, Petra stuns visitors with its magnificent beauty and grandeur. |
