APPLICATION FOR GUEST STAYS AT MONTE SAHAJA
Here you can apply for upcoming Guest Stays at Monte Sahaja. Although no stay is currently scheduled, we review applications on an ongoing basis, so submitting yours now means it will already be on hand when future stays are announced.
A kind reminder that visits to Monte Sahaja are by invitation only, and the best time to visit is during a scheduled stay. We appreciate your support in waiting for the next announced stay before making travel arrangements to visit.
🔆 To apply, you’ll need to have been on Sahaja Express for at least 6 months at the time of application.
Moojibaba would like to work with those who are deeply committed to Self-discovery and have been consistently following his guidance for some time.
The satsangs on Sahaja Express allow each one to be in the current pulse of Moojibaba’s sharing, and are essential preparation for making the most of a visit to Monte Sahaja.
We are looking at having a Guest Stay later this year, and will email Sahaja Express as soon as it’s confirmed. At that point, you will be able to express your interest if you would like to join the stay.
If we do have a Guest Stay, as the demand is usually greater than available spaces, we will likely need to select participants by lottery.
Only one application is possible per Sahaja Express account. If you are sharing an account with another person in your household and would like to submit an additional application, please send us an email here.
Please know we always aim to provide as much notice as possible when scheduling events, and have it in our hearts to facilitate each one to visit Monte Sahaja who has a deep calling to do so.
Mental Health and Well Being
Satsang with Mooji is profound in guiding seekers to genuine and lasting Self-discovery. However, deep contemplation may not be suitable for those who have a history of any serious mental health condition, particularly in a concentrated satsang environment such as Monte Sahaja. If you have been previously diagnosed with a mental health condition, are currently undergoing treatment, or are feeling emotionally or mentally unstable or unwell, Monte Sahaja may not be suitable for you at this time. If you’re invited for a visit and the environment proves incompatible with your well-being, we may decide to pause or conclude your visits. Find out more here→
About Monte Sahaja
A visit to Monte Sahaja offers dedicated students of Moojibaba the opportunity to be immersed in the supportive satsang environment here. Visitors are invited to approach their time at Monte Sahaja with openness and integrity—with a conscious effort to make full use of the supportive and spiritually uplifting environment that Sahaja offers.
Monte Sahaja is Moojibaba’s home and the Centre for Self Realisation. It is located in the hills of the Alentejo region, about two hours south of Lisbon in the least populated area of Portugal. Monte Sahaja is a centre deeply supportive of meditation and Self-inquiry, with many contemplative areas created by Moojibaba himself. It is entirely dedicated to serving those in search of the realisation of the Self. Monte Sahaja is also a lighthouse that shares Moojibaba’s teachings worldwide.
Schedule and Daily Flow
Visitors are invited to approach their time at Monte Sahaja with openness and integrity—with a conscious effort to make full use of the supportive and spiritually uplifting environment that Sahaja offers. We have a daily program which includes contemplations and most recent satsang recordings. Rather than creating a satsang schedule in advance, Moojibaba meets us in satsang spontaneously on some days, when he is called to do so.
Sustainability
Alentejo is a tranquil and beautiful area of Portugal with a rich cultural heritage and a slower pace of life. It is also known for its hot and dry summers that make it prone to drought. As a conscious choice to conserve water, over the years we have implemented various water saving methods including compost toilets, bucket showers and a water recycling system. We have found these systems to work very well, not only for the low impact on the region’s resources, but also for the simplicity and harmony that this conscious way of living brings.
Facilities and Accommodation
Although Monte Sahaja is beautiful and comfortable, the facilities are simple and modest. The accommodations have lights, however they are without power points. The land of Monte Sahaja is quite hilly, so a basic level of physical fitness is needed to walk around the land. However, we do have a Buggy service for those who require it. The accommodations vary between a 5 or 10 minute walk from the central area—we allocate the accommodations appropriately to suit each one’s fitness level. Despite the spaciousness of the land, each living area feels held inside the embrace of Sahaja.
