Welcome

Anubhuti means “to experience”

The Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual Organization created Anubhuti Retreat Center to be a place where people of all backgrounds can explore their spirituality. Anubhuti is staffed by volunteers who have benefited from the insights and practices offered by the Brahma Kumaris and give their time freely and happily. All our retreats, workshops, and courses are run by experienced facilitators who have years of experience as Raja Yoga practitioners and teachers. Many also hold various professional qualifications and are keenly aware of the challenges of bringing spirituality into everyday life.

The Retreat Center sits on top of a hill near the San Francisco Bay, surrounded by 1,600 acres of protected open space, water and a wildlife preserve, with a full 360° degree view. Accommodation at the retreat center is comprised of 2-3 person shared bedrooms with private bath set among landscaped gardens with spectacular views of the Bay, Pacheco Pond, Novato Creek and the rolling hills of Marin County.
