Sacred music, Meditation and

deep nature  

The vision ..

Harnessing the combined  power of Sacred music, nature and Sadhana.

This sanctuary  has been crafted as an offering to life and the global community as well as an ecological project to enhance and preserve the indigenous species of the Serra de estrela . 

It functions as a place  for people wanting to practice and learn sacred music, meditate as well as retreat for those who simply want to unplug and re-wild in the nature. This is not a commercial retreat centre, this is a rustic off-grid simple hermitage for those who want deep quietness and connection to themselves and nature. 

The location 

The Sanctuary is held 1000 meters up in the edge of the Serra de Estrela mountain range in Portugal.  We have a sweeping  west facing unbroken view off the sky and sunset. It's in a protected ecological zone with no other development for many miles around. Settled in an undisturbed  natural landscape of granite boulders and forests  with incredible walks through the mountains to hidden magical crystal water pools and streams. The actual land belonging to the sanctuary itself has a stunning landscape with its own spring water.
